What's your take on this guy. I'm curious what the left has for excuses this time.

considering those red rimmed glasses, I'd say hes just dumb.

Hahah.... ditto.

These guys just have accountants and I'm sure some people would be surprised at how much of invalids our elected politicians are. Take away their assistants, interns and pages and you'd probably find many balled up in a corner - scared and alone.

Spence will find a way to make red rimmed glasses the latest in high fashion.

They'd make a redneck look like a MENSES member.

If they're too stupid or inept to handle their own tax affairs PROPERLY and CORRECTLY, they're definitely too stupid AND inept to handle any position of power!

Just remember, if any of US had the "misfortune" to "inadvertently" forget to properly pay our taxes, or correct our tax issues, do you think for a second that WE'D be given even 1/100th the amount of consideration from the IRS and the nation that these clowns got?
HELL NO! We'd be making our plea either from prison or the poor house, no excuse!

He made just under a million a year as a consultant for one company. Cheats on his taxes and then blames the rich for not paying there share. Makes me sick.

Its because the IRS, for a long time, has its hands full auditing people with incomes $25,000 or less as opposed to those with incomes $100,000+ as was the case in 1999. Enforcement budgets hace been slashed. Only recently, as in the past few years, have the IRS stepped up (modest) visibility.

Audit rates are even uglier for small business. Companies reporting $100 million or more in assets saw audits rates fall 30%, its approaches %40 when we talk about companies with $250 million or more. Small business (5 million in assets or less) on the other hand, saw a 40% increase in audit rates from 2005 to 07. How do we know the rich are paying their taxes if no one is checking?

Daschel drops out. Good. So should have Geitner.

The old addage, dishonest in small things, dishonest in big things applies imho.

Well he's no dummy. That answers the question.Now he can keep collecting millions in funny money.

Ya well, we all learned a good lesson here, make sure as we all get cars from our friends :rolleyes:, we report it as income. :hihi:

better watch out for those plug swaps

better watch out for those plug swaps

LOL, we end up in jail over an even exchange but when it comes to them, "nobody talks, everybody walks."

Can't understand how these so called genius know how to subtract but can't add. :huh:

Dashed :nopain:

Dashed :nopain:

Now whata we do?
Wasn't he and Geitner coined as the only ones that could do the job. :huh:
