    Daschel Withdraws his Nomination

    Just heard Daschel has withdrawn his nomination....So much for an open, honest, transparent government promised by Obama. It looks as if his administration will be characterized by the rule of exceptions; just ignore impropriety by granting waivers...... Just a snippet of what is to come in the four years provided we survive that long which is turning out to be another circus....send in the clowns........

    Well....in one sense it has been open, atleast we know.....wonder how many others are in, that have done that and worse? What's upsetting is how Obama and others seem to think it's no big deal......while citizens are ran through the ringer for less. It's been a real eye-opener on just how serious certain things are depending on if you're rich, a government official or an illegal alien.....vs the average law abiding citizen. Worlds apart for sure.

    I can believe this.

    I've always had a good feeling about Daschel, even back when he ran or considrered running against Bush. I was actually supprised to hear he owed back taxes. Really seemed out of character for him.

    He did the right thing for the nation by withdrawing. That takes more guts than going to a hearing and making excuses for your bad behavior.

    Sec. of Treasury... Cough...Cough Like Coto

    It is good to hear he stepped away from the position and now we need Mr Geitner to do the same thing........

    The values of the far left have long been in serious doubt by me and this
    does not give me any encouragement.
    I'm old with many opinions few solutions.

    The last count I had was 3 tax cheats and 1 nominee under federal investigation. Change we can believe in, he is making Boooosh look good, and that is not an easy task.

    Seems as if every (atleast those being nominated for positions in the Obama administration) politician has an illegal invader nanny in their kitchen and prone to making "mistakes" when it comes to paying their taxes.

    And we wonder why we are in this mess....
