Is it because he’s…a Tax Cheat?

Ron Kirk President Obama’s nominee as U.S. Trade Representative


President Barack Hussein Obama enjoys comparing himself with historical presidents and their administrations. He often makes some sort of claim that his administration is the first or the most of any administration in American history.

But oops those pesky taxes again, and don’t be hatin’! You just wish you could cheat on your taxes and be nominated for some prestigious job instead of going to jail like the regular tax frauds.

Ron Kirk has just got it like that you’ all. Kirk owes an estimated $10,000 dollars in back taxes.

According to STEPHEN OHLEMACHER and DAVE ESPO of the Associated Press, […] the taxes arise from Kirk's handling of speaking fees he donated to a scholarship fund that he set up at his alma mater, and for his deduction of the full cost of season tickets to the Dallas Mavericks professional basketball team.

Kirk also agreed to make changes in his accounting of charitable deductions, including reducing the claimed value of a donated television from $3,000 to $1,500. (see story)

Uh that’s tax fraud, I’m I the only one seeing this? But after sailing through President Obama’s top notch highly rigorous vetting process the Senate Finance Committee doesn’t think that a little tax indiscretion will stop Obama’s pick for Trade Representative. Open and accepted corruption this maybe a first for any U.S. administration!
Committee chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.) issued a statement expressing support for Kirk, calling him “the right person for this job and I will work to move his nomination quickly.” --KENNETH P. VOGEL, Politico (see story)
What is this the 4th tax evader to be nominated to the Obama administration? That has got to be some kind of record!

A third of the Senate voted against Tim Geithner's confirmation as treasury secretary after it was disclosed that he had to pay more than $34,000 in back taxes and interest on income he made while working for the International Monetary Fund. (He was confirmed anyway)

Former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle then withdrew as a nominee to become Health and Human Services after it was disclosed that he failed to pay $128,000 in taxes. Nancy Killefer, Obama's pick for chief performance officer, also bowed out amid tax problems.

This has got to be the world’s record for the absolute worst vetting process of any administration in the history of the Presidency or this has got to be the most corrupt start any President has ever had selecting a cabinet in the entire history of the United States of America! Old honest Abe must be turning in his grave!

The White House is confident that Kirk will be confirmed by the Senate. That’s right, let’s see, a Democrat in the White House and a Democrat controlled Congress, and yes I’ll say that the White House’s confidence is well placed.

When Senator Obama promised to fundamentally change America did you have any idea that he meant changing America from a Country of honestly and integrity into a Country of tax cheaters and liars all on his cabinet?

One should ask, “Why does this President continue to surround himself with William Ayers, Jeremiah Wrights and Tony Rezkos types. We should have seen this lack of character flaw of Obama’s. Before the election, Hillary Clinton tried to warn us but we didn’t listen.

With the nomination of Kirk, President Obama has established his administration as the Anti-Ethics Administration. Obama is well on his way of having the worst ethically run presidential administration in American history.

Are you regretting your vote yet? You will!
