The man is the least qualified individual to ever get a party nomination for president. I shudder at the thought of him being President... Twice as bad as Bill Clinton and I never thought anything could be worse... Kerry is a legitimate traitor to the country.

Tony Snow mentioned this and the amount earned jumped a million from the last figure I saw.

Some 527 group needs to do a commercial detailing the tax evasion of the two Johns. Background audio: Edwards saying, "We're working for YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

I'm assuming that most of their investments are in tax free munis, which is not a loophole. If there is a different explanation, such as offshore tax shelters, that would be bad forkerry.

So when are the Republicans going to run ads about this? The old media certainly won't dare to tell the truth on this issue, or will they? Perhaps Sen Clinton will have to nudge them along.

My effective tax rate is over 20%.

Man I hope hell is like South Park imagines it to be.

Using democratic math, I have to pay three times as much taxes as he & T do.

The problem with the budget deficit is that Democratic Senators are not paying their fair share (Kennedy, Daschle, Kerry, et. al.)!

They should pass a law that says if you want to vote Democrat, you need to double the taxes otherwise due.

In that case, they would be getting hit by the AMT.

I'm assuming that much of this is due to Tereeeza putting millions of dollars into irrevocable trusts for her kids.

Remember, her reluctance to put out her tax return was to "protect the privacy of my kids."
