Da Big Man Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 A new Prez* surrounded by criminals. Yes we did!!
Johnny Coli Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Really. Exactly how much time did people spend (on both sides of the aisle) giving McCain shiiitt after Troopergate? Answer: a lot. The glaring difference being that every one of Obama's nominees has admitted they made the errors, apologized for the errors, corrected the errors, and also willfully withdrew. In no way can anyone say that Palin has shown any remorse or regret, has never apologized for any of the countless real scandals (and outright lies) she has been the center of, and has in fact blamed everyone (including McCain's people) for getting panned.
Bill from NYC Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Agreed. I always thought people getting worked up over FICA taxes on the nanny was pretty stupid. Why? Aren't most of these nannies illegal aliens who work much cheaper? My point is that these people break laws, cheat the government, and then want to represent us.
GG Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Why? Aren't most of these nannies illegal aliens who work much cheaper? No, they're not. Unless you want to throw all immigrants into the illegal category.

The old Steve Martin bit abiut how to rob a bank: 1. Rob a bank 2. When the police catch you, say "I forgot robbing a bank was against the law."
ExiledInIllinois Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Agreed. I always thought people getting worked up over FICA taxes on the nanny was pretty stupid. Of course if you are intentionally hiding hundreds of thousands in income from the IRS like Rangle or attempting to defraud the IRS out of more money than most Americans make in 3 years, like Daschle, you belong behind bars. A tax bill of $130,000 means unreported income of what, $600,000?? 700,000?? I totally agree.
ExiledInIllinois Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 A new Prez* surrounded by criminals. Yes we did!! Meet the new boss same as the old boss. One big difference... With Obama, this stuff is easier to sort out and vaccinate against than with the old boss and the private sector interwrappings.
