UBS: American Investors' Identities To Be Revealed
The curtain is being peeled back on the infamous secrecy of Swiss banks.
The largest bank in Switzerland, UBS, agreed Wednesday to reveal the names of wealthy Americans whom the authorities suspect of using offshore accounts to evade taxes.
The change in policy is the result of UBS' admitted role in conspiring to defraud the Internal Revenue Service. As part of the agreement, the bank will pay $780 million in damages, and also close all offshore accounts of its American clients.
It is not clear how many names will be divulged, but the Feds have been looking into roughly 19,000 accounts, according to the New York Times.
The deal could mark the end of Swiss banking as we know it, as many offshore clients may no longer trust the anonymity of the country's banking system.
Prosecutors suspect that UBS helped its American clients hide $20 billion from the government, or about $300 million a year in taxes, from late 2002 to 2007. UBS has admitted that some of its employees "participated in a scheme to defraud the United States"

I may be an idjit myself and I am certainly the most cynical of the cynical. While I'm about it, I think Obama's mom was a bit of an idjit for making the decisions she made in life but I guess that was her business.
As for GWB, he certainly does deserve some discussion. Like why did he not straight away pardon those 2 border patrol agents who were the target of the worst miscarriage of justice I have personally ever seen? Could there be something synister there? I think so.
I am most certainly NOT a liberal and by the heart of conservatives, I am NOT a conservative either. I do agree with them (if they really believe it) that abortion and gay marriage are wrong. HOWEVER, my opinion being stated, I believe those are moral issues and as such belong to God and not the government. I also do not believe God requires my assistance in passing judgement on them.
Soooo....with all the problems we were facing, t here are many more important issues than Obama's birth certificate. I drug my feet in voting for Obama but I do have a glimmer of hope that he is working to at least get some plan in place for the day he is inaugerated. Everyone deserves a chance. The American people have spoken so it's time to put this b/c nonissue to rest and get to the business of importance...like millions of people projected to be unemployed and the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, which if something isn't done and soon we are headed for the worst times most of you have ever seen and you'll have enough to worry about just wondering how you're going to put food on the table.
don't stock investors have a lot to loose if dems get in the white house again?

did you even SEE the Daily Show?

gt accuses us of drinking daily
just wanted to see how she handled somebody accusing her of it....evidently she can dish it, but she can't take it.
O'Reilly was on the Daily Show
the other night. Did you see it? It was pretty funny. 
Do you really rely on information from the Daily Kos?

wow did anybody catch the daily show
depended on it.

Congratulations to all of you who have hoped Obama would win. I am very happy to have a black man in office, because of all that represents to so many people. I think that part is a huge historical step in the right direction. I am also disappointed because of the areas where I disagree with Obama. But we can't have it all, and truly neither candidate offered everything I would hope for.
With that said, McCain basically asked us all to unify in his speech last night. And I believe he did so because he knows that if we are to survive as a country, that is what we must do. Whether you believe he wrote the speech or not, he spoke the words in front of everyone....basically the world was watching...and I don't believe he would have said things he did not mean.
On a sad note, a dear friend of mine, who is black, stopped at a gas station early this morning and overhead a white man talking saying, "that n***** is going to run this country into the ground." I was heartbroken to hear that. I know racism goes both ways but we have to encourage everyone we know to not have that sort of attitude!!!!
Later this morning, I myself went into a convenient store. There was an Indian man working the register and a black man buying a lottery ticket, and me, a white woman. I smiled and said good morning. The black man looked at me and said, "I can't let Obama outdo me! I need to win the lottery now!" He was obviously happy that Obama won so I said, "oh, you're looking for a double win!" He said, "yes!" and I wished him good luck but told him my dad would be trying to win too and if he wins I get some money :-) He smiled and the guy at the register smiled...I told them all to have a nice day.
Can't we all just be kind to one another?
look who's talking....our very own daily "sm".....

Sad, just sad.
Huh? It's the Daily Show for crying out
It was funny. Or are they not allowed to make fun of Fox, CNN, and MSNBC?
I also prove posts wrong here daily...
which I am sure you immediately close, pull the comforter over your head,have abig glass of Kool-aid and play your Obama tapes. Just my opinion.
I still support him and read his site daily....

New daily TV show, right in the corner of my TV screen....sm.
Obama Live.
Saw another headline the other day, regarding Co-Presidency. And I always thought we could only have one at a time. Boy, was I wrong.
And exhibiting daily that they would gnaw off their hind foot sm

The point is....Sarah Palin does not do it on a daily basis....
in fact I haven't seen it documented that she did it all, much less all the time; and it is controlled and not done "for fun" as the posteror suggested. As you will note, decisions are made when and where to do it by a board that also has "the public" on it. So it is not all lawmakers or the state that make the decisions. The page I took it from is the wildlife conservation page.
Are you sure that they do that? If they wing them they just leave them?
I am not aware of any daily idiotic Biden statements.
I'd be happy to play that game while you furiously scour the blogs for a snappy comeback in defense of the indefensible. SP is obviously note even vaguely familiar with the US constitution or with the very limited authority the VP office will offer to her. Still, if you insist, feed me some gaffes and give me something to do. It beats the heck out of responding to Obama Moslem terrorist socialist communist unAmerican hate speech.
Daily Kos, HufPo, Democratic Underground, NY Times, MSNBC.....
Bill Maher, the list goes on and on......
You explain Biden's idiotic daily statements first, and why they are acceptable.
oh wait, that's right...he gets a free pass with all that 35 year history, confident, trustworthiness stuff.....
nevermind
If f the Hufpo, MSNBC, Daily Kos bathrobe pundit sheeple
did they manage to pull off the 7.2% margin/192 electoral vote mandate in Nov and what does that that say about all you Bush babblers who couldn't figure out how to outsmart them?
But lately, you;ve contributed daily to the toxic liberal posts on this board.
I watch Daily Show & O'Reilly and split the difference! NM

Why is that your business?
I am not being hateful or anything. I am just wondering why you consider their marriage or lack of your business?
but again - why is it your business?
If you don't like it, then don't participate in it. I don't believe that biblically gay is acceptable, but if they want to get married and live the married lifestyle, then it does not hurt me. I am not living their lifestyle and I am not participating in their lifestyle. That is their personal decision. It does not affect me or my familiy or my lifestyle one bit by what they do in their home.
I believe that we have much more important things to worry about than whether two gay people are "legally" married or not...
NO - IT IS NOT YOUR BUSINESS
I don't believe your story about 4 of your friends. Too much of a coincidence I would say. You might have just well said you had 12 or more friends who all went through the same thing.
Like the poster said above - until you walk in someone else's shoes mind your own business. People are not put on this earth to meddle in other people's lives (people you don't know) and get involved in things you have no idea about and try to push your viewpoints. News flash - your viewpoints are not always right.
Well, if you want to go into business of producing
vaccines I'll be right behind you cheering you on. If it's such an urgent matter then why don't you do it? Like I said, the government will give you a grant for doing it, but it won't even cover the costs of making the vaccines. Yeah, I'm sure you're ready to fill out that grant request first thing Monday morning.
I worded the vaccine statement wrong. I heard yesterday on the radio, when all the ADD and autism with flu shots was being discussed, the majority of vaccines are now being made overseas, because companies have to take a hit just to make them. THEY SAID that no smallpox vaccines were being made in the U.S. The government does not make it feasible NOR do they protect these companies from litigation.
Do you think the government needs to strong arm drug companies into making vaccines for little or no profit? If you do then you've shifted into a whole other political view.
Business politics
You nailed it when you said business. However, if a conservative had said the same thing you and Lurker just stated you would have disputed that. Liberals swear up and down Murdoch is a conservative Republican, but the truth is Murdoch is all about Murdoch and what sells. His politics is business.
I never dispute big business...sm
I know they rarely have the little guy in mind or stand on principals. Murdoch is down with the republican party right now, but he's thinking about '08 as it appears the tide is changing (bush ratings). He has told the Washington Post that he is not sure if he will back Hillary or McCain in '08. He's waiting to see how the tide rolls to see which propaganda his news engine will push.
That's her business and choice if she does, not yours.
Just because YOU wouldn't be able to handle children plus a job doesn't mean another woman wouldn't. Perhaps your energy or patience level isn't up to it, but I know plenty of women that have high-profile careers and young children and handle both beautifully. It's all about balance. Again, just because you might not be able to find that balance doesn't mean others can't.
What has Obama run by himself. What business?
