Democratic Senate candidate Alexi Giannoulias will pay no income taxes this year and stands to receive returns of $30,000 in income withheld from his state treasurer’s salary…

Giannoulias’ income tax returns show he earned $119,000 from his job as state treasurer. He reported $414,757 in capital gains.

But he also reported a loss of $2.7 million from his holdings in his family’s Broadway Bank.

Note that Broadway did not fail in 2009, so whatever losses he took were from before the final collapse, which cost the FDIC $394 million.

No wonder he waited until Friday afternoon of the Fourth of July weekend to release the information.

Good thing that Republicans are Saints according to these idiot posters,,,,,,Republican suck--if it had gone back to the Democrats you all would be crying fraud, acorn , Soros, and all the rest of the crap you keep flinging-- hope this old Republican steals you all blind--it's what you deserve. Republicans are cowards.

WASHINGTON — Joe Biden, the gaffe-prone vice president, strayed from tradition Monday at the swearing-in of Republican Mark Kirk, the new senator from Illinois.

Biden, who is president of the Senate, began by instructing Kirk: "Please place your right hand on the Bible."

Kirk, a Republican, did as instructed, putting his right hand on the Good Book and raising his left.

Oops. Here's guidance from "Traditions of the United States Senate," by Richard Baker, the Senate historian from 1975 to 2009: "Senators-elect affirm their oath to defend the U.S. Constitution by stepping forward, raising their right hand, and repeating the words spoken by the presiding officer. Some carry in their left hand a personal Bible or other sacred text."

Makes A Great LOONY Vice President!A Clown, he is always funny!..However the Jokes on us!
