Glen Beck
Beck falsely claimed starting next year in the health care bill for some unknown reason, if you sell anything worth more than $600, you need to send out a 1099 . In fact, provision requires businesses to file a 1099 for purchases of more than $600. The Wall Street Journal reported on July 29:In reality, starting in 2012, businesses will be required to file a 1099 to the Internal Revenue Service for each supplier or service provider to which payments exceed $600 in a single year.

Scott Brown acts completely unconcerned that a man flew a plan into a Texas Federal Building and dismisses the event by saying,"Nobody likes to pay taxes"

Rick Perry
In April of 2009, Rick Perry met in front of Tea Party members and brought up that Texas could secede from the union, if it ever wanted to. He said it probably will never come to that, but the way Washington keeps thumbing their nose at the American people, who knows what might happen.
