If they're registered as sole proprietorships/partnerships, then technically payroll is 'out of his own pocket' inasmuch as the business's income is his personal income and the business's expenses are his expenses. But it's still a weaselly turn of phrase.

...can't view Youtube at work.  Remember that thing where you should probably give a one-sentence summary of a link you're posting?  I may have mentioned it once or twice.

Found a CBS article referencing a pro-racial profiling ad that he ran last year.  Is this the same one, or a new one?

it's the same one, Thad.

Edit: on a related note
Mac Parody - CONGRESS

Hyperbole to be sure, but this is a nifty example of the difference between a senator and a representative.

But wait! There's more! The Syrian actor who played one of the terrorists in that video is pro racial profiling

Who was it who had a bunch of black kids acting all "Gang-ster" in their ad? I think we posted it here two or three months ago. Similar sort of premise, really.

Whenever they do these kind of ads, the Uncle Toms are seriously the saddest part.

Watching that video I honestly don't think that the guy who argues for racial profiling knows what it is.

They're building one hell of an ad against themselves.

"Right now, an old enemy of American liberty is producing new weapons, attacking our soldiers, and gathering in increasing numbers to chant 'Let him die'..."

So far all the right wing guys I know who've seen it are all "Oh it's only two guys" whenever the boos come out.

By golly! If only we could find those same two guys who keep booing in all these videos! Why, we could solve our prejudice problems once and for all!

Well, it was just a couple guys in the "let him die" case. But in the "Rick Perry has executed more people than any other governor" and "I'm a gay soldier" cases, it was a whole lot more than that.

Yeah, only a couple of people were indeed comfortable enough to yell "Let Him Die", but they were pretty obviously saying what the majority of those people were presumably thinking as they cheered on Ron Paul for saying that people should be "responsible for their decisions".

Republican Crowd Boos Gay Soldier at GOP Fox News Google Debate

Video of the disgusting display.

Don't most other employers state, point-blank, that they cannot discriminate hiring or firing based on gender, race, creed, nationality, or sexual orientation?  How does the military get off getting a free ride?

Yes, I'm aware that I served in the military.  I kept my sexuality to myself, because, quite frankly, it was nobody's damn business.
