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.

anastasia: I'll say one thing,Obama is bound to make enough mistakes during his presidency,these flawed appointments could have been avoided.Why he's giving his opponents freebies baffles me

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!
Artful Dodger: as has every other for the past...oh,I dunno...FOREVER...untill we all carpool to Washington and crash the gates and forcefully take back DC..not to much I can do,is there?
