Geithner’s an issue

Here is a guy who was less than truthful about paying his US income taxes, and yet he is still being considered for a cabinet post. His cabinet post oversees the IRS of which he evaded paying his full share of income taxes. However, he took care of the problem when he was nominated for the cabinet post in the Obama administration. Have we sold our soul?

Regardless of what party is in office this guy should not be allowed to be considered for the post. Is this the message we want to send to the rest of the citizens of the US? We have enough folks trying to worm there way through the system. This guy has a moral obligation to withdraw his name from consideration for the sake of his own children if he has any. The message he sends is it is OK to break the law until you get a cabinet post nomination and then everything is alright if you pay up. If you get a speeding ticket and you don't show to face the judge then you will be arrested the next time you get a ticket.

I am totally in favor of having someone who is against paying federal income taxes in charge of the IRS. I would be in favor of someone opposed to the UN represent us in the UN. I would prefer someone who is against invading counties in charge of our military, etc. Do you get my drift.

Hey buddy, I am with you on your drift. Guess it pays to be less than honest more so today than in the old days. Least we forget LBJ! Lord rest his soul.
