Tom Daschle said Monday that he's "deeply embarrassed and disappointed" about his failure to pay more than $120,000 in taxes.So what? Let him rot in Federal prison.

There would be a very clean federal prison cell waiting for you in Rochester, MN.

Tom Daschle said Monday that he's "deeply embarrassed and disappointed"So why isn't he deeply indicted and incarcerated?

Let him rot in Federal prison.
Instead, he gets to rot the Department of Health and Human Services with socialized medicine.....

I wonder how long it would have taken him to finally discover and fix his “errors” if he hadn’t been appointed to the cabinet?

Excellent question and the answer is.....NEVER!
To: Southside_Chicago_Republican
Exactly. These “mistakes” only come out once the nomination is given. There are thousands of people who are not nominated. Would love to see their taxes.

The amount of money he owes lets me wonder that this bast@rd was never going to pay his taxes. What has GW done to let these creeps get away with this so long?

This guy had no intention of ever paying his taxes had he not been selected for a cabinet post. What would happen to me if I had owed $120,000.00 in back taxes?

Oh wow, that means that it is okay, he has apologized. That means that all is forgiven for being a corrupt, devious crook. Also means that he can now take the cabinet post he was offered.
How much do you want to bet that he would never have paid the taxes if he had not be offered the cabinet post. /sarc

Yes!....I thought Joe Biden said it was patriotic to pay higher taxes never mind not paying them at all!
To: Red in Blue PA
The Obama campaign was more interested in background checks on Joe The Plumber than the Obama administration is interested in background checks of those nominated for the cabinet.

I guess paying your taxes or higher taxes is just for us slobs in the trenches......
To: AngelesCrestHighway
It’s not going to matter whether Daschle gets confirmed or not, because Obama has already given Daschle another title, in addition to the Secretary of Health and Safety, another job title that will not require Senate approval.I forget what the title is, but it amounts to a job to push socialized medicine down our throats, and he gave Daschle an office in the West Wing.
That’s actually the interesting part. All of the real workers in the Obama administration will be in the west wing, telling Obama what to say and do, not across the street.
