Ironically the lone republican he's tapped for Commerce Secretary is the cleanest and most controversy free pick he's made. When he said he was willing to reach across the aisle, who knew it was to find the only qualified and honest cabinet choices?

But I agree, they should all pay their damn taxes, and he absolutely shouldnt be hiring Daschle. Or the Raytheon lobbyist. Or Geithner. It's very disappointing. And if he doesnt give a good-sized, reassuring address on this subject I'll be back to the old suspicion and mistrust of politicians, which would be too bad because if I'm all disappointed and disillusioned that means millions are, and this is not the time for momentum and trust to slow down.
I commend you for noticing the obama-nominated tax cheats. Obama on the other hand will not be addressing this any time soon, other than to say he is disappointed. He probably thought in his arrogance that he could get away with this without too much uproar.
