Kerry was right: Bush is listed as part owner of a lumber company on his

tax return because of an $84 investment. I don't quite get how it works, but it's interesting that it was news to Bush. Kerry could have stuck that knife a little deeper into his prey, seeing as he told the truth. Imagine if he'd said to Bush, "You know damn well you claimed to be part owner of that company. It's on your tax return. Or don't you know what's on your tax return?"

1. bush; LIAR? Or TAX FRAUDSTER?

His 2001 return shows $84 small biz income from part-ownership of a timber business.

4. Where can we find that?

We need to find it and send it to all the reporters on the cable channels and broadcast as well.

2. Yes Kerry should have twisted the dagger in, I think somewhere there

must have been a gentleman's agreement not to draw blood and Kerry sad to say was the only one who honored it.

3. Do you think that will come back to haunt the chimp?

I certainly hope so. I had heard/read it...can't remember where...maybe here...maybe factcheck...maybe daily mislead. Me thinks I read too much and remember too little.

6. I don't know. It would have been devastating if Kerry had hit him on it

at the debate, right after Bush had tried to make a joke out of it. It would have been a defining moment of the debate. Maybe Kerry will hit him on it again at the next debate.

5. where did you get that info?

is there a link or a photocopy or something that we can use as evidence of the chimpsters lying?

[BurtWorm]

7. It was fact checked on ABC. There must be a copy of his return on line

somewhere.

8. Check out

Tax History Project: Presidential Tax Returns

The $84 in question is on line 12 of the 1040 and line 3 of the C-EZ return (2001).
