oldtime dfl_er (4,966 posts) Profile Journal Send DU Mail Ignore I got slimed by rush today on his show...need helpLast edited Tue Feb 14, 2012, 01:30 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)does anyone know where I can find a brief snippet from....rush limbaugh? today I (as "scarebaby", which is my business's name) replied to President Obama's request that people tweet what 40 dollars means to them. I sent a simple tweet that said "40 dollars means I can pay my internet bill and keep my tiny small business running." my tweet was retweeted by the White House. Then, apparently, rush accused me of being a fake twitter account set up by the white house. I didnt' hear it because, well, I've never listened to his show. but if I could just have that one snippet...I could do a lot with it!
Did @whitehouse retweet a fake tweet? @scarebaby claims payroll tax cut pays internet bill for small business. But only employees get cut.
@scarebaby ck. your facts.This tax extension does not apply to you as an employer.Only to your employees.Takes from Social Security Trust.RT
@scarebaby Hey, dumbass: You're not eligible for the piddling $40.
@scarebaby Hey dufus. You're self employed. You don't get a payroll tax cut. If you are even a real person, and not an #Obama stooge.
"The nation that couldn’t be conquered by foreign enemies has been conquered by its elected officials" odawg Free Republic in reference to the GOP Elites who are no difference than the Democrats
@scarebaby Like a typical Marxist you want to tell me who to listen to. Why don't you stop listening to the Kenyan.
@scarebaby how do you get a payroll tax cut extension when the self employed don't get the cut? interesting..
@scarebaby If u agree 2 b poor enuf, govt will buy u cell phone & sell u internet 4 just $10/mo. More likely ur $40 is buying them 4 some1.
@scarebaby you know what will keep your small business running? Less taxes and regulations from a bloated Federal bureaucracy
@scarebaby Better consider new business!
@scarebaby: $40 a month means I can pay my internet bill and keep my tiny small business alive. #40dollars†and rob your retirement.
ETA - And one to floppy-ears for the find, too!
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
Just mentioned you again if you're lurking, slut.

Does the payroll tax holiday not extend to self-employment taxes?View profileLast edited Tue Feb 14, 2012, 02:47 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)Actually, Limbaugh's an idiot out the box anyway. I own *two* small businesses and pay no self-employment tax. I did some consulting work once and paid self-employment then. But have never had to pay it because of the businesses I own.That aside, if it so happens your work requires you to pay self-employment taxes, is there no partial payroll tax holiday on that tax? The one year I had to pay it, I noted that self-employment taxes were equal to the employer and employee share of the payroll tax combined. Did they forget that when crafting the payroll tax holiday?
And yes, Rush mentioned Democratic Underground. I wonder how many people are over there now.
I heard the original at about 12:20 this afternoon, out in the car! Who knew that was a DUmbass? Thanks for twitter quotes, Bally! This is awesome.... Oh, what did Rush say about DU?
Rush just said to @scarebaby that @scarebaby is looking for the transcripts!
chisao10124. lolRush was saying that the payroll tax cut does not apply to those who own their own business. If you are self employed, you don't get your $40 a month. Since I found you on this site, and I spent a little time reading some of the posts here, I can tell that you are a cheerleader for Obama. You realize that you fall right into the term 'useful idiot', right? You realize Obama has lied to you from day 1, right?Bush may have lied, but I don't know of a president in history that has lied as much as Obama.
oldtime dfl_er19. one pointYou'll notice that the initial "tweet" did NOT say "what would a $40 payroll tax cut mean to you". When OTHER people get $40 extra dollars in their pockets, I benefit because they can purchase from me.Now that I've read what he said, I'm even more offended.
