He didn’t even have a home in Florida, although he was elected to the House from Florida...........only one in the Washington area.

Yeah....he lived in Maryland but had a “residence” in Florida so he wouldn’t be subject to Maryland income taxes. No problem for a RAT, though....(Unbelieveably, not having a real residence in Florida is not an issue with respect to representing a Florida congressional district.)

Hmmm... that could have been him... or any other Congressional Democrat.

I think you are right. I heard Rush talk about it. This guy represents Rush’s district.

Right, which is odd b/c of the clear tax advantage it is to be a Florida resident.

Wexler also had a very strange event in the past few months.Strange in that it happened while Obama was in Ghana and the Secret Service got involved. Very curious that now he is ‘resigning’.

(snip)

The Sun Sentential reports Florida Congressman Robert Wexler Targeted in Identity Theft Extortion

Extortionist from Ghana threatened to turn over congressman’s Social Security number to thieves. Other members of Congress also said to be targeted.

The alleged extortionist has been arrested and remains in custody in Ghana.

Wexler, D-Boca Raton, refused reported the plot to the Secret Service and Capitol Police.

His attorney Pamela J. Marple, issued a statement:

“Congressman Wexler greatly appreciates the professionalism and ongoing assistance of the United States Secret Service and Capitol Police regarding a matter where he was targeted as a member of Congress and was the victim of crime involving extortion and attempted identity theft. This remains an ongoing legal matter that will be closely monitored.”

The Ghanaian telephoned Wexler this month while President Barack Obama was visiting Ghana, guarded by Secret Service agents. Wexler reported the matter to the Secret Service while they were in the country, which helped the investigation.”

He claimed his MIL’s home as his Florida residence. It was a seniors only community, so it wasn’t possible for his school-aged children to live there while they were enrolled in Maryland schools.

I believe that although he represents Florida he actually resides in Maryland. He "official" FL residence is a rented condo.
