Dateline Minnesota: Time For Coleman To Demand An Al Franken Tax Recount

Free Republic | February 3, 2009 | aas & Seaplaner

[an amused spectator]

Freeper Seaplaner has come up with a BRILLIANT idea:

Franken...failed to pay at least $70,000 in taxes to 17 states prior to running for office.

I would bet that a careful, thorough, and scrupulous audit would turn up much more tax dodgery on the part of tax-cheat-Franken.

It's a mere suspicion, mind you.

But it's based on a lifetime of marveling about how people like this (selfish, dishonest, mendacious) are habitually so.

I'm suggesting that this is a mere clue of his typical behavior.

Perhaps Senator Coleman should challenge Mister Franken for a "recount" of his taxes for the past, say, seven years. - from a post to another thread, in Seaplaner's own words.

It's time to call The Tax Cheat Party and its Washington acolytes on every sleazy tax-thieving dodge that they get caught in.

We know that Al Franken is a Tax Cheat, so we have to hound him out of Washington with his tail between his legs, just like Little Tommy TaxCheat got chased out today.

Here’s your post, Seaplaner. You the Man! :-)

What makes you think tax evasion is a disqualifier to serve as a Democrat in Washington? What do you want to do, empty the city?

You are right. I think we need to start with the Obama's taxes.

[I see my hands]

Think bigger.

When their name is changed to The Tax Cheat Party, do they still get to keep their jackass mascot? Or is something else more appropriate? A snake perhaps?

Time for FRANKEN to fade into the Sunset....time to contact Coleman, he needs our support.

Oh, they'll still be the same jackasses they always were. ;-)

Okay, little Tommy got hounded out of Washington but what about Geitner? I don’t think the job is done. The line has to be drawn at the start, not the second or third person.

Dohh! What WAS I thinking?!!?

[Sunshine Sister]

Thanks for the laugh!

YESSSSS!!!!

"Al Franken" should NEVER be mentioned without the accompanying adjective "TAX-CHEAT."

What do you want to do, empty the city?

Yep!

[an amused spectator]

We want Geithner up there, leading the IRS in its relentless hunt for hapless serfs and peasants who become tangled in the byzantine byways of the incomprehensible 8-bazillion-page Tax Code, but always, ALWAYS somehow missing the Tax Cheating Lords of the Manor...

It's kind of like the rotting head on the gate of The Tower of London. ;-)

[an amused spectator]

Oh, you mean Tax-Cheat Al Franken, don’t you? ;-)

How does the song go? "Savin' The Best For Last..."

" I think we need to start with the Obama's taxes. "

Whether they paid their taxes or not, I don't know, but the Bidens consistently gave less than 0.2% of their income to charity.

The Obamas did slightly better, running around 1% (until 2006 when the HopeChanger began to campaign for Prez).

Taxes? I don' pay no steenking taxes.

Thank you for the laugh out loud moment! The expression is priceless!
