Emne: You've got to love those politicans!

DEMOCRATS BY THE NUMBER New Townhall.com blogger Dwayne Horner
recently compiled a stunning list of the tax transgressions by those
writing, creating and implementing the nation's tax policy. And so much more here.

$34,000: the amount of federal taxes that Secretary
of the Treasury Timothy Geithner (D) failed to pay during his
employment at the International Monetary Fund despite receiving extra
compensation and explanatory brochures that described his tax
liabilities.

$75,000: the amount of money that the head of the powerful
tax-writing committee, Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-NY), was forced to report
on his taxes after the discovery that he had not reported income from a
Costa Rican rental property. His excuses for the failure started with
blaming his wife, then his accountant and finally the fact that he
didn't speak Spanish.

$140,000: the amount of back taxes and interest that Cabinet nominee Tom Daschle (D)
was forced to cough up after the vetting process revealed significant, unexplained tax liabilities.

$800,000: the amount of "sweetheart" mortgages Senate Banking
Chairman Chris Dodd (D-CT) received from Countrywide Financial, the
details for which he has refused to release details despite months of
promises to do so.

Jim Dandy: This will haunt him. Very poor judgment on his part and he's much smarter than that.

Believe me, we had plenty of politics on fellowship boards, thats where a lot of this all comes from, a lot of baggage that you arent aware of, and sometimes it comes down onto you, and you arent sure why.

But, we conservatives spent a lot of time the past 8 years defending.... its a relief to finally be done with that, and its nice to throw some of it back now... even if it seems too much too soon.... But the most frustrating part is if the liberals who threw it at us so hard for 8 years, just turn and disappear now that the same things are happening in reverse, well that would be no fun!
