The perfect democrat. Starting out with some $300,000 in tax debt but she's going to save the rest of us.

Laura Ingalls will save us all.



Michigan legislative action thread

[hosepipe]

Little Laura a democrat........ /{slash wrists}

[dfwgator]

She served as president of the Screen Actors Guild

I thought it was the Film Actors Guild.

I find this rather tragic as we’re showing our kids the “Little House” series as an example of solid classic conservative values.

[GeronL]

She can’t pay her own taxes, no wonder she’s a Democrat

[Cowboy Bob]

A Hollywood liberal is going to teach the Michigan hicks a thing or two about politics.

[rfreedom4u]

So why haven’t they filed a lien on Al Sharptongue yet?

[Sooth2222]

Bishop won with 54.6% last time, versus 42.1% for the ‘rat.

[Tzimisce]

For 80k (the price of 8000 baby livers) you can have dinner with her and her friends at Planned Parenthood. :)

"Gilbert, a Democrat"

No! Not Half-Pint, nooooo!

[48th SPS Crusader]

“Here in Michigan, I know people are doing their best to make a good life for themselves and their families. When it comes down to it, I think that’s what we all really want,”

Then why are you a Democrat?

[KevinB]

Politics is the last hope for those who have no reasonable means of making a living.

Re: “It's amazing that a woman who owes hundreds of thousands of dollars, who moved here from Hollywood and has a dog stylist but won't pay her taxes, is considering running for Congress to get a government pay check,” Sandler said.

Actually its a pretty good plan. All she needs to do is get elected once. Even if she loses next time around she gets a nifty retirement courtesy of the taxpayers. Since her acting career has fizzled, this will get her back into the limelight again. I think you have to be either a narcissist and/or a conman to run as a Democrat these days. Run around and lie about how you care for the little people. If she loses in her bid for election, her liberal friends in the film industry may reward her efforts at battling the evil Republicans and give her some new roles. So win-win for her.

“I’m running for Congress to make life a little easier for all the families who feel they have fallen through the cracks in today’s economy...

...she failed to pay more than $360,000 in federal income taxes.

Aww. Half Pint is running for Congress as a RAT.

[Lizavetta]

The perfect democrat. Starting out with some $300,000 in tax debt but she's going to save the rest of us.

According to the Internet, she's only worth $500,000.

Way more than what I have, but I would have thought the Little House syndication would have made her a wealthy woman.

So now she's going to latch on to the public teat. Lovely.

[SunkenCiv]

She served as president of the Screen Actors Guild -- a labor union representing film and television performers -- from 2001 to 2005 and hit the campaign trail in 2014 as a supporter of Michigan gubernatorial candidate Mark Schauer. Gilbert has had problems with the Internal Revenue Service, which filed a tax lien against her on February 3 claiming she failed to pay more than $360,000 in federal income taxes. She attributed the unpaid taxes to a "perfect storm" involving the economic recession and a prior divorce, telling The Detroit News she had negotiated a repayment plan with the IRS.

Thanks cripplecreek.

Gilbert, a Democrat who has lived in Livingston County since 2013

Only 2 years in the district? That'll go well there.

One of my good friends lives in that district. He just sent me an email about her anti-gun stance and said that's going to kill her in that district.

Livingston County and that part of Oakland County isn't going to vote for her but the district has Lansing and MSU so it's not exactly a safe district for Bishop.
