		<description>As a CPA in Dallas, I do have an issue with the non compliance in New York, especially dealing with compensation issues.   On the other hand, I am inclined to give the benefit of doubt to Franken with regard to the California issue.  It is common, though not always correct to cease filing state income tax returns when the corporation ceases doing business in that state.  Every state has different procedures for withdrawal from the state, some procedures as simle as checking a box on the final state return.  It would appear that frankens office simply failed to file the final return which would likely have shown zero activity.  In regard to the letter, Most likely, the letter was reprinted vs. using a photocopy of the original letter.  While non well documented, the california issue appears to be a non issue.</description>

		<description>Geez, what happened to the good, intelligent libs that used to post here?   It&#039;s been like a year since we&#039;ve had a good, solid, fact based debate.    I remember Bluegal and others who would actually make me stop and think or at least double check my facts.    El P hits a few good points now and again but Twoput posts like a three year old who is over due for his Ritalin; posts that have nothing to do with the topic and often incomprehensible.

	Example: This thread is about stories that show how Al COULD be a tax dodger or inept business man.   TPTomâ€™s argument is that Michael is a tool of the GOP. 

True or not, that makes Alâ€™s possible corruption or incompetence irrelevant how?   

Or the Smokescreen this, Smokescreen that makes Al a great Senatorial candidate how exactly?     

Seriously Twoput, when I first started reading your posts I thought you were really a right wing blogger satirizing the left!    I thought you were hysterically funny until I realized you were real.</description>

		<description>Swiftee, with syntax like yours you could travel the Spanish-speaking world and be understood.

Perhaps the next letter that Ron Carey sends out to New York [perhaps about the children and Air America Radio] could be sent by you, and could be in the Spanish language.</description>

		<description>Another curious aspect of the CA letter is the absence of any reference to an enclosed check in payment of the taxes assessed. If I were drafting the letter, I would certainly reference the fact that I was including a check (which appears to be required under the CA instructions for filers of form 100), as well as a reference to the amount of the check.</description>

I&#039;m tellin&#039; ya, I went to ol&#039; Smokescreen&#039;s campaign  kick-off, and he sounded - once again! - like a Democrat!!!

He sounded so dam good, I almost whipped out the check book right then and there, to give him some dough!!!!

Fortunately, it was my business checkbook, and Lord knows ol&#039; Smokescreen would never take any corporate dough.....</description>

		<description>This is fun.  Comrade Puddles is starting to sweat on this one.  From his lack of comments I can only assume that the DFL hasn&#039;t given him his talking points yet - they are probably rattled by yet another FAILURE by their boy Angry Al.  Don&#039;t worry Comrade, they will be getting those talking points(lies)to you any minute now and you will be off and running.</description>

I do use Google Ads on my blog. I don&#039;t keep a list of the campaigns that advertise on Minnesota Democrats Exposed.  Candidates of all political parties advertise on Minnesota Democrats Exposed.</description>

		<description>Folks: The Republican Party of Minnesota&#039;s press release raises questions about the letter:

&quot;Furthermore, on Wednesday, April 16th, 2008, Mr. Frankenâ€™s campaign produced a letter from a tax accountant named Monifa Benison that they claim shows the corporation should have been dissolved in 2003. The letter itself is curious in that it lacks a signature, any evidence of corporate letterhead and doesnâ€™t copy any of Alan Franken Inc.â€™s corporate officers, including Mr. Franken himself.</description>

		<description>Frank Alan, you HAVE GOT to be kidding me. Shittheads like you were saying the same thing about the phony Dan Rather documents... Who knows how this will turn up, but Michael is ABSOLUTELY correct to question the veracity of these documents. 

This issue smells to high heaven. Idiots like you are the only ones buying the manure Franken is selling. 

By the way, as these stories trickle out, why do you think it is that Al Franken&#039;s story changes by the hour? 

Man you are stupid.</description>

		<description>Frank:  As I wrote above, I have no evidence to believe the letter provided to the media by Team Franken from their account wasnâ€™t actually sent to the state of California. 

The Republican Party of Minnesota just announced that they filed a data practices request and the letter may likely show up in their request.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m publicly challenging Michael to call this anything but a case of incorrect paperwork being filed by the business professionals retained by Franken.  

Remembering, of course, that since Blois outed you, defamation cases will be much easier to substantiate.  

Or, are you finally willing to admit that you have blown all the smoke you can, and people are starting to notice the distinct lack of fire.</description>

		<description>Skipper, I agree. Really I can&#039;t get upset with someone who is having problems dealing and keeping up with Big Gov&#039;t rules. But if you represent the anti-business segment of society, I do have to laugh when you can&#039;t keep up (see George McGovern as a text book case when he tried to run a bed and breakfast in his retirement). 

This is one of the reasons I disliked Paul Wellstone. He never went out there and created something out of nothing. No inventions, no new service, no small business. He never had to deal with the crap that those who go out there and do things have to.</description>

		<description>Personally, I consider this trivial, as would anyone who has run a business. However, this is another socialist who rants constantly about &quot;business&quot; running afoul of their precious every law. Let he who sins not cast the first stone.</description>

		<description>&quot;where is the controversy here?&quot;   Your kidding, right?   The original mistake MAY have been an honest one, all be it a stone stupid mistake by someone, but it sure is starting to look like a clownish cover up is brewing.    As Swiftee says, you can smell it.

		<description>So, Michael.  If you truly are not doubting the authenticity of the letter, where is the controversy here?  It seems to me, this is a misunderstanding of what it takes to dissolve a corporation in California, an offense that even the guy you spoke to out there described as commonplace.  

If you honestly are not doubting the letter, than you are simply accusing his accountant of using an incorrect form to dissolve the company several years ago.</description>

		<description>Question: What accountant believes that he can send in a legal document to a state licensing agency and not sign it?

Answer: The same one that sends documents a state licensing agency for three years after supposidly dissolving the clients company.

		<description>There is no doubt in my mind the CA letter is an attempt at fraud.  No professional accountant would ever - EVER - send a letter like that.  I don&#039;t know of any part time bookkeepers who&#039;d put out something so unprofessional, so poor.  

To me it looks like the work of some zit-faced, uneducated college staffer trying to &quot;help&quot; the cause.  &quot;Hey Trevor, go put something together - quick!&quot;</description>

		<description>This reminds me an awful lot of those documents that Dan Rather had fabricated for the 60 Minutes Story that made bloggers famous.

I appreciate the way you put these side by side for comparison and let us come to conclusions MDE.  

At best, this raises serious professionalism questions.

I think more likely, however, is that it raises very serious authenticity questions.  

If the worst is discovered, and the second document is found to have been fabricated to make it look like they addressed the issue, Franken is done as an aspiring politician, and will have lost the small amount of credibility he has as a spokesman for the far Left.  

This went from serious to fatally damaging (politically) if Franken doesn&#039;t address these questions.</description>
