Name That Party: New York Times Edition

By Mike Bates | March 17, 2011 | 18:43

The New York Times's Web site on Tuesday reported, "Former City Council Leader Avoids Prison for Tax Evasion."  Andrew J. Stein didn't pay taxes on $1 million in income in 2008.  His punishment: Three years' probation and 500 hours of community service.

Possibly Stein's cause was helped by Geraldo Rivera asking the judge for leniency.  Or maybe the judge was impressed by Stein's cooperation;  the story notes that he "also agreed to pay taxes for the years 2003 to 2008."  Whatta guy!

The New York Times did omit at least one salient fact:  Stein is a Democrat.

Oops.  Maybe next time.

"also agreed to pay taxes for the years 2003 to 2008."

What a true American!  Making up for his mistake by lowering himself to the tedious duties of us meager, insignificant citizens!!! 

Thumbs up Andy!

Rivera Should Go

Submitted by Utherpend on Fri, 03/18/2011 - 12:51pm.

Why does Fox keep Rivera on staff? He is a blatent liberal and in private detests everything about FOX except for the money he is paid. Every chance he gets he blasts the Republicans for being corrupt but when it is a friend he is all about being leniant on them and not making it too harsh.
"For a people who are free, and who mean to remain so, a well-organized and armed militia is their best security."
