Taxes are the New Career Killer

Forget Satan Cults, teenage affairs, or blow jobs in the Oval Office...taxes are the career manglers. The big victim of the day is Tom Daschle. Tax issues reared its ugly on head on poor Tom. He's dealing with problems over back taxes and potential conflicts of interest.


He should've known this was an issue, however it's possible he lost track. But that overview forced him to withdraw his nomination to be President Barack Obama's Health and Human Services secretary.

Also, Nancy Killefer withdrew her candidacy to be the first chief performance officer for the federal government because of tax stuff. Folks, please get your tax stuff in order. Use Turbo Tax or the free services in the library or something. A preventable matters such as this should not cost you everything you've worked hard for, so handle your business. This is a big blow to the O Administration, however they will bounce back.

I think John Edwards should be forgiven and resurrected... health care and poverty were his passions...
