More "do as I say, not as I do" from the Dems
With the anticipated tax increases just around the corner now that Democrats control Congress and the White House, it should baffle me that two Cabinet-nominee Democrats have not bothered to pay nearly $150k in taxes between them. And Caroline Kennedy, Hillary's one-time replacement in the Senate, had to withdraw her name, reportedly due to tax issues. I *should* be baffled, but I'm not. The rules don't apply to the Democratic privileged class in a classic double-standard. Can you imagine the outrage if W. had nominated a Republican who owed $100k in back taxes because he didn't claim the lobbyist-provided limo and driver on his taxes?
