If only it were true. I am sure that Jane and Kos know that if you form and LLC that you have to be a member of the LLC and that is filed with the state.

If you are not a member of an LLC and you sell your property to an LLC that you are not a member of, you sold your property.

If you are a member of an LLC you are required by law to submit your K1 form for that LLC with your tax return.

Of somone gives you $1.1 Million from an LLC that you are not a member of and you report it on you tax return as a capital gain, you screwed the American People.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer ran one reporter’s story under another reporter’s name? That’s not very professional. Sounds chickenshit to me.

WRite ‘em and let ‘em know you’re on to their scam.

The Cleveland (Ohio) Plain Dealer ran the AP Reid story without John Solomon’s byline. They only listed Kathleen Hennessey as the reporter. Possibly they realize that his name is toxic in this blue corner of Ohio.

Until Harry is actually indicted for something, I’ll consider this just more of the same old GOP bullshit.

Sorry, but if Harry Reid did do something shady, he should fess up and, if bad enough, think about resigning. If we’re tired of the GOP’s corruption, we must also be realistic about corruption on our side as well and do everything we can to discourage or punish it. End of story. We’re too close now to let anyone, including Democrats with sticky fingers, screw us over this close to november!

Okay, let’s investigate Harry Reid, right after we spend as much time and money going after Denny Hastert and his illgotten gains in a shady land deal.

Sauce, goose, gander.

Sorry to barge in OT, but this is too sweet not to share. A new batch of Get Your War On cartoons is out, and this one line deserves the widest possible distribution:

Too bad the writ of habeas corpus wasn’t written in 1990! Because then it would be sixteen years old, and people would be scandalized when politicians started fucking with it.

This does not appear to have been mentioned: since an LLC is not a corporation and not taxed as its own entity it can not OWN property of any sort. Any piece of property attached to an LLC accrues for profit, loss, and tax purposes to the LLC owners in direct proportion to their ownership percentage.

So nothing even characterizable as “sloppy” by my reading and as a ten year veteran of LLC ownership and tax preparation thereof.

Fire off a Letter to the Editor of your local paper whenever they carry a John Solomon article.

AP doesn’t care about our complaints — they consider stories that generate buzz to be good for business. Accuracy and fairness isn’t a metric for them but they probably are for your local paper.

Be specific and nice but let them know the guy’s stories are fluff and not well researched, He’s unreliable and a low quality writer. Maybe they’ll think twice about running with a John Solomon Special.

Mrs. K8,
I wish! No, I’m in Ohio.
