If I lived in MN I would pay 1/2 taxes for the parts of 2009 I had 1/2 representation

[K8-EEE]

I don't suppose the "teabaggers" are at all concerned that Minnesota is being denied equal representation because of frivolous lawsuits launched by LOSER Coleman!

1. The IRS does not tend to appreciate political statements made through tax nonpayment.

They're real spoilsports about that.

[northzax]

5. yep.

I strongly urge people not to do this. you really don't want the IRS paying attention to you.

[K8-EEE]

7. You're right of course!

I just meant, they have more of a reason to be teabaggin' than the tantrummers at Faux.

[northzax]

2. well technically, of course

you'd be paying 2/3rds of your taxes, since you still have a congressional rep. unless you live in Bachmann's district, then you just have entertainment.

dc, on the other hand...

3. Wait a minute, this is an idea

REAL tea parties, in the spirit of the 1773 protest, would stress taxation without representation, which is what Minnesotans have in this case. Or at least half representation.

[K8-EEE]

8. yeah MN tea parties TO GET REPRESENTATION!

And they could do it without the juvenile Fux drama queen hysteria, it would be a nice contrast.

4. You should probably ask someone from DC that question.

6. I've said it before and I'll say it again and again

we've only had one Senator since Wellstone died so we're used to this - and this is better than having Norman back in there and working against us.

Though, with Klobuchar flirting with Blue Dogs, we may soon be down to no representation in the Senate.

[lies and propaganda]

9. i said the very same thing today..

I have a girlfriend in Bemidji who has been under water for two weeks now and shes got one lunatic Rep obsessed with fame and one obstructionist Senator laving them with one voice.. and the state is broke as shit and no one can find work.
