A mere $128,000

It’s not just that former Sen. Tom Daschle failed to pay $128,000 in income taxes, it’s that he made enough money to owe at least $128,000 in income taxes.

After all, Daschle has been appointed to head the Department of Health and Human Services, which is the government agency most concerned with the needs of poor and working class people.

Wouldn’t it be refreshing if Obama appointed somebody who thought $128,000 was a lot of money?
