Cooking Up a Kentucky Fried Lawsuit

KFC's been busy pushing their new "grilled" chicken. It showed up in CBS sitcoms such as Gary Unmarried and even made an appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show. In fact, Oprah was so enamoured with KFC's new life-like grilled chicken she offered to buy everyone in America some, either that or KFC paid the day-time talk Queen an ass load of money to push their chicken-like product.

Whichever was the true reason behind the offer, viewers could visit Oprah's website and print off a coupon good for one free two piece grilled chicken meal. The offer is was good at participating restaurants, while supplies last, until 5/19, excluding Mother's Day. (We couldn't quite get our small print as small and undreadable as KFC, but you get the idea.)

The problem for Kansas Citians, KFCs in the area have decided their supplies of grilled chicken no longer last. However, that doesn't stop them from trying to sell patrons their two-piece grilled chicken meal for $3.99.

One can't help but wonder how KFC will avoid a class action lawsuit for refusing to honor a coupon for which their is obviously supply on hand.

bait and switch - a form of fraud in which the party putting forth the fraud lures in customers by advertising a product or service at an unprofitably low price, then reveals to potential customers that the advertised good is not available but that a substitute is.

Claire McCaskill, Tax Cheat

You can add Claire McCaskill, Missouri Democrat, to the growing list of Democrats who want to raise your taxes while avoiding to pay their own.

McCaskill has a Bermuda-based tax shelter, something President Obama called, "the largest tax scam in the world," where she's managed to hide over $1,000,000 to avoid paying taxes.

McCaskill issued the following statement regarding the tax shelter:

"Like Warren Buffet, my husband has an investment in a reinsurance company in a foreign country that has never been a tax benefit to [us] nor will there ever be a tax benefit for this investment."

Unfortunately, she said just the opposite to the Kansas City "Red" Star during her 2006 campaign saying that Rural Reinsurance Company International, Ltd., existed as a tax shelter. In that same article, the Citizen's for Tax Justice said:

"It’s all about avoiding taxes. That’s the whole point of them. I’ve heard so many excuses for doing it. But why is it in Bermuda? There’s only one reason. Because of taxes."

At least fellow tax cheat Tim Geithner is going to close these tax shelter loopholes so Claire can eventually pay her patriotic fair share of the tax burden.

Happy Cinco de Quatro!

President Obama would like to welcome all to "Cinco de Quatro"!

Could PBS's Bill Moyers be responsible for this "public safety" video?

Chris Dodd Says Waterboarding Same as Incinerating 6 Million Jews

Aside from taking a sweatheart and most likely illegal loan from Countrywide, a bank directly involved in the subprime mortgage scandal, and being the one man responsible for adding language that authorized AIG executives receipt of lucrative bonuses after receiving government bailout money, is it any wonder only five Connecticutans... Connecticuters... er residents of Connecticut have donated to Democrat Senator Chris Dodd's 2010 re-election campaign?
