"Men give me some credit for genius. All the genius I have lies in this: When I have a subject in hand, I study it profoundly. Day and night it is before me. I explore it in all its bearings. My mind becomes pervaded with it. Then the effort which I make, the people are pleased to call the fruit of genius. It is the fruit of labor and thought." - Alexander Hamilton

Paying Taxes it is Patriotic unless. . .

You are a democrat who is going to be Treasury sectary. Timothy Geithner who, showed up with his Breil watches on, is the nominee for Treasury secretary failed to pay thousands and thousands of dollars in taxes. This occurred even after he was warned to pay taxes.

Now we were told it is, "Patriotic to pay taxes". If this is the case why are we allowing a non-patriotic person to hold a cabinet position.

Now we are told this is an honest mistake. I just wonder how so. Here are the choices:

1. He has an incompetant tax person who is clearly a cheat and a thief. If that is the case he should not be Treasury Secretary because he is unable to judge the character of people around him.

2. He did his own taxes on Turbo Tax. The problem here is that it is almost impossible to change numbers on and do overrides. However, you can. Therefore, he deliberate cheated and should be in jail.

3. He did his own taxes by hand with paper and pencil. In which he could make an honest mistake. However, this means that he does not use his time wisely, hates technology and cannot follow simple instructions. Therefore, he should not be Treasury secretary.
