Daschle is expected to answer questions from the panel later in the day in a closed session.

Why can't the rest of hear his excuses?! I'm sure they are really going to grill him hard. /s

Can't you just hear them laughing themselves silly about it all? Hey, we screwed them again...haaa haaaa haaaa.

“What would happen to me if I had owed $120,000.00 in back taxes?”

The IRS would put a lien on your house (if you own one), confiscate your cars and make your life a living hell.

I noticed Dorkle is getting the C. Rangel Blue light special. The IRS must waive all penalties incurred by prominent Democrats.

Max Baucus, you ignorant slut.

If Daschle is the best you can find this country is in a hell of a mess. He is a liar, a tax cheat and has so many conflicts of interest (as does his lobbyist wife) that it is sickening. And you think this is who we ‘need’ to ‘fix’ health-care?!

Hi Doc...

This is such a crock.

On Laura's radio show today she suggested we just write a note to the IRS instead of paying our taxes, since it is apparently ok to NOT PAY your taxes...nothing worth paying attention to, simply oversights, etc.

Forget the taxes Tommy, Of course you are anxious to be in the cabinet you have been lobbying for the people you will be dealing with for the last few years, and as head of the Cabinet you can really make it pay off for them.

You friggin crook.

Have we hit the point where we can ask the question, “Is there anybody in the Obama Cabinet who HAS paid their taxes?”

YES! How many of them just haven't been caught yet?!

I remember when a nanny problem would do them in. Now, you can have a nanny problem and be a tax cheat! And Obama claimed he was going to be different. But, I forgot that was just campaign promises he never meant to keep in the first place.

"Tom Daschle said Monday that he's "deeply embarrassed and disappointed"

Dascle said that?
How about being honest and saying "I am a thief, I am a crook, I am not worthy of any new post because I cannot be trusted with my finances."

"deeply embarrassed and disappointed" is what HIS parents and Hussein should say about him and then give him a swift kick in the butt.

Not only that, where are the penalties?

Us ordinary people would have penalties that would double the amount at least.

The IRS has a formal policy of treating VIPs with kid gloves. They don’t want them testifying about IRS heavy hands. We have an IRS agent friend who explained it too us..particularily minority Pols and VIPS.

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.

Yup.

Well except for Pelosi, his main man.

I wish I was in the string business, all that jerking on his strings by the Dixie Mafia (ex Clinton members of the ObamaMob) and the Daley Political/Crime Mob Machine guys would make me a pile of money replacing the broken strings!
