Bits and Pieces- Questionable PR

Perhaps the topic today is "How in the world can you miss THIS when vetting people?" along with other PR nightmares....

  • Taxes
How tough can it be, especially when you are wealthy and can afford good accountants. Or maybe that is the problem. I have a hunch there will be better compliance in this year's tax collections on both sides of the aisle.
  • The Holocaust
The Pope decides to remove the sanctions against a number of priests and then finds out he is a Holocaust denier. Germany doesn't deny it. The German-born Pope who knew the Nazi party up close doesn't deny it. Only an anti-Semite would.
  • Church Hush Money
New Life Church, it seems, paid something that could be construed as hush money to a young man who former pastor Ted Haggard had taken advantage of one night. Only when Haggard is out on his redemption tour promoting a documentary does it come out.
  • Ex-Governor Blago
On and on he goes, the Energizer Bunny of impeached politicians. Does he really believe what he says? Does he truly think that his words didn't mean what he said? Does he really believe we even care?
