Charlie Rangel's Financial and Tax Scandals Somewhat obscured by the controversy surrounding Obamacare is another scandal that is bubbling up in the House of Representatives that threatens to devour the powerful Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, Charlie Rangel. It seems that Rep. Charlie Rangel, whose Ways and Means Committee writes all tax law in the United States, is himself a tax cheat. The Washington Examiner's Byron York takes up the narrative. "Last week, we learned that Rangel filed a grossly misleading financial disclosure report for 2007 -- failing to report at least half a million dollars in assets. "It turns out Rangel had a credit union account worth at least $250,000 and maybe as much as $500,000 -- and didn't report it. He had investment accounts worth about the same, which he also didn't report. Ditto for three pieces of property in New Jersey. "Beyond that, we've learned that Rangel has failed to report assets totaling more than $1 million on legally required financial disclosure forms going back to at least 2001. "The news comes on top of revelations last year that Rangel didn't report -- and didn't pay taxes on -- income from a villa in the Caribbean. In that matter, the Internal Revenue Service gave him sweetheart treatment; Rangel paid about $10,000 in back taxes but was not required to pay any penalty or interest." So far calls to force Chairman Charlie Rangel to step down have fallen upon deaf ears. In the meantime House Republicans are having a little fun introducing HR 735 or the Rangel Rule Bill. The Rangel Rule bill would grant all tax payers the same courtesy that the IRS has given Chairman Charlie Rangel. That is to say, if one is caught cheating on one's taxes, one will just be obliged to pay what ones owes and all interest and penalties will be waived. HR 735 has no chance of passing, but passage is not that point. The point that there is one rule for powerful, liberal Democrat House Committee Chairmen and one for the rest of us is the point. The Gingrich Revolution of 1994 had several causes. One of them was a failed attempt to nationalize the country's health care system. That seems to be playing out again on steroids in 2009. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2129267/charlie_rangels_financial_and_tax_scandals.html
Timothy Geithner's Tax Problems At a time when the nation needs a reliable, respected voice on financial issues at the Treasury Department, is an admitted tax cheat the best we can do [front page, Jan. 14]? Over several years, Treasury secretary nominee Timothy F. Geithner failed to pay Social Security taxes, even though he was advised by his employer to do so, signed an agreement indicating that he understood that such payments were his responsibility and received extra pay from his employer specifically for that purpose. Mr. Geithner "came clean" only when he was caught, first by an IRS audit that found he owed Social Security taxes for 2003 and 2004 and then when additional tax liabilities for 2001 and 2002 were discovered after his nomination. He has been praised for repaying these additional taxes for the earlier years, which apparently may not have been required under a statute of limitations, but this raises another question: Why didn't he voluntarily correct his 2001 and 2002 taxes once he found out that he had made the same error in 2003 and 2004? http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/18/AR2009011802070.html
I will have to correct myself. It's not 1 every few months.

Thanks. Your posts made me smile and the one below in particular. It reminded me of the story I read in the Albuquerque newspaper around 1965 about a family that was moving to Salt Lake City. It said: "The family is moving to Utah because the father is a moron [sic]." You definitely can't make this stuff up!
If lickbushnut had an integrity at all... he would shut up... after this... Clintion and Obama. And talk about gay affairs and regular affairs... People in white houses should not throw stones.
Update on the culture of hate. AKA the nutgagging neo-cunt population of modern day Sodom and Gomorrah. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU WORSHIP SATAN SATAN WORSHIP RESULTS IN SICK PERVERTED TWISTED MINDS THAT YOUR REPUBLICON NEO-CUNT LEADERS CAN THEN POUR THE DEVILS KOOL-AID INTO http://abcnews.go.com/Health/MindMo...inity-baptist-church-deacon/story?id=10806348 THIS IS A VERY PROPER EXAMPLE OF HOW AND WHY THESE HOMOSEXUAL FILTH WALLOW IN THEIR CULTURE OF HATE. HATE FOR THEIR FELLOW MAN AND HATE FOR ALL OF GOD'S CREATIONS. Absolutely correct. That is why God is about to DEVASTATE the states that constitute modern day Sodom and Gomorrah CENTER OF NEO-CUNT SATANISM. IT HAS JUST BEGAN. Makes for good TV, that's for sure. DRILL BABY DRILL. RIGHT UP YOUR GOD-DAMNED ASS. NOW LET'S LIGHT UP THAT OIL ON FIRE. LOL
lol. Amusing little imbecile. Trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill. And that's all you people have. You should conjure up a new Psalm in the new "edited for accuracy" neo-cunt Bible that will give you more intelligence.
What is the connection between this: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2832588#post2832588 And the neo-cunt members of the southern baptist cult raping boys and girls? http://www.vbs.tv/blog/tea-party-loon-charles-dyer-arrested-on-child-rape-charges
You got it. All the fucking nut gaggers on ET are cult members. Hence the smug moral superiority inherent in their lunatic drivel posted on ET devoid of any logical foundation and the "5 stars" from their demented cult brethren. That is why NOT A SINGLE ONE of these filth are able to refute any of the questions posed to them earlier on this thread. These SHIT are conditioned to play follow-the-leader That is why they will reflexively vote up anything posted by "one of their own". Regardless of content. Exactly the same reason why they will vote crooks, charlatans, pedophiles and closet homosexuals into political office. As long as they think you are part of the cult, they will vote for you. Now do y'all get it? Why these bastards are more dangerous than the Al Quadea they created? Anyone of their Crazed Satanic leaders could easily nuke the entire the world and they would be ok with it. These people are conditioned from child-hood by repeated beatings and anal rape to grow up to hate the world. And equally conditioned to believe and follow hate-based political drivel based on their FAITH. That is why the illogical ranting and lunatic ravings of people like glen beck drives them to post insane inanity on the intenets such as advocating killing a democratically elected president. That is why their demented posts are illogical and devoid of any intellectual rigor. But all the demented posts will get 5 stars from their cult brothers!!! lol
Do you want to inflict personal pain on these cult members? Simple vote down their threads. These demented shit have a physiological connection with their posts. Their posts are devoid of any intellectual rigor or logic and made on pure "FAITH". These people are physically "connected" to their posts. That is why when you put them down, they think you've assaulted their manhood like their daddy or "uncle" did them when they were little boys. By voting down their threads, you've voted down their self-worth and they "feel" it as a direct assault on their physical self. You think I'm kidding? Try it and watch them scream. These bastards are sick like that.
