I hate to burst the bubble of all you dreamers, but heres a news flash for you. All these scumbag politicians, republicans and democrats are always trying to find ways to avoid taxes. This really is something new that is happening all of a sudden in our society. Democrats are just in the spotlite right now, thats why your seeing their dirty secrets being exposed.
But for some of you to sit here and say its just democrats not paying your taxes, am sorry but you are clueless.
Nice attempt to gloss over the issue. I love that argument - kind of like when the Patriots got caught taping other teams defenses the argument was "well every team does it".
You really have no foot to stand on here. These are the people Obama is putting into key positions and they have some serious ethical issues.
NO, not every politician does it. Sorry, making some broad unsupported statement like that won't get you far. The fact is, right now there are plenty of democrats with some huge tax issues, yet the media isn't making a big deal about it - big surprise.
Trying to come into this thread and make like Republicans are just as bad is silly. Stick to the facts at hand: Geithner, Daschle, Rangle, Killefer, Dodd.......
If you want to claim that Republicans are having the same problem right now, present some evidence.
You can't. What we do know right now is there are a flurry of democrats with some serious issues.
But like I said above, this has less to do with republicans versus democrats, its more about the people Obama is trusting to key positions.
Nice try though.
