It is good that Mr. Daschle had the sense to withdraw his nomination as HHS secretary. He was foolish to pursue the job under the cloud of being a tax cheat. I see that Nancy Killefer, nominated by President Barack Hussein Obama to be the federal government’s first chief performance officer also has withdrawn her nomination due to tax payment problems.
What is with these major public leaders and their ability to pay their taxes. Have they ever heard of H&R Block? Even most of the computerized tax programs would have found Mr. Daschle’s limo driver problem. These people are either idiots or they are cheats.
MR. PRESIDENT – GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER AND DO A PROPER JOB OF VETTING YOUR NOMINEES AND WHEN YOU FIND A PROBLEM LIKE THIS – DROP THEM LIKE A HOT POTATO!
BHO, now is beginning to look like a fool with three tax evaders as nominees. I think that his promise for a change is being replaced by a promise of corruption and fools.
I guess this only holds when you are actually in office. Once you are in the private sector, taking money from corporations in excess of $1M per year, and being chauffeured around DC it no longer applies.
“Make no mistake, tax cheaters cheat us all, and the IRS should enforce our laws to the letter. ” Sen. Tom Daschle, Congressional Record, May 7, 1998, p. S4507.
Tim Daschle should remove his name from consideration as the HHS Secretary. He is an embarrassment to politicians, private citizens, and President Barack Hussein Obama.
This is simply another testimony to the fact that BHO is simply the most inexperienced President ever and is being controlled by forces that may not have the best interest of the country.
There has been quite a bit of complaining that the current stimulus bill that was just passed by the House and is going to Senate is filled with pork and special spending projects. This is a silly complaint – of course it is!
The bill is a spending bill. It should be loaded to the gills with pork. That is what spending bills do – they spend money. In fact, it should have so much pork in it that a reasonably religious person of Jewish descent should run for the hills!
Of course, it shouldn’t have silly things in it like contraceptives. That does nothing for the economy despite the silliness of Ms. Pelosi. But it should be filled with pet projects from every mayor and county commissioner in the land. If the mayor of a 20-30,000 citizen city CAN’T get a million or two out of this bill – they should be run out of town! In case there are any mayors or governors out there that can’t figure out what to ask for that they can spend money on RIGHT NOW then I made a list of projects that they should consider.
The overall goals for the pork should be to get people working, spending money, and kickstart the economy. We know that housing is hurting. Housing has a couple of different contributors to the economy but mostly it is the sale of the raw materials and the employment of the laborers. Let’s get them all going again. Also, since we want to make ourselves as efficient as possible, lets try to do things that will help the environment a bit as well. Finally, in the cases where we have to buy some products, lets try to keep them mostly made in the good old USA.
This bill should be absolutely packed with new bridges, roads, baseball parks, swimming pools and public gymnasiums. Some of these new bridges and roads may not be able to be “shovel ready” so let’s expand the list a bit. Many of these things that I list will take labor to install (which is a good thing), labor to manufacture and ship (more good) and raise everyone’s spirits a bit as well.
There should be no way we should need to spend money on things like contraceptives. The list is too easy to generate on things that would improve infrastructure, make the world a bit nicer, use materials that are produced in the US and employ manual laborers to install.
I am sure that I missed things but literally this list took only 5 minutes of thought to create and I probably spent a couple hundred billion dollars and employed between 50,000 and 100,000 people for at least 1 year. This doesn’t include any big projects like roads and bridges that are already able to be funded but were trying to find the funds. It also doesn’t factor in any multiplier effect that will occur by the spending of this money.
If you agree that this list is on the right track – send it to you Senator and your Congressman. While you are at it, send the list to your Mayor and Governor.
There seems to be a general trend lately that Barack Hussein Obama (BHO) is not really running things in the current administration. Let’s point out a few examples:
Of course, as I say in my About message above, I may be wrong. But that would mean that BHO is simply naive and foolish in his selections. I prefer to believe that BHO does have the wisdom to do the job. Even though this quote by Robert Gibbs, the press secretary, gives me pause: “The president believes that nobody is perfect, but that nobody is trying to hide anything.” While the former is true, I really have a hard time fathoming that anyone over the age of 14 believes the latter – didn’t the guy ever date?
This is just too funny not to share and make sure more people see this.
I am done with this topic for now but I reserve the right to rant more on it someday.
