#12 – Mom, don’t be surprised if The Snobs didn’t pay. After all, the DNCMSM didn’t exactly vet their candidate very well, now did they?

Does she profit from the business? of course, she is his wife. Therefore, she is as libel as he is.
This whole income tax thing is getting out of hand.
Question – Do we know is the Obama family has paid their taxes????

This is not incompetence, this is arrogance. The arrogance to believe that they are above their fellow citizens, not subject to the usual rules of behavior. This arrogance comes from the top, Obama, and permeates the ranks of his organization, all the way to his most die-hard supporters. Arrogance hiding ignorance.

It’s almost as if tax evasion is a resume enhancement for the purposes of thumbing one’s nose at us law-abiding suckers. Good grief.

Obama is being raked over the coals because a large number of his nominees are tax-dodging criminals. Any remotely competent administration would then double, triple and quadruple-check any subsequent nominees for tax evasion.

So either
A) Obama’s administration is blatantly incompetent,
B) Obama can’t FIND any Democrats to nominate who don’t cheat on their taxes because there is no such thing, or
C) Both.

Pattern?, pattern? GPW says the number of Democrat’s with tax issues is getting to be a pattern. More like an epidemic. Or more to the point….how bout business as usual. Leona Helmsley Democrats is so to the point and covers it in 3 words! Could the media tell us…did Obama (D)have a transition team, with people responsible for vetting or did the Obama(D) admin just have people milling around looking good for the cameras.

Having worked most of my life in the private sector, when there are tax liens against your business, you can expect you bank accounts to be attached fairly regularly if you don’t pay up. There is no way he didn’t know about these liens.

Supposedly he didn’t know he had tax liens against his business. I assume he would’ve paid them with some of that hundreds of thousands of dollars he had in the bank per the disclosure paperwork.

What gets me is there was 15 liens. Not one, not even two, but 15 spread out over 16 years and he didn’t know about any of them? I do find that a bit unbelievable.

Watching the double standard of the media regarding this tax circus is even better than learning of tax-evading Democrats (yeah, they care so much about our country). Had these nominees been appointed by Bush, the media would be barking corruption, hypocrites, and impeachment. But NEVER toward “The One.” They just want us to believe he made an honest mistake and that we should overlook it. Makes me wonder if anyone in the media elite even pays their own taxes. They’re always barking for us average joe’s to pay more, probably to make up for the “fair share” they don’t pay.
