On taxes - Do as we (Congress) say, not as we do.

This a quick follow on to our post about the hypocrisy of Congress when it comes to energy policy. This post talks about the hypocrisy of Congress when it comes to Taxes.

As we pointed out in a previous post, Charles Rangel is a Congressman from Harlem. He heads the Ways and Means committee. This committee writes all of the tax legislation that craps on your life on a daily basis.

Ol Charlie has tax problems. He did not pay taxes on rental property he owns in the Dominican Republic. At various times he blamed his memory, his accountant, and said the tax code (that he wrote) was 'too complicated'. As Jay Leno said "If it is too complicated for Rangel, how screwed are WE?'

Any way - a guy named Jason Mattera confronted Rangel about this. In a video taped exchange Jason pressed Rangel on a number is issues, including why he failed to pay his taxes. Rangel's response:

Why don't you mind your God Damned business

Awesome. Basically, he told all of us to mind our own business.

New Flash Charles, you ass-clown. Your screwing around with the tax code - and your failure to live up to it -- IS OUR GOD DAMNED BUSINESS.

Always remember - Liberals never want to live in the world that they want to create for you.
