No use relying on ethics when a Democrat is involved.

The law is only for the poor, conservatives and those who chose to obey but not them, they are above the law.

I’ll not be holding my breath waiting for the same kind of wall to wall prime time coverage about this as there was for ole Ricky.

“I wonder where he pays taxes?”

You can bet your life if he has a choice between FL or MD it’s FL. MD taxes are obscene. The new Demonrat governor just held a special closed session of the legislature last year to raise taxes, not because they needed the money, he just wanted to spend more.

I was wondering what was the source of that foul odor. All this time it was that puking mutt Wexler.

This seems to work well for Rep. Ed Markey, too.

What is Florida’s legal definition of a resident?

What address does he use on his Federal Income Tax returns?

What receipts does he possess that show that he meets the state and Federal income tax requirements for residency?

That’s the larger question. He could be breaking a bunch of laws here.

But laws are for the little people, you know.

He lists his mother-in-laws' residence in an elderly area that doesn't allow children...

I hope at least it's rent-controlled.

Former Senator Tom Daschle similarly reported his mothers home in Aberdeen, SD as his state residence though he lived in his lobbyist wife’s mansion outside Washington, DC and only showed up in South Dakota to campaign and for photo ops.

I personally think this is potentially more significant than it might appear.I have not been able to research this fully, but several key points:

1. The issue of where a representative lives is addressed in the U.S. Constitution itself, therefore this is not a matter that the courts will take lightly.

2. The Constitution requires that a representative “be an Inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen”. The requirement is inhabitancy, not residence, not domicile. They are all different legal concepts.

3. A U.S. District Court addressed this issue when the Democrats challenged Dick Cheney’s qualifications for Vice President, alleging that he was an “inhabitant” of Texas, not Wyoming. The Court held that: “a person is an “inhabitant” of a state . . . if he (1) has a physical presence within that state and (2) intends that it be his place of habitation. The test for ascertaining inhabitance is thus a dual inquiry concerning physical presence in fact and intent to remain in or to return to the state after an absence.”

4. Based upon the facts presented on the show last night, I believe that there is a legitimate issue as to whether Wexler is constitutionally qualified to be seated in the House based upon his implicit assertion that he is an “inhabitant” of his in-laws home. He neither has a physical presence at that home and it certainly does not seem to be his intended place of habitation.
