This is news?
Truth Detector said:Because you say so; but then, your notion of Secretary of Treasury would be someone who believes in the naive and foolish politics Obama represents thinking that a Government can BORROW go deep into DEBT and PRINT MONEY to get us out of a recession.
So basically your opposition to Geithner has nothing to do with his taxes, and everything to do with his political ideology (which really isn't particularly left-wing). Your intellectual dishonesty is duly noted.
I'm curious, what qualifications does Steve Forbes possess to run the Treasury Department?
REPLACING DASCHLE?: Potential replacements for Daschle include former Vermont Gov. and DNC Chair Howard Dean, Tennessee Gov. Phil Bredesen, Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, former Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber and Rep. Jim Cooper (D-Tenn.).
POLITICO 44: The Obama Presidency. Minute by Minute
WASHINGTON - “I screwed up,” President Barack Obama told NBC’s Brian Williams Tuesday in the wake of his nominee to be secretary of health and human services, Tom Daschle, withdrawing his name from consideration.
Daschle dropped out after acknowledging that he had belatedly paid more than $128,000 in taxes owed to the federal government.
“Today was an embarrassment for us,” Obama said. He said he was “angry,” “disappointed” and “frustrated with myself” over the Daschle episode.

I love a person who can admit mistakes. Wow. :wow: I am utterly impressed. This is change I can believe in.
It would be nice to have Howard Dean in a position of responsibility.
It would be nice to have Howard Dean behind bars. :mrgreen:It would be nice to have Howard Dean in a position of responsibility. I wondered how long it would take Daschle to get under the bus. It's one thing to overlook a tax payment, but this guy seems to be in the pocket of some big corporate interests.
The democRATic party is a gigantic magnet for inocent little criminal types. Hillary never participated in world banks colapsing in the 80s. Bill didn`t rape any women. Janet Rino didn`t order the slaughter of women and children at Waco. Liberals have perfected the inocent whine . It works more often than not for them. Blagoijovich didn`t get it right though but he was "inocent". Oh and Bill ,"didn`t have sex with that woman".
But you will forgive a president who mobilized the military under false pretenses, then allowed 4000 of our men and women in uniform to die, thousands more become injured physically and mentally. Yeh, you have quite a set of morals there.

Not to mention the civilians whose lives have been affected both here and abroad.
