Amazing. What is wrong with these Hollywood types? They have more money than they would ever need but they have to evade taxation (yes, it is beyond excessive) and get in trouble.

I would ask “why don’t they fight taxation at the voting polls?” but these are the clowns that vote for socialist tax-and-spend nutjobs like Hillary — are they just not self-defeating???

taxes don't hurt the rich - they prevent you from becoming rich

Good for the judge. Looks like a Nixon appointee.

Wesley should consider the fact that the judges and the high priced attorneys who practice before their courts attend the same country clubs. Calling one or the other incompetent will not get you any points with either of them.

Until Snipes fired him, William Martin--who represents Michael Vick and Senator Larry Craig--headed a five-lawyer team defending Snipes on felony tax and conspiracy charges.

Holy crap, imagine a practice that seeks out that type of client?

I'd fire him too! Doesn't sound like much of a winning record!

He hired a tax protester for a lawyer? He is toast.

But Snipes's request for a trial delay was almost immediately rejected by Judge William Terrell Hodges, who yesterday issued a blistering order noting that, "This series of events would lead any reasonable person to suspect that the defendant's dismissal of able counsel is nothing more than a ploy designed to force a continuance of the trial."

Judge William Terrell Hodges, who lives entirely on charitable handouts from well-meaning local citizenry and wouldn't take a DIME in tax money for his salary and retirement benefits, was rightfully indignant over Snipes' intransigence.

"Any reasonable person would suspect that a judge like me that got paid from tax dollars seized from citizens might be biased in a tax case like this. Fortunately, I'm a bum that panhandles my living from good Samaritans at the local park. Or not."
