The Senate is conducting hearings to find out why big biz doesn't pay very much in taxes. This amounts to a dog and pony show because the reason Apple and other big companies don't even pay the same rate as a part time worker at Walmart is because they paid congress to write a tax code filled with massive loopholes.

Wow, talk about raising the bar. Flickr now offering 1 terabyte of free photo storage, that's 66 times more than Google offers for free. To get the same amount of photo space from Google it costs $600/year.

This solar hot water heater is going for between $100 and $200 depending on the quantity you buy. That is amazing. A decade ago a similar system would cost upwards of  3 or 4 times that amount. I am not selling these, just blown away by how cheap they have gotten.

This movie is a perfect example of the hidden corporate welfare the US government lavishes on American big business. Big business and the GOP like to pretend they don't need any government.  You can not have it both ways, protect your own ships.

They should be targeted, along with every other front group. The very notion that groups like Freedomworks or ALEC are anything but front groups is ridiculous. All these groups and any church that violates the rules by endorsing candidates should have the their nonprofit status immediately revoked. The real scandal isn't that they are doing, it is they let them get away with these illegal money laundering schemes for so long.

Bachmann calls 9/11 punishment from God

"Our nation has seen judgment not once but twice on September 11. That's why we're going to have '9/11 Pray' on that day."

Part of the problem with this is Bachmann using her platform to promote an event organized by Joseph Farah, a right-wing activist best known for publishing the loony World Net Daily conspiracy website. But the larger issue here is Bachmann's unexpected take on U.S. national security threats -- as she sees it, both the 9/11 attacks and the Benghazi attacks are related to divine "judgment."

This is not, as a rule, what politicians usually say about terrorist strikes. Indeed, from Bachmann's perspective, Americans are at least partly to blame for the attacks themselves -- we displeased God, the argument goes, and as a consequence, we felt the pain of God's... more »

Funny how when it's somebody stealing from the banks, the FBI is all over it, but when it's the Banks stealing billions it's "golly gee Mr. Banker said he didn't break any laws".

If Blankenship is sent to prison it mark a dramatic u-turn in American justice. For far too long there has been a growing trend, one that has been put on steroids under Obama, where corp crime kingpins have been above the law.

Put this is in the #WTF  category. This elephant trampled a woman and her child, then buried the evidence. Elephants don't normally do this. Elephants can't build an iPod, but it does show they are not mindless beasts driven strictly by animal instinct.
