I am not a crook (part 2)

Quoth the New York Times this morning:

WASHINGTON — President Obama’s pick for health and human services secretary, Tom Daschle, failed to pay more than $128,000 in taxes, partly for free use of a car and driver that had been provided to him by a prominent businessman and Democratic fund-raiser, administration officials said Friday.

By the time our new cabinet secretaries have all paid their back taxes--and penalities, one would hope!--we will have made a dent on paying for the bailout bill. Blue skies! -- Dan Ford
