BACKSTORY January 2007 USA Today reported on Emanuel and his wifes tax-exempt "foundation" (operated out of their Chicago residence). The tax-exempt "Rahm Emanuel and Amy Rule Charitable Trust" was formed in 2002, when the 4-term Chicagoan was first elected to Congress. Rahm and his wife, Amy Rule (a convert to Judaism), are its only donors. At one point the Emanuels did not pay real estate taxes b/c their residence is the tax-exempt foundation's office. According to the Cook County Assessors website multi-millionaire Rahm Emanuel's Chicago home doesnt exist. There seems to be no public record of Emanuel ever paying property taxes on this home. he Cook County Assessors and Cook County Treasurers online records indicate Emanuels neighbors pay between $3,500-$7,000 annually. Illinois Review was unable to locate any evidence that Emanuel--- a multi-millionaire---was paying taxes.
REFERENCE 4-term Congressman Rahm was beatified as the man who masterminded the Congress and WH Dem takeover. Rahm ran the "Our Common Values PAC" in 2005 and chaired the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee 2006-07. Rahm had Dems winning in solid Republican districts running as "true believers." Maoist Ohaha won saying things like, "I want to be another Reagan."
THE DEM TAKEOVER : In the 2006-08 congressional elections, Rahm Emanuel fielded candidates who were cued to babble in local conservative parlance. Similarly, Rahm and Axelrod catapaulted Barack Obama to national prominence by stressing commonalities of Blue and Red America (not how they differed). Maoist Anita Dunn's PR strategy was not to let the press interview Obama so that his calculated long-distance attacks on "failed Bush policies" left it ambiguous whether he was objecting to Republican ideology or incompetence.
No one was allowed to know Obama was an abortion worshipper, and that as a Chicago pol, Obama refused to let a law pass that protected babies born alive from abortions.....Maoist Obama said he was "afraid" banning P/B abortion would infringe on women's "rights" and doctor's "rights." Obama as a Columbia undergraduate was parroting leftist criticisms of Ronald Reagan. But when he ran in 2008, his handlers cued Maoist Obama to dupe voters......saying things like "I want to be another Reagan."
People pay late. Burn him for the multitude of other reasons.
Emmanuelle’s wife and family live in Chicago. She must be too busy to pay the property taxes.
Is this the same residence that he was claiming was a non-profit center?
Since when did Rahm start having to pay property taxes?
Now that I think about it, I never received a bill from the gummint for income tax last year! So, I guess there shouldn’t be a problem with not paying it.
WTF is wrong with Rahm Emanuel? If Tim Geithner could get away with not paying taxes then why did Rahm cave?
The Monkey Elites don't pay taxes. Taxes are for working suckers to pay.
Easier for him to pay this and make it go away than to stick to his guns and have someone start looking into the “foundation’s” books and tax-exempt status.
Anyone else think Rahm is getting ready to be thrown under the bus for the job offers and is getting things in order to run for his old seat again?
I set up a yearly reminder on my Google Calendar for such things. I would think that Rahm would have an accountant keeping track of such.
"Rahm Emanuel has owned his home in Chicago for 11 years and has always paid his obligations promptly. He never received this particular bill,
He got the Tax Bill alright, you can bet the rent on it.
Plus after your mortgage is paid off, EVERYONE knows when their Property Tax Bill payments are due. Be it in Cook County, DuPage County or Johnson County - which is so far South in IL it may as well be part of Ala-fricken-bama(/s).
In Cook it's March, in DuPage it's May 31st - don't know about Johnson County but that's besides the point. Those dates are like April 15th for us in Illinois (aka: Kingdom of Daley). You don't 'forget it' - period. Tax Bill or no Tax Bill in hand.
Rahm just figured he was above paying it, or he'd pay it when HE dam wanted to. And that's all that's to it.
Here’s the Google satellite link, for those who want to tour the neighborhood around his 4232 N.Hermitage Residence. He’s the fourth house South of Helen Zatterburg Park, on the West side of the street.
Remember, property tax bills come at different times each year. If no one was checking the mail, he had an excuse. < /sarc>
