A note to our Congressional leaders
Please, please, please, please pay your taxes. Daschle was bad enough. Rangel may turn into a disaster for us. Pay your damn taxes. This shouldn't be that hard.

The ethical quagmire here sickens me. We've got Rangel and Waters about to have full ethics committee trials, and it doesn't look good for them. Tax evasion (though that isn't what Waters is charged with) plays into every single Republican meme about arrogant, hypocritical liberals who raise taxes (even though we've lowered them) and then don't pay them. This shit has got to stop, and it may well already have cost us the House.
