So, Can We Question Their Patriotism Now?

We know from the libs and the media that it was un-American to question Democrats for slandering the troops, bashing the troops, mocking the troops, and constantly repeating the “war is lost.”

Thankfully, Joe Biden set us straight on what patriotism was all about:

Noting that wealthier Americans would indeed pay more taxes, Biden said: “It’s time to be patriotic… Time to jump in, time to be part of the deal, time to help get America out of the rut.”

But, what if democrats don’t pay taxes?…
Are they being unpatriotic?

First, it was Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner who didn’t pay taxes and lied about it.

Then it was Health and Human Services nominee Tom Daschle who ran into a little glitch when it was discovered he didn’t pay taxes either.
Hey… nobody’s perfect!

Now, it’s first chief performance officer nominee Nancy Killefer, who failed for a year and a half to pay employment taxes on household help.
She withdrew her candidacy today.

So, Can we question their patriotism yet?

Daschle drives an old jalopy around Washington; why? Because a penny saved is a penny earned.
Too much!

UPDATE: Legal Insurrection discovered Daschle’s previous tax dodge.
