I don’t think — at least I hope — that Jeff Fuller doesn’t knowingly make false statements.
But since his ridiculously laughable claim that abortion is the only issue on which Romney has flipped his positions has been so thoroughly and documentably discredited over the last year, Jeff’s painting me toward the corner of havng to believe that he’s intentionally trying to mislead people.
Let’s see...just off the top of my head, Romney:
* Supported abortion on demand, now says he opposes it.
* Supported Roe v Wade, now says he opposes it.
* Endorsed gays in the military, now says he doesn’t favor it “right now”...”during a time of war”...”at this time.”
* Endorsed Kennedy’s federal “gay rights” legislation, now says it’s not necessary.
* Said Catholic hospitals shouldn’t have to offer the morning-after pill, then later in the same week said they should.
* In 2002, opposed a Marriage Protection Amendment to his state’s constitution. Now postures himself a champion of the same.
* Said defining marriage should be a state issue. Now says the federal Constitution should be amended to define marriage.
* Said his views don’t line up with the NRA. Now brags about being a “life member” of the NRA (since last August).
* Served on the board of directors of one of the nation’s largest white-collar distributors of pornographic videos (the Marriott Corporation). Now says pornography in movies helped motivate the Va Tech shootings.
* Dissed Ronald Reagan. Now claims to be Ronald Reagan.
I’m getting tired...
McCain’s amendment 1190 seems to be misleading. It says “Not later than the date on which status is adjusted under this section, the alien establishes the payment of any applicable Federal tax liability by establishing that....”
To me, this looks like more lipstick on a pig. They have to make an “agreement for payment” to pay back taxes only if they want to apply for a green card (”status is adjusted”). If they just want to stay and work here, payment not required. Watch for their talking points to include the claim that illegals have to pay back taxes.
SA 1190. Mr. MCCAIN (for himself, Mr. GRAHAM, Mr. BURR, and Mr. SPECTER) submitted an amendment intended to be proposed to amendment SA 1150 proposed by Mr. REID (for Mr. KENNEDY (for himself and Mr. SPECTER)) to the bill S. 1348, to provide for comprehensive immigration reform and for other purposes; as follows:
On page 292 redesignate paragraphs (3) as (4) and (4) as (5).
On page 292, between lines 33 and 34, insert the following:
``(3) PAYMENT OF INCOME TAXES.—
``(A) IN GENERAL.—Not later than the date on which status is adjusted under this section, the alien establishes the payment of any applicable Federal tax liability by establishing that—
``(i) no such tax liability exists;
``(ii) all outstanding liabilities have been paid; or
``(iii) the alien has entered into an agreement for payment of all outstanding liabilities with the Internal Revenue Service.
``(B) APPLICABLE FEDERAL TAX LIABILITY.—For purposes of clause (i), the term `applicable Federal tax liability’ means liability for Federal taxes, including penalties and interest, owed for any year during the period of employment required by subparagraph (D)(i) for which the statutory period for assessment of any deficiency for such taxes has not expired.
``(C) IRS COOPERATION.—The Secretary of the Treasury shall establish rules and procedures under which the Commissioner of Internal Revenue shall provide documentation to an alien upon request to establish the payment of all taxes required by this subparagraph.
``(D) IN GENERAL.—The alien may satisfy such requirement by establishing that—
``(i) no such tax liability exists;
``(ii) all outstanding liabilities have been met; or
``(iii) the alien has entered into an agreement for payment of all outstanding liabilities with the Internal Revenue Service and with the department of revenue of each State to which taxes are owed.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I recall you saying that you would not vote for the Republican ticket if Mitt was in the V.P. slot.
Now, the V.P. has virtually no impact on policy. Therefore, I assume you dislike the man beyond policy or political reasons. Is this true? And what are those reasons?
By the way. Don’t think it goes unnoted that your friends at “MyMittMan” and on this thread are attempting to smear Romney’s opponents with the charge of religious bigotry.
Is that the best you can do?
