Damn the Conservatives for pointing out the lies and hypocracy of the the Left!

The Left is just like the Taliban and AQ, using children as human shields while attacking or retreating.

Democrats are "fair game," but a 12-year-old?

So this is why the lefties try to hide behind children.

What a despicable lot.

Thanks, RD. The numbers this family provides do not add up.

“When are the Democrats going to stop hiding behind human shields, and make a forthright, rational argument for what they are proposing?”

Never. They can’t. They know their ideas can’t stand up to intellectual scrutiny, so they have to parade around the victim du jour and hope that people will feel instead of think about the policy/program/whatever.

The good thing for our side is that the playbook is getting old and more and more people can see through it. The media has accused conservatives of being big, bad meanies who want to starve schoolchildren, pollute the water and air, deprive injured children of healthcare, etc. for decades. And yet, average people can see that nobody’s starving nor dying of injuries in the street and we can all breathe the air and drink the water. So, more and more, the big lie becomes transparent.

Hence the false outrage and hysterical caterwauling in articles like these.

attacking a....12 year old

I'm a bit confused. Is it the 12 year old who is filing his father's income tax returns that claim a $45,000 dollar income?

If that's the case, his dad should buy the TurboTax software or take his taxes to HR Block.

I'm amazed that this dad makes his kid do the family taxes! Someone call social service....pronto! Filing taxes is cruel and unusual punishment for an adult, but to make a 12 year old do it would constitute child abuse.

/sarc.

Oh, yes -

The Dems should be able to use phony “victims” as cover to promote their socialist agenda,

and anyone who calls them on their phoniness is “mean”.

What a bunch of 10 yr olds.

And I learned from another FReeper that, in Maryland, you have to have a Personal Injury Protection (PIP) on your policy, which pays (he said) about $2,500 regardless of fault.

I wonder who paid the mother’s medical bills ... or if she was wearing her seat belt, and therefore didn’t have significant injuries.

I was helping my mother in her tax practice when I was 12 ... and look how I turned out.

E.J. Dionne is a political bigot, just like Paul Krugman, who wrote a similar piece for the NE Times. He makes the same two, deliberate mistakes. One, he claims that critics are attacking the boy, whereas they are attacking the parents, their lies, and the Democrats who use them. Two, he ignores the facts that Malkin carefully lays out.

Competent and ethical reporters (bear with me, here) would not write and publish such incompetent articles. Honest newspapers would not print such factual trash. But this is Dionne, writing for the Post. Ne-VER-mind.

A perfect example of the Rats “untouchable” spokesman, per Ann Coulter.

“Has anyone ever posted a link to the accident report?”
I tried to find it yesterday with no luck.
I wanted to see if the officer filing the report found black ice.
Or was she speeding to get the kids to school on time.
Did they skimp on insurance for the car,as they did with health insurance.

Just like my mother :-). Anoreth and Bill say their hearing automatically switches off when I start talking “in Grandmama’s voice.” I guess I was doing it the other day in the line at Wal-mart, because the man behind us said, “Excuse me, are you from Philadelpia?”

OK, the Democrats are "fair game," but a 12-year-old?

The family made itself fair game when they allowed the 'Rats to push their 12-year old son up to a microphone and shill for them. We can't help it they were stupid for doing so.

I’m sure one of Hillary!’s million ideas, that she admits the nation can’t afford, is a program that provides liability insurance to all trees, starting (but not ending) with trees by roadsides. Eventually, all trees will by fully insured, a condition that is sadly lacking under Bush’s cruel, heartless regime.

I’m not obsessed, I just don’t want to see a liberal elected president, I don’t care what party they belong to.

It’s about time we fight back when the Democrats attempt to use human shields.

The gloves are off!

Check post #75, it was a Saturday, most schools are closed.

The paper shredders are probably chewing up accident reports from December 2004, before evil press-non-believers can see the facts for themselves.

“is that a tax deductible expense?”
Well, my head is spinning from my CPA’s info, and I didn’t understand much of it. But it seems to me that it depends on whether the “Scholarship” is merit based, or needs based.
