Republican U. S. Senate candidate Ed Martin, the former chief of staff for Gov. Matt Blunt, issued the following statement after it was revealed that Sen. Claire McCaskill had not paid $300,000 worth of property taxes on her private plane:
“While taxpayer dollars subsidized her plane travel, Senator McCaskill was evading property taxes. Now that the taxpayer dollars are cut off, McCaskill is selling the plane. This is an embarrassment to Missourians and an insult to taxpayers but it only raises more questions about the hundreds of companies that the McCaskill family owns and, like the Air Claire companies, appear to pay no taxes.”
“It also provides a pointed lesson about liberal spending priorities.” Ed continued. “Her chartered plane was a good idea when subsidized by taxpayer money. Now it is not. How many billions of dollars are wasted propping up businesses whose place at the taxpayer trough is secured by big donations to rich liberal senators?”
“If McCaskill’s charter plane business fails because of the loss of one taxpayer-subsidized customer, it tells us a great deal about how her policies work in the real world.”
Mr. Morality.
ReplyDeleteWho in Governor Blunts office set up a 3rd party company to fleece fee offices in a big scam to look as if they were consultants and assisting fee agents in the running of the offices when in fact all they were doing was collecting money from agents Blunt appointed? (Agents that couldn't very well complain.)
Didn't that company turn out to be none other than Ed Martin's, Bunt's main boy?
Clean up your own backyard Martin. You of all people shouldn't be taking shots at anyone.
You can bet if he is connected in any way with the Blunts then he is crooked as they come.
ReplyDeleteThe issue wasn’t amount owed, it was credibility that Sarah has on taxes after another poster brought her into the fray. Sarah took advantage of the citizens who pay taxes in Alaska. Obviously, not to the degree Claire did.
