Example Goes From Good to Bad

By Al Kamen

Were those family-friendly tax cuts too big? On Oct. 4, as the campaign entered the home stretch, President Bush stopped in Des Moines to sign his most recent tax-cut bill and to single out Mike and Sharla Hintz, a couple from Clive, Iowa, he said benefited from his tax plan.

Last year, he said, they saved about $2,800 on their income taxes because of the administration's tax cuts. They used the money for their family, Bush said, making "home repairs and improvements."

"It's a special day for Mike and Sharla," the president said, "their 13th wedding anniversary. Theirs is a typical story. See, last year they received a child-tax-credit check for $1,600 for their four children. They took the family on a vacation to Minnesota. Next year when you get your check, you may want to come to Texas."

Unfortunately, Mike, a First Assembly of God youth pastor, might not be making the trip next year. Seems he was arrested this week and charged with sexual exploitation of a child, according to Iowa news reports.

Police said that last spring, Hintz began a relationship with a 17-year-old girl who was a member of the church's youth group, according to KCCI-TV. The contact allegedly occurred at the girl's home and during a mission trip to India.

Hintz, through his lawyer, denied the allegations. The church fired Hintz on Oct. 30

4. LOL "Sharla".

The media loves to make fun of black names like "Starkeisha" and "Aprecianté", but if they wanted, they could have a field day with quasi-white trash names like "Sharla". I think "Latifah" sounds infinitely more beautiful...
