More than two years after her upstart Senate campaign rocked the Delaware political world, Christine O'Donnell got an unexpected contact from a U.S. Treasury Department agent warning that her private tax records may have been breached.
The phone message earlier this year shocked the battled-scarred candidate, a tea party favorite who knocked off Republican mainstay Michael Castle in the primary before losing in a bid to win Vice President Joseph R. Biden's former seat.
"Ms. O'Donnell, this is Dennis Martel, special agent with the U.S. Department of Treasury in Baltimore, Md. ... We received information that your personal federal tax info may have been compromised and may have been misused by an individual," he said in the January message left on her cellphone.
For Ms. O'Donnell, the message immediately raised red flags. On March 9, 2010, the day she revealed her plan to run for the Senate in a press release, a tax lien was placed on a house purported to be hers and publicized. The problem was she no longer owned the house.

She is very attractive, and she should be a US Senator! That seat was stolen FRom her by sleazy LIEberals, both of the Democrat and Republican persuasion!
One of Rove’s biggest successes was sabotaging her campaign from the start.
I would not call that a success unless I were a LIEberal!
In Rove's and the GOP-E eyes that was a success.
I honestly think the GOP-E preferred to have the Rat win than her.
She had to fight Rats and Rinos from the get go.
I wrote him off a long time ago.
He is in it for the money — he knows the system is in melt down, and figures, along with the rest of the Evil Inside the Beltway crowd, that if he has enough money tucked away, when the SHTF event occurs, he and his buddies will be totally insulated FRom the mess.
Follow the money.
And we know Mr. Castle was her GOP opponent in the primary.
Ms. O'Donnell said she has reason to believe her political opponents were behind the scheme.
And they weren't necessarily democrats.
"An official with this investigation told me that there was evidence linking this inappropriate use of my tax records with the Delaware political leadership, Delaware political leaders on both sides of the aisle," she said, though she declined to identify the official with whom she spoke.
And here it begins to draw the curtain back on the one party system in DC.
In the midst of the 2010 campaign, long before it was revealed that her tax information had been accessed, Ms. O'Donnell's financial life was a subject of intense media scrutiny and was used repeatedly by her enemies.
Her enemies came from both political parties who are likely guns for hire, former low level political operatives that are contracted by both parties.
Republican Party heavyweight Karl Rove, who was an adviser to President George W. Bush, was among the critics who blasted Ms. O'Donnell for, among other things, falling behind on her mortgage.
And here it is laid bare. The IRS breach was highly likely an operation led by Rove backed the GOPe.
You, sir, have done your homework for us!
Taxman Bravo Zulu!
The 16th Amendment was never ratified.
Probably not. bill Benson claims in “The Law that Never Was” that several states did not properly ratify the 16th.
HST, the courts say it was properly ratified and that is what we have to deal with.
16th must be repealed!
