[eureka!]

A further preview of things to come. Look for this in the next round of Grayout ads. *sigh*

[The Vast Right Wing]

Ah yes, the clinton hold-overs strike again.

[goody2shooz]

This sucks. Political blackballing means too many Clintonistas in the IRS. It ought to be abolished, period.

[andy_card]

How many hints do you guys nee?. We'll all suffer for not nominating Riordan. You should have seen this coming a mile away. I don't like RINOs, but any Republican would be a better Gov. than Gray-out. We've got to use some strategery, people.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Not such good news.

They were probably looking for Bushes name and had to settle for lesser fry!

GraYout has his own millstones around his neck.

We must educate and inform the voting populace. Too much is at stake and We and the voting public can see what are foes are capable of after 8 years of ClinTon.


DUMP DAVI$ & the Den of Socialists

GO SIMON

The Justice Department, acting for the IRS, sued KPMG and BDO Seidman LLP on Tuesday for information about the tax shelters they have promoted. The firms said the documents at issue are protected by client confidentiality privileges.

Gary Winnick .. Gary Winnick .. He doesn;t know GraYout by chance .. or Gephardt .. Nyahhh This story doesn't have l;egs?

Riordan would be down about 20 points in the polls right now. How many times to we have to nominate liberal Republicans and lose again, and again and again?

Most importantly why would you want someone MORE liberal than Davis to be governor?

[dalereed]

"because it focuses new attention on Simon's refusal to release his federal and state income tax returns"

Simon couldn't relese his tax returns for last year if he wanted to, they haven't been filed yet. Has everyone fogotten that he filed for an automatic extention!

[eureka!]

Re#7 Yes, we are in for a ride. I do like your attitude and will endeavor to share it. GoSimonGo...

[andy_card]

Riordan would be down about 20 points in the polls right now.

I seriously doubt it. But I assure you that Simon's securities problems go far deeper than this. At least Riordan had a chance of being elected.

How many times to we have to nominate liberal Republicans and lose again, and again and again?

In principle, you're right. I supported Schundler over Franks, for example. But Simon, for purely personal reasons, is singurely unelectable.

Most importantly why would you want someone MORE liberal than Davis to be governor?

I wouldn't.

[dalereed]

If you are the Card that works for Bush, STAY THE HELL OUT OF CALIFORNIA POLITICS!!!!!!!

You and Rove are the scum of the earth.

Buh Bye.

[demlosers]

I remember a thread where The head of the (Clinton appointment)IRS Rossotti or some IRS exec saying, yes we do have politically motivated audits. You'd think saying something like that would bring outrage.

[lelio]

Hopefully people are starting to wake up that one of the main reasons the IRS is here is to make their system so complicated that you'll violate one of their rules (either by accident or by trying to save some money) and they'll hold that over your head so you'll stay in line.

Ah yes, the clinton hold-overs strike again.

Bush has been running the country for going on half his term. At this point he has to take responsibility for the acts of his administration and/or admit he's incompetent.
