Pardon the vanity in breaking news, but we can not link to USA Today articles and the Labor Secretary is about to be voted on this afternoon.

The link above can be followed to find the article in keeping with no direct linking to USA Today policy.

It was learned just hours prior to the confirmation vote that the usband of Obama's Labor nominee paid tax liens that had been outstanding for as long as 16 years.

Had to dance around the rules to get this breaking news out there that FR poster "an amused spectator" found. Hopefully I did not break policy as this is too important to ignore.

Yeah, but the Nominee is the ONLY one who can fill the position.

(I say if ONLY “one” person is capable of running a department, then the department should probably be shut down.)

Well, one thing is for certain. The Democrats don’t believe in our draconian tax structure in this nation either.

The difference is, the Republicans abide by the law.

Democrats love taxes for other people.

Democrats themselves are all tax cheats.

Well, maybe it was a Democratic marriage. She actually doesn't know the man or his whereabouts, just like Clinton. They meet just once or twice a year for photo ops.

Five in a row ~ Charles Rangel, Chairman of the Powerful House Ways & Means Committee,is a well-known tax evaer.

Democrats seem to be helpless to deal with this ~ it's like they never imagined that taxes they imposed on others would also be collected from them.

This who crowd are too stupid to be allowed to hold government jobs.

What the heck is with liberals, anyway?

They’re in favor of higher taxes, but not in favor of paying them?

Seems strange to me.
