#1 But minutes after the news broke, the Obama transition team pushed back with talking points

Which simply means the bastards knew all about it and had the corrective action plan defensive plan already in place. Certainly speaks highly of them I'd say.

#3 Another "Wired" BHO appointment.
This guy didn't know the rules/law?, thus he should be disqualified for such a position OR he "avoided" paying his taxes, thus a "Liar/ Cheater" / he fits right in with "The One"

#4 tu,
You can forget to pay your taxes, but the IRS won't forget to penalize and charge interest for any gaps in payment.

According to Wall Street Journal:

In 2006, the IRS audited Mr. Geithner's 2003 and 2004 taxes and concluded he owed taxes and interest totaling $17,230, according to documents released by the Senate Finance Committee. The IRS waived the related penalties.

During the vetting of Mr. Geithner late last year, the Obama transition team discovered the nominee had failed to pay the same taxes for 2001 and 2002. "Upon learning of this error on Nov. 21, 2008, Mr. Geithner immediately submitted payment for tax that would have been due in those years, plus interest," a transition aide said. The sum totaled $25,970.

Other tax issues also surfaced during the vetting, including the fact Mr. Geithner used his child's time at overnight camps in 2001, 2004 and 2005 to calculate dependent-care tax deductions. Sleepaway camps don't qualify.
