As soon as we get a mailing address from Specbid, all monies should go to Specbid.  When I get the address I'll include you in the private message cc: sending it around to everyone.

THX!

Virgina. Massachussetts. New Jersey. Obamacare DOA. Cap & Tax DOA. McCain/Feinold DOA. DingleBarry sinking in the polls. We have them run the run. Come November we'll have them on their knees. That's when we go for the jugular and finish them off.

Instead of President, VP, COO, CIO, etc...

Can we have Czars? Vice Czars. Chief Operating Czars? etc?  I've always wanted to be a Czar. Think it could be fun.  :-)

This could be fun. I can spare at least $50 for a buy-in.

I just want to be Vice. Also, I want that embossed letter head on my stationary. We may end up selling it to Rush, or have him auction it off for some charity...(after we deduct expenses)

Or we may just keep it to churn out vile and incendiary right wing propaganda on youtube. It's just a win win win all the way around.

Ah. And I can definitely vouch for Spirit of Ronald Reagan. My man in the tar heel state.

So for tax purposes, can we consider this a charitable donation?  I mean we are giving our hard earned money to buy some desolated liberal train wreck.

If not, do we at least get a quarterly stock holders update?

Sweet. I'll kick in for the leather bound portfolios these will come in since so many people are kicking in for the initial expense of buying this P.O.S. operation.

Let's add some conservative class to the portfolios.  Wrap them in snow leopard skin and have it play the dean scream when you open it.

O.K. signing off for the night. I seem to be incurring the wrath of God with the weather for some reason. I'll check back in in the A.M.

This has my vote. Anything to make DUmbass heads assplode. We could have the beginnings of a great startup here.  :-)

Imagine us making Queef Oberdork's Worst Person (People?) in the World one day. I would wear that like a badge of honor.

MN SOS site:

My Mom lives in Champlin... She better not...

Thanks for grabbing that info.  Did the records say whether or not the entities were still in good standing, or if they'd been dissolved?  It doesn't suprise me that they would have set it all up using Minnesota entities.  Once we get our feet wet in Delaware, it would be useful to try and do a 50-state check to see how many states they left unguarded - it might be possible to hit the strategic states and put together a family of wholly-owned subs and single-member LLCs that effectively gives us the rights to use the corporate names in most of the places where libs live.

Balderdash. Not only will I cover that. I'll throw Mr. Bid some dough for doing the leg work. I'd toss some dough to Mr. Ocean, but I'm sure the massive lawsuits we will incur will more than fill his coffers...just toss the rest in the money bin or swimming pool. I'm sure all of us will be tarred with highly profitable scorn and infamy as a result of this.

I've checked the Texas SOS site. They charge a fee to do a search. It's only $1 each, so I can cover that if we want to look here. The filing fees are much steeper here, though. Corps and LLCs are $300 each to file for the Certificate of Formation. Not sure if it would be worth it unless we were actually going to be trying to make a profit.

Thanks Mike220.  As much as I love Texas, though, I would agree with you that it's not really worth doing the full filing right now.  I think if we aim for strategic coverage in the major liberal markets (we could probably get Austin thrown in for free on that account), we can get strategic coverage without having to hit every state.

If we really want to get serious about this we could pose as libs trying to revamp and sell some IPOs for it.  Then see if like Limbaugh & Beck will give us a couple plugs on their shows.  If libs are going to claim us conservatives like to exploit people who are we to call them liars.  We could use the profits to buy some time on Rush's show to publicly thank the investors for giving us their money.  With whatever is left over we could use to buy chainsaws and cut down trees that spotted owls are using for nesting.

Also consider this:

Web-casting.

You have technologies from places like winamp.com that allow broacasting content over the web.

Draw up a programming format (a list of the content you're looking for an NOT looking for) then blast the Tea Party organization to A) alert their members to listen an B) SUBMIT content.

As anathema as it may sound we would need to develop editorial standards and oversight so some Ronulan from stormfront doesn't weasel in but if we give the Tea Party a broadcasting platform built on the moldering bones of a failed liberal enterprise the irony alone would gain national attention.

IF--and this is a mighty big if--it ever got big enough advertisers asked for airtime and it ever became profitable I would strongly suggest being a non-profit. The Tea Party already has a problem with being formed as a for-profit enterprise by someone who didn't bother to consult the rest of the groups around the nation. We would be scrutinized by ever liberal and media outfit (is that too redundant?) just aching for anything no matter how innocuous to nail us on.

Either or another.

It also has the virtue of being podcastable.

Anyone considered flipping it?

Sell it to Beck, Limbaugh or Hannity... Heads would explode the moment you heard "...from the golden Air America microphone...".  :rotf:
