The House of Lords not only cover for each other in a bipartisan way, but Their Lordships now go out of their ways to cover for appointment nominees not even yet approved for their posts.
I continue to live in the Twilight Zone with no exit.
Help!

This is an absolute outrage. Every tax paying American should be infuriated.
No problem here!! After all he’s endorsed by Hussein Obama and the rest of the RATS. The Congressional Tax committeee is headed by Charley Rangel and he doesn’t pay taxes either. After all the bureaucrats with their endorsement of MSM are above the rest of us slobs who pay diligently every year.
He paid half of what he owed and was forgiven for the rest.
Only now has he paid the rest of his debt.
That debt was owed to us, the American taxpayer and I am not amused.
Just an innocent oversight. No problem.
Didn’t one of King William’s early nominees (a woman, the name escapes me at the moment) get torpedoed for exactly the same thing?
I have to hand it to Hussein. He had a pretty low bar to jump when it came to finding a new treasury secretary, and he managed to screw that one up. At least Hank Paulson paid his taxes.
I propose that all Americans “Forget” to pay their taxes for the next 4 years.
...Might be my ever changing tag line, beginning to unravel...
But there are none, and probably won't be any because we are trapped in the Twilight Zone where the rays of light are blocked out by the Princes of Darkness (the corrupt, amoral Media and Political elites).

Put your mouths where your typing is.....flood these equally corrupt bastados with protesting e-mails.
Consider this a freep. This is what we're here for.
If not us, who?

I'm hoping his nomination is unanimously approved.
Timothy Geithner a new hero to all tax evaders.
From what I can gather, apparently W-2's, rather than 1099's, were issued to certain government independent contractors although no FICA taxes had been withheld.
I can't imagine a scenario where an accountant who reviewed this guy's taxes (which he apparently prepared himself) could miss this.
Fox News had a report on this yesterday and said that the IMF had notified people of this issue, but apparently the latest Obama oligarch ignored it.
The lovely Democratic culture of corruption.
It used to be that having an illegal alien housekeeper was enought to kill an appointment.
Now, not only can a Democrat have an illegal alien housekeeper, he doesn’t have to pay his income taxes and he will still be appointed.
DISGUSTING. So he should be in charge of OUR tax money?
This is the first case I have seen where a guy who works for the government (not a particularly high paying job) makes an "honest" mistake of failing to pay taxes that are the functional equivalent of the entire income tax burden of a guy making about $80,000 a year over a period of 4 years.
Honest mistake?
Tell that to the jury.
Oh wait, "I forgot" he's a democrat. That's an "honest mistake". There won't even be an indictment.
With all the crooks in Congress, I'm guessing his nomination will be approved unanimously.
Forgot for four years???!??
That’s a LOT or forgrttin, man!
