"Most ethical administration ever." < /sarcasm>

All of this is very amusing, but not especially surprising. Given all we know about the Obamantion and his background and the fact that the MSM failed in their duty to cover this stuff, it is all VERY predictable.

Great going, 0. What is that about 95% of your choices have “tax issues?”

I’m sensing a revolution coming - Americans are getting FED UP with this whole miserable excuse for a gov’t!

[dominic flandry]

The liberal wants to tax you and not him or her self. Why else would the liberal believe he or she should tell others how to live their lives but not how the liberal lives his or hers. Examples are: Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi, Michael Moore and Hillary Clinton.

[an amused spectator]

Are we not allowed to direct link there? I couldn’t find any info on it.

[peace with honor]

let me think, how many of Bush’s nominees were found out to owe taxes?? OH THAT’S RIGHT, NONE OF THEM

[staytrue]

from the article:

“Los Angeles County records showed 15 outstanding state and county tax liens against Sam Sayyad and his auto repair business, totaling $7,630. Two other liens worth $981 were released in 1999 after Sayyad repaid the taxes owed, according to county records. “

Sorry guys, but 7k in taxes is not a big deal.

For those of playing at home, what’s the latest score?

From The One’s job questionairre -

Question 34 - Have you and your spouse filed all required federal, state, local and foreign income tax returns?

Question 36 - Have you ever paid any tax penalties? If so, describe the circumstances and the resolution of the matter.

Question 37 - Has a tax lien or other collection procedure ever been instituted against you or your spouse by federal, state or local authorities? If so, describe the circumstances and the resolution of the matter.

Obozo’s applicants may not possess good reading and comprehension skills ... or is it an arrogance? Hmmmmm.

I don’t know why this is shocking to anyone, Joe said that “paying taxes is patriotic”, it should have been a given that democrats weren’t paying their taxas.

[CharlesWayneCT]

If we could just keep nominating Democrats and checking them out, we could pay off the deficit.

[freekitty]

Do any of these bozos actually pay taxes or do they just abuse the system?

[LikeLight]

Liberals: in favor of higher taxes, but not in favor of paying them

Great formula! Absolutely true.

I wonder how Kerik and his lawsuit is going.

[Flycatcher]

Sorry guys, but 7k in taxes is not a big deal.

I'm sure that will be the talking point coming from these elitist cheats.
