2. shrub reported $84 profit from a tiny part ownership of a timber company
you put a small investment in, not caring about the small profit or loss, but it lets you qualify as a small business and get many tax advantages from that status.

6. that was bush's feeble attempt
Edited on Fri Oct-08-04 11:33 PM by lwfern
to distract us from the issues by making us focus on what an imbecile he is.

We did have threads on it though.

7. Kerry said a TRUTH about bush, and bush LIED
The usual.

Kerry pointed out bush's 2001 tax return showed small biz income of $84 from a timber company bush co-owns.

bush made a huge song & dance pretending to be totally at a loss, saying he didn't own any timber company and WTF was Kerry talking about. Then he made a smart-arse remark to Gibson; "Wanna buy some wood?"

KERRY was RIGHT.

bush was again LYING.

11. i'm actually willing to believe shrub just didn't know
his accountant got him into a tax shelter, and shrub's too stupid to understand. shrub probably asked, "does that mean i'll pay less taxes" and the accountant said "yes" and shrub said "ok, good enough for me!"

12. I have a question...
Kerry said he saw it on his tax report? Is this going to become an issue; will repugs now scour Kerry's taxes or am I making too much of this?
Thanks
