Breaking: Clinton Being Recalled - Third Cousin Twice Removed Owes $500 In Back Taxes
This is getting nuts, ladies and gentlemen. Solis is being held up because her husband has had a 16-year tax lien on his business?

SILLY SEASON, Mr. Obama. Fight for this one!

13. The business was a sole proprietorship
Solis would have no reason to know about these tax liens.

And from what I can see, they are about underpayment of tax, not avoidance of the tax altogether.

15. She needs to talk with Geraldine Ferraro
Having a deadbeat husband is not good PR and does not bode well for a future in politics.

4. The McCains almost lost a home due to backtaxes.
But nobody raised much of a stink about that, even though it was revealed during the election season.

7. I guess its okay
if you only lose 1 of 7 homes. That's only about 15% of your homes. If you only own one, and lose that one, you have lost 100% of your homes. Disgraceful.

5. Better check on these nominees status
with registering their pets. I think the Repukes have overlooked the possibility that their dog or cat may not be properly registered. Call your local dinosaur and demand investigations. :banghead:

And that's what the silly season is all about.

I guess that means I can't be in Obama's cabinet!

17. Not the Clinton part, but the Solis part is.

It's sad that in these times, what otherwise would be easily recognized as sarcasm has to be checked. :(
