You’d think with all the hot and cold running lawyers the former Senate Majority Leader has spent time with there’d have been at least one good tax-advisory lawyer.
P.S. Or, as Ray Lehmann suggests, this could be a brilliant Obama scheme to balance the federal budget by exposing major tax scofflaws through the nomination process.

Future talking points: Daschle was the victim of a vast right wing conspiracy and theRepublican Attack Machine. It was an honest mistake. Why are right-wing members of the Senate demonizing a career-public servant with these silly allegations? Hopefully this is a catalyst igniting IRS-colonoscopies for all five hundred thirty five members.
I suggest that the Senate adopt a rule to put taxes off the the table if a desingee squares up his taxes prior to his hearings.
We are aware of foul-mouthed politicians working up public pasions. Joe Biden (about taxes) gave us Janet Reno. Newt Gingrish used the technique to give us the disasterous “Contract with America” congress.
