Andrea Mitchell feels Tom Daschle’s pain

Andrea Mitchell feels badly for tax-dodgin’ Tom Daschle. She really does. “I just got off the phone with Tom Daschle,” she said sympathetically on MSNBC. “And it was an emotional conversation…it sounded as though he were tearful, overwrought.” When Republican Senator Jim DeMint contended that Democrat support for Daschle’s nomination had wavered, Mitchell was clearly upset. “You can say that the Democrats were uncomfortable as well,” Mitchell lectured, “but they were all supporting him publicly.” “So this does read to the public as though the Republicans went after this man,” she wondered aloud, “someone that the President very much wanted, and brought him down.” Like opposing the confirmation of a felonious tax cheat is a bad thing?

Poor Tom...he'll have to go back to his $2.5 million per year lobbying/consulting work. A damned shame.

Note to Andera Mitchell- Shut up. Dont you know it is better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it and leave no doubt?

This is a “progressive” disease. The pain will spread.

In every word I've ever heard Little Tommy say he sounds tearful and overwrought. Its like listening to Richard Simmons. Come to think of it, have they ever been seen in the same room together?

Mr. Daschle went down in flames because he lied to the POTUS and because he evaded taxes.

Other than that, he’s one righteous dude.

IF this had been a Republican President, on the FIRST appointment of a tax cheat, the Democrats would have been screaming to high heaven for his withdrawal if not for his execution, because Democrats are given a special dispensation from the media to ignore the law and cheat all they want. Obama had already had several tax cheats get past the Republicans and be confirmed. - Enough is enough. - The media is a laughingstock.

She should be investigated to see if she's paying taxes on that money the dems are paying her to advertise their party line.

How can she even pretend to be a journalist when she is clearly hawking liberalism

Andrea, “(m)ake no mistake. Tax cheaters cheat us all. The IRS should enforce our laws to the letter.” Or. at least that’s what Daschle thought in ‘98.
