This morning as seen here (saved here at my web host for future reference), an unbylined 90-word Associated Press report at 9:57 a.m. told readers the following, in part: Facing criticism over the amount of taxes it pays, General Electric announced it will repay its entire $3.2 billion tax refund to the US Treasury on April 18.

That is only the beginning as Barack Obama is just weeks into his unchecked, unbalanced presidency. These Senators have brought dishonor to our party and we can no longer afford to allow them to hide behind the Republican banner.
