TaxBlog: Holocaust vs. Genocide
http://taxcollectornetwork.blogspot.com/2009/04/holocaust-vs-genocide.html
Friday, April 24, 2009. Holocaust vs. Genocide. We tax all the others and pass the revenue on to you. Yesterday, April 23, was the day set aside to remember and honor Holocaust victims, International Holocaust Day. It is right to remember the millions of innocents who were slaughtered by a criminal regime led by psychopathic monsters from hell. Our prez conscientiously reminded us "Never again". He sat on Capital Hill and listened as speaker after speaker warned. Do I hear you say? Yeah, can't be expecte...

Alibi for Ignorance: A Million Muslims vs. Two Million Bikers
http://alibiforignorance.blogspot.com/2013/09/a-million-muslims-vs-two-million-bikers.html
All I know is just what I read in the papers, and that's an alibi for my ignorance. - Will Rogers. Thursday, September 12, 2013. A Million Muslims vs. Two Million Bikers. Sounds like a post-apocalyptic straight-to-DVD movie, doesn't it? The Muslims against The Bikers? The MMM organizers got a DC march permit for 9-11-2013. The TMB folks were denied one on very questionable grounds. Those issues were finally resolved. Give the Muslims a point for better lobbyists. How else did they compare? So fine, 25 pe...

All I know is just what I read in the papers, and that's an alibi for my ignorance. - Will Rogers. Sunday, August 25, 2013.

Things never get back to the way they were.". Dwight D. Eisenhower.

TaxBlog: Whither Pennsylvania
http://taxcollectornetwork.blogspot.com/2010/04/whither-pennsylvania.html
Sunday, April 4, 2010. We tax all the others and pass the revenue on to you. Repubs in Pennsylvania say their state could face a $1 bil deficit this year. The Dem gov, Ed Rendell, says its too early to say. nine months into their fiscal year. It's only $700 mil to date. ( Thanks, Business Week. The answer is, we can't. No one really knows although some must profess to for the sake of politics. ArnieS promised several bil of spending reductions in Medi-Cal and prison spending but it didn't happen. The...

TaxBlog: Memorial Day - 2010
http://taxcollectornetwork.blogspot.com/2010/05/memorial-day-2010.html
Friday, May 28, 2010. Memorial Day - 2010. We tax all the others and pass the revenue on to you. I always think of Larry Swarbrick. My friend the gentle giant, on Memorial Day. He was killed in Vietnam, in a particularly mean way, forty years ago this coming August, ambushed in some God-forsaken place called Thua Thien Province. If you were there, you know. I didn't serve in Vietnam. I don't want to make a Blumenthal mistake here." - Jokingly, at Walter Reed Army Hospital this past May 25. He...Went to g...

TaxBlog: Richard "Hulk" Blumenthal vs. Jeremy "The Fighting Sailor" Boorda
http://taxcollectornetwork.blogspot.com/2010/05/richard-hulk-blumenthal-vs-jeremy.html
Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Richard "Hulk" Blumenthal vs. Jeremy "The Fighting Sailor" Boorda. We tax all the others and pass the revenue on to you. You've likely heard Richard Blumenthal say that he served in Vietnam. No? You can watch him HERE. It's as unequivocal as a pol's words get. No, he did NOT serve in Vietnam. He was a Marine reservist who wasn't called to active duty for other than training. Yep, same answer. We are all weak and we all fail. Should DickyB take the same way out? Trust me, serving in...

Alibi for Ignorance: December 2012
http://alibiforignorance.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
All I know is just what I read in the papers, and that's an alibi for my ignorance. - Will Rogers. Monday, December 31, 2012. New Year's Eve 2012. More than a year, this time, since I've posted on my blog. I need to say something about the year just passing. It's been a tough one. I loved him and I miss him daily. Our eldest and his wife moved, too. Here, to our home, as part of a career move. They'll be here as long as they want. It's good to have them around, them and their old beagle. Our elder girl m...

Alibi for Ignorance: The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner
http://alibiforignorance.blogspot.com/2014/05/the-death-of-ball-turret-gunner.html
All I know is just what I read in the papers, and that's an alibi for my ignorance. - Will Rogers. Tuesday, May 27, 2014. The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner. I'd like to know what you think it means or if you think it has any meaning at all. I think its point was to tell Americans that our military was not dying dignified, quick, clean, comic-book shot-through-the-brisket deaths. That's a lie told so that we can sleep. The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner. From my mother's sleep I fell into the State,.

TaxBlog: December 2009
http://taxcollectornetwork.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 31, 2009. A Nation of Cowards. We tax all the others and pass the revenue on to you. That's what Attorney General Eric Holder called America earlier this year, "A nation of cowards." Do you agree? Is there an American political topic that is more talked about, more beaten to death, than race relations? You mean clients like Ms. Brawley but without national notoriety? I think it's fair to say that if I'd been advising my attorney general, we would have used different words.". Judicial s...
