But...but...but Tom Daschle apologized.

That makes it ok, doesn't it?

Good grief... maybe we can use that excuse when we decide not to pay our taxes.

[DJ Frisat]

At this rate, Obama ought to be named IRS Enforcement Agent of the Year, as he nominates these jerks and gets them to cough up back taxes...

[gakrak]

The answer to the question “Do Democrats ever pay taxes” is a resounding, NO. They only want to spend other peoples money. Paying taxes according to our VP is patriotic and we know the Dumbs are not that. Amen.

It appears that Harry and Nancy are in charge. They are ramming thru every piece of pork they can. Obama is just a puppet.

I never thought I would see the day that tax evasion was considered a prerequisite for employment with the US Treasury Department. Our laws do not apply to Obama’s appointees. They dress up real crimes as “honest mistakes” or “serious mistakes” and create a semi formal hearing to show that they are being “transparent.” Intuit stated that Geinther’s tax problems were not the fault of the software. Dashle, we already know about this guy. $145,000 tax problem with him is no surprise. Both, paid the back taxes when it was convenient.

Obama has changed the interpretation of our laws and who they apply too. These are indisputable facts that are impossible to invalidate.

[Hardastarboard]

imagine Bill Clinton or George Bush getting away with picking a Treasury secretary who didn’t pay his own taxes

Clinton WOULD have gotten away with it; Bush wouldn't have. But that's because liberals only scream when it's not their guy - they don't care whether it's right or wrong. Conservatives scream when it's wrong, whether it's their guy or not. That's one of the key differences I've notice between the two ideologies.

...guess the chosen one has waved all the questions on the job applications for appointments. The MSM worked up the story about how people would get positions ethically. Two weeks into the batboy’s administration, and we see several “personal wavers”. His pardon list should be something to look forward too

Not ONLY are they TAX CHEATS, BUT they want to be in CHARGE of Depts like the IRS and Timmy wants to be in charge of MEDICARE when he DIDN’T PAY MEDICARE TAXES!!!!!

The only two that have no tax problems are the REPUBLICANS!!

Hi Michael! Good article.

I'm not sure whether the Boston Herald changed the page location, or your link was just mis-posted.

Also, I'm pretty sure Geithner didn't even pay interest on his back taxes. And no penalties. And Daschle didn't pay any penalties either, though he did pay some interest on the back taxes.

Do you think that you or I would have gotten by without a penalty assessed for this kind of tax cheating?

[appleseed]

Tim Geithner and Tom Daschle, too corrupt to fail.
Tony Rezko, knows too much to fail.
Bill and Hillary too useful to fail.
George Soros, too much money to fail.
Pelosi and Ried, too stupid to fail.
Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Rev. Wright, too black to fail.
Barney Frank, too gay to fail.
Blago, just the right one to fail so above have cover to show bipartisanship.

Sure, they pay their taxes when they're up for a Cabinet position and they're caught. No penalties or interest though, just a smug shrug and claims of ignorance of the law. We, The Peons would be sent to jail.

Our government is so corrupt, so fat and laughing and decadent, that it has become a royal circus and a maggot farm.

Since he didn’t pay taxes, he had plenty of money to donate to Dem. causes:

Obama also backed known tax cheat and illegal alien employer Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg for Hillary’s Senate seat.

Why would Democrats pay taxes when they spend other people’s money?
