We've all been wondering what the hell's wrong with 'em! One down and more to go. So many morons, so little time! I think I got it, the new democrat definition of "bi-polar disorder" is an F.B.I. investigation involving the theft of millions of dollars! HA!

Maam, with all due respect, you have never been a business owner. Your posts are proof you would not have been capable of ever running a business, or any other organization for that matter.

Well, the Bush tax cuts are about to expire. So are you ready to pay more folks? No, not just you 1%'ers. We're talking about you 99%'ers. Yer gonna be getting less in yo' paychecks.

In TN, a family of four making $68K per year, will be paying $3400 more in taxes to help pay for those who don't pay taxes.

"The general pattern is median families in high-income and low-income states are more affected than those in middle-income states. Higher-income families would be disproportionately affected by the imminent AMT changes—particularly those that owe higher than average state income tax, which is deductible under the ordinary tax system but not the Alternative Minimum Tax."

Yeah, sock it to them rich folk. Oh, but wait, what's that you say?

"At the opposite end, low-income states (such as TN) are disproportionately affected because three tax increases from the end of the Bush-era tax cuts—the reduction in the child tax credit, the elimination of the 10% bracket, and the reduced standard deduction for married filers—represent fixed increases that do not depend on income. Therefore, these increases, as a percentage of income, are largest for lower-income families."

Obama - about to screw us all, especially you po folks......

In my case, I was on the telephone in another room, listening to a Friend, who has a very serious problem and I forgot about the Tea Kettle on the Stove and it did exactly that, ran dry and ruined it. I heard it whistling , but I thought it had plenty of water in it. I din't realize that it would run dry so fast. Then, when the water was gone, it stopped whistling, of course, and I forgot about it!
Hey, cut me some slack, it's the first time that I've ever let anything ruin, in the Kettle/Pot line that I had on the stove...I think that's pretty good, considering how much cooking I've done in my Life.:)
My Son bought me that Tea Kettle when he was just a little Guy, and it didn't have a scatch on it! So, I hated burning it up for more reasons than One!

My problem seems to be ADD.I put the pot on with the eggs and head out for the mail I pass the truck which I see has a low tire so I get out the compresser and fill the tire and check the other 3 and go get the mail.The flag is loose so I fix it I check the mail and see a few dandylions and I start pulling them and now I see gravel in the lawn and I get the rake to get it back in the driveway.
It is then that I hear the smoke alarm and realize Im in trouble.There are eggs every where on the range hood stuck to the wall on the cookbooks everywhere.I cuss myself and Farber and promise I'll get some meds and well I never do. So welcome to my world.

Pay attention......the Republicans are the ones wanting to "screw" us because they want to protect their benefactors....the rich. They would gladly throw the rest of us under the bus to protect them. Obama does not want the tax breaks to expire on the middle/lower class. Just the wealthy. Catch up. You been watching to much fox news again.

Sir, with all due respect, you don't know what you're talking about. I think I know if I owned a small business or not and so does did the IRS.

I've posted all about it before...you really should try to keep up, I know it's difficult for People like you, but I have faith that yoy can do it...maybe.
BTW, I filed those Quarterly Tax Reports to the IRS and paid that Unemployment Ins. Fund, at that time $1600.00 annually, for each Employee!

I tried to explain Thanksgiving to a Frenchman:

One of our most important holidays is Thanksgiving Day, known in France as le Jour de Merci Donnant .
Le Jour de Merci Donnant was first started by a group of Pilgrims ( Pelerins ) who fled from l'Angleterre before the McCarran Act to found a colony in the New World ( le Nouveau Monde ) where they could shoot Indians ( les Peaux-Rouges ) and eat turkey ( dinde ) to their hearts' content.

They landed at a place called Plymouth (now a famous voiture Americaine ) in a wooden sailing ship called the Mayflower (or Fleur de Mai ) in 1620. But while the Pelerins were killing the dindes, the Peaux-Rouges were killing the Pelerins, and there were several hard winters ahead for both of them. The only way the Peaux-Rouges helped the Pelerins was when they taught them to grow corn ( mais ). The reason they did this was because they liked corn with their Pelerins.

In 1623, after another harsh year, the Pelerins' crops were so good that they decided to have a celebration and give thanks because more mais was raised by the Pelerins than Pelerins were killed by Peaux-Rouges.

Every year on the Jour de Merci Donnant, parents tell their children an amusing story about the first celebration.

It concerns a brave capitaine named Miles Standish (known in France as Kilometres Deboutish) and a young, shy lieutenant named Jean Alden. Both of them were in love with a flower of Plymouth called Priscilla Mullens (no translation). The vieux capitaine said to the jeune lieutenant :
"Go to the damsel Priscilla ( allez tres vite chez Priscilla), the loveliest maiden of Plymouth ( la plus jolie demoiselle de Plymouth). Say that a blunt old captain, a man not of words but of action ( un vieux Fanfan la Tulipe ), offers his hand and his heart, the hand and heart of a soldier. Not in these words, you know, but this, in short, is my meaning.

"I am a maker of war ( je suis un fabricant de la guerre ) and not a maker of phrases. You, bred as a scholar ( vous, qui tes pain comme un tudiant ), can say it in elegant language, such as you read in your books of the pleadings and wooings of lovers, such as you think best adapted to win the heart of the maiden."

Although Jean was fit to be tied ( convenable tre emballe ), friendship prevailed over love and he went to his duty. But instead of using elegant language, he blurted out his mission. Priscilla was muted with amazement and sorrow ( rendue muette par l'tonnement et las tristesse ).

At length she exclaimed, interrupting the ominous silence: "If the great captain of Plymouth is so very eager to wed me, why does he not come himself and take the trouble to woo me?" ( Ou est-il, le vieux Kilometres? Pourquoi ne vient-il pas aupres de moi pour tenter sa chance ?)

Jean said that Kilometres Deboutish was very busy and didn't have time for those things. He staggered on, telling what a wonderful husband Kilometres would make. Finally Priscilla arched her eyebrows and said in a tremulous voice, "Why don't you speak for yourself, Jean?" ( Chacun a son gout.)

And so, on the fourth Thursday in November, American families sit down at a large table brimming with tasty dishes and, for the only time during the year, eat better than the French do.

No one can deny that le Jour de Merci Donnant is a grande fte and no matter how well fed American families are, they never forget to give thanks to Kilometres Deboutish, who made this great day possible.

Your turkey for the day

You have to admire the directness of age

Two older women were having lunch together while discussing the merits of cosmetic surgery

The first woman said, "I need to be honest with you. I'm getting a boob-job."

The second woman responded, "Oh, that's nothing. I'm thinking of having my ass-hole bleached!"

"Oh! Dear!" replied the first woman

"I just can't picture your husband as a blonde!"

I don't care for Middle Eastern mythology.

But the very nanosecond you mentioned "climate change" was the very nanosecond that "highly suggestive imbecile" was emblazoned on your forehead forever and ever, amen.
