The tax free gift that keeps on giving.
The new Democratic mantra - pay your taxes so we don't have to.
Also as a rather astute bit of analysis, I'd offer that this tremendously undercuts the taxation without misrepresentation argument the District is fond of making when it seeks out statehood every other Tuesday and Thursday. With another Obama nominee going down for a failure to pay all of their taxes and liberals notoriously stingy when it comes to charitable giving, one has to wonder which party really is the party of greed?
WASHINGTON (AP) - Nancy Killefer, who failed for a year and a half to pay employment taxes on household help, has withdrawn her candidacy to be the first chief performance officer for the federal government, the White House said Tuesday. Killefer was the second major Obama administration nominee to withdraw and the third to have tax problems complicate their nomination after President Barack Obama announced their selection.
Can we call them un-American now, as Biden informed us that paying up is indeed one of the highest forms of patriotism?
Yeah, I admit it, it's getting fun, again!
Who would have thought the "change" Barry promised meant what was left in your pockets after these thieves were done!
They should just go out and check the tax records of ALL Democrats. Chances are there would find a hell of a lot more of these low life tax cheats.
These bastards should be in jail! That would send a message to the rest of them that cheating on your taxes is not a prerequisite to a government office especially a cabinet position.
Chicago politics in Washington..umm..umm good!

Remember the song "Send in the Clowns"?
Well, do re mi mi mi:
"Send in the Ds
There ought to be Ds
Well maybe next year."

Now we know why liberal Democrats like to raise taxes. Hell, they don't pay any!
