Obama's Marc Anthony Ad is Another Embarrassment for the Campaign

COMMENTARY | Yet another celebrity advertisement for President Barack Obama was unveiled earlier this week.

While Marc Anthony may be an attractive and accomplished singer, he likely does not have much in common with the typical Latino voter. Anthony's impassioned plea that Obama needs another term to continue "making progress" and that he "has our backs" during the video clip republished on The Blaze neglects to mention that Anthony himself has proven he cares little about the nation's debt.

According to document excerpts published by the Washington Free Beacon, Anthony is a "tax-dodger" who owed more than $3 million back taxes.

Obama staffers should check into the backgrounds of the celebrities they use in campaign commercials. Although Anthony negotiated a settlement with the government on his back taxes in 2010, it reflects poorly on Obama's character that he would befriend the scofflaw singer.

Financial statistics republished by the Washington Free Beacon note that Anthony made more than $15 million during a five-year period. Apparently Obama's goal of forcing wealthy Americans to pay their fair share does not apply to his pals.

If the libs don’t want to pay their taxes then why do they continue to support tax raising dems like BO who just want to take MORE of their money. Oh yeah, libs and hollywood celebs are stupid. Can’t put 2 and 2 together. They just want to appear to be cool. Image is all that matters to these fools.
