Say It Ain't So, Joe! Palin v. Biden on Charitable Giving
Right Up Front ^ | October 3, 2008 | Aaron Schwitters

Posted on 10/03/2008 7:57:04 PM PDT by army2008

Media vultures are now poring over Sarah and Todd Palin's tax returns. The Associated Press article insinuates that it's possible the Palins may have underpaid the IRS by $2,000. Yet while they zealously seek to manufacture another fake scandal for the Palins, mainstream media outlets are ignoring, perhaps conveniently, the fact that Joe Biden, wealthy in his own right, has given less than pennies on the dollar to charity over the last decade.

The big mouths talk the talk but it’s people like Gov Palin who walk the walk.

Now Palin, who is worth a fraction of Obama/McCain/Biden, becomes the tax cheat.

I HATE THE MAJOR MEDIA.

Clinton wasn't taken to task for writing off donations of his used underwear to the Salvation Army; Gore, Kerry, Obama and Biden donate squat till they run for President and the MSM says nada.

No lower form of life than a journalist in the lamestream media IMHO. I have more respect for crack wh_res.

OMG they made a mistake on their IRS forms maybe.
Just like 100million people do every year.

I just paid the IRS yesterday $900 in taxes, interest and penalties for a mistake my accountant made on an amended 2006 1040. The damn Tax Code is such a monster accountants can screw it up.

I find this another great non-story by the lamestream media.

Only thing lower than a MSM journalist in my mind is a kiddie porn photographer.

That is on average. There are isolated exceptions...

True. I shouldn't lump all kiddie porn photographers together like that. :)

And yet Charlie Rangel, of tax writing committee House Ways & Means, gets a free pass for not reporting tens of thousands in taxable income by the MSM drive-by’s

Yes - with their own money, these libs toss around nickels like they're manhole covers, yet they spend our money like drunken sailors. (my sincere apologies to drunken sailors )

No lower form of life than a journalist in the lamestream media IMHO.

I completely concur with that statement. However, I work in the media (I am a production worker for The Baltimore Sun) and I fear that my livelihood will evaporate because of the arrogance of the news writers. They still think that they're suffering only because of cable news and the Internet. To the news writers at the liberal papers, bias to them is like asking a fish about the water all around. The fish says "What water?". Because these "journalists" are surrounded by people who think and vote the same way, they say "What bias?" I believe I am paraphrasing Rush Limbaugh when I say that with the media, we, the customer is not always right. We, the customer are wrong and on top of that, we're stupid - we just don't "get it".

Newspapers need to realize that content is king. Many papers have re-designed and changed their look, but it's like putting gold spray paint on a turd - it's shiny and looks nicer but it still stinks because it's a turd!

Thanks. I feel better now.

The media’s candidate in 2004 (Kerry) didn’t win. Let’s hope the silent majority (conservatives) vote in record numbers this November over the naive youth masses and obamabots.
