Scoreboard

St. Hoppen Change appointments:

Treasury Secretary, Tim Geithner: Tax evader.

Commerce Secretary, Bill Richardson (withdrawn): Pay to play.

Chief Federal Efficiency Expert, Nancy Killifer: Tax evader (the dreaded nanny tax)

Secretary of State: Hillary Clinton: "We'll tell you what you need to know about Bill's Arab loot.  If you don't like it I'll cry and stamp my foot. "

Disclaimer for the TEs: They all claim they didn't know they were supposed to pay taxes. And they all did, in fact, cough  up, just as soon as they got caught.

Disclaimer for Richardson: "Who? Me?"

To be, with  only the slimmest doubt, continued.

The founding fathers, in their wisdom, devised a method by which our republic can take 100 of its most prominent numbskulls and keep them out of the private sector where they might do actual harm.
