Because His Taxes Were Too High

October 20, 2014 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Tom Foley is running for Governor of Connecticut.  He’s a Republican millionaire.  So, he doesn’t pay taxes.  Seriously, not at all.

The most recent returns reveal that Foley paid zero percent in federal taxes for the third year in a row.

Screen Shot 2014-10-20 at 12.14.03 PMTom Foley lives in a ten million dollar house, has a 5 million dollar yacht, and owns two airplanes.  He’s paid zero taxes in the past three years.

Get this.  It’s his explanation.

Foley has laughed off the governor’s criticisms, saying, “In America, if you don’t have any income, you don’t pay taxes.”

Dude, if you’re running on your business acumen and you took losses on your businesses, maybe you should run on your good looks instead.

His Democratic opponent, Gov. Dannel Malloy pays taxes.

Malloy, has released partial tax returns for the past four years, which showed he paid effective federal tax rates of 38.19 percent, 20.7 percent, 25.3 percent and 25.2 percent. In those years, the total income figures for Malloy and his wife, Cathy, were $319,912, $212,892, $303,467 and $305,534.

Remember Leona Helmsley’s “only little people pay taxes.”  Well, Honey, she was an amateur.

We Have a Winner!

Worst political ad ever.

Seriously, you won’t know whether to snicker or be mortified.

“I know that black folks have had a hard time with … uh … slavery,” sayeth the man who owes the government a million dollars.

Kamau Bakari is running for congress.  He calls Cliven Bundy “a brave white man.”

 

Thanks to Caroline for the heads up.

 

George Will Can Kiss My Big Blue Butt

George Will is a nincompoop.

On Fox News Sunday

george_will_2-11“There are doctors who are saying that in a sneeze or some cough, some of the airborne particles can be infectious.” Will also said Ebola could survive on a dry surface “for a number of days.”

Show host Chris Wallace cut Will off, asserting that Ebola does not spread like the flu, which does move from person to person when someone with the illness is out in public.

No doctor is saying that.  Ebola doesn’t involve coughing.

Look, you are equally as likely to die on a Texas roller coaster as die from Ebola.  If Ebola is so damn contagious how come only two people – both of whom are doing quite well, thank you very much – got it?

Shove it, George.

The Solomons in a happier time.

Remember the woman who hates, hates, hates Obama  so she ran ran over her husband when she found out that he didn’t vote in the Presidential election of 2012?

Her trial is set to start on January 5th on Phoenix.

Daniel Solomon, who suffered a fractured pelvis, told investigators that his wife believed their family was going to face hardship as a result of Obama’s election.

Holly Solomon told police she was trying to scare her husband by stopping the vehicle close to him but she accidentally stepped on the accelerator and struck him.

Well hell, I guess she was right about her family facing hardship if Obama was elected.

Because He Doesn’t Know Any Pretty People

Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett’s campaign website is all made-up.  You know, kinda like the Republican Party.

All the group shots of Corbett on the website are Photoshopped including this one.

There are no attractive black women who would smile at Tom Corbett so they used a stock photo.

Then other stock photos were discovered on his site.

Truth be known, we’re not all that sure that Tom Corbett is real.  We think maybe they found a fading actor in Hollywood to pose for Corbett’s picture along with all these there people who have never heard of Tom Corbett.

Bless his heart, all his friends are too damn ugly to appear on his website.  Well, at least that’s what he thinks.  Personally, I think his friends should throw darts at his website.

Thanks to Claudia for the heads up.
