Tim Geithner, US Treasury Secretary and head of the IRS was sent continual reminders to pay his taxes but refused until he was nominated for Treasury Secretary.
Congressman Charlie Rangel, Chairman of House Way and Means Committee, didn't pay income taxes for several years on a rental property.
Tom Daschle, former US Senator, senate leader, and nominee for Secretary of Health and Human Services evaded paying over $175,000 in taxes.
These were not "honest mistakes," but instead purposeful evasions of taxes by powerful Democrats who thought they could get away with it. It's no wonder Democrat politicians have no problem supporting raising taxes on the rest of us. No matter the tax rate, they just pick and chose which taxes they want to pay.
The Obama Administration continues to be tainted by scandals.
