When accounting goes unaccounted for
Somewhere in the whole mishmash of yesterday’s events leading up to the House’s passage of chicken crap, Joseph Crowley took to the floor to remind us know that it’s just not wealthy humans that stand to benefit greatly from tax cuts.

Dare we say, Keyshawn is being pragmatic here?
A few favorite moments:
Keyshawn: That’s what I’m being told. I don’t know any better. [Every Fox employee is laughing hysterically]
Charles Payne: If there was only 30% of what you made there. When do you say, “You know what? Who’s the Republican running for office?”
Keyshawn: Let’s not always make it about money. [If you listen carefully you can hear Charles Payne soiling himself.]
Payne: Even the guy that is 3rd string?
Keyshawn: Some of those New York Jets guys, as we know, are that responsible when they drink? [Sanchez?]
Any other takeaways? Discuss.

Recently, Congressman Paul Ryan (R-WI) was chattin’ up some citizens at a townhall meeting where he told a little anecdote about asking a GE “tax officer” how long the company’s tax return was for this year. He was told (and the Weekly Standard confirmed) that it was in the nabe of 57,000 pages. Granted, GE filed their return electronically, so there’s no way we can officially know what the count is but the combination of the world’s best tax law firm and a grip of savvy loaned KPMG employees managed to keep it under 60k. Nice job, everyone. [TWS via TaxProf]
