Barack Obama has announced that the withdrawal of Daschle and Killefer
from
consideration doesn't worry him one bit...

"I have already spoken to both Willie Nelson and Wesley Snipes, and both
ready
to step in, step up and serve the nation...," the President said a press
conference.

HTH,

...I suppose the US taxpayer ought to be glad that Al Capone is dead...

I am glad that both are out of the picture. Obama is finding(and this is a
good thing) that the concept of a better type of government is a high moral
bar, and that folks DO expect him to clear it. Actually, my real issue with
Daschle wasn't the tax thing(although that reeks of stupid), but the idea
that he got bucks for consultation work with the healthcare industry. I
really don't want to see the reform of the US healthcare system from someone
partially in the pocket of one side or the other.
You start to get to wondering, though,does anyone down there pay their
freaking taxes??
