Who Is Doing the Vetting of the Obama Vetting Team? Rush Limbaugh?

President Obama and his transition team along with his so-called vetting team has had since November 5th, 2008 to do a comprehensive, thorough, examination, investigation and cross examination of all his nominations for all major posts in his new administration. The first sign of a crack in the armor of the Obama vetting team was their gross inability to recognize the serious questions about Bill Richardson that had been widely reported in the media for well over a year. But what we have in the cases of Timothy Geithner, Tom Daschle and Nancy Killefer is a blatant failure of the Obama vetting team to investigate fully and vet these respective candidates who have appeared to have attempted to avoid paying taxes in a like and similar fashion as the general public. The Obama gang from Chicago then put a self-serving, duplicitous spin on the Geithner, Daschle and Killefer nominations by saying these three individuals only made minor errors on their taxes. Someone tell me how are Mr. Geithner, Mr. Daschle and Mrs. Killefer any different than Alphonse Capone who was indicted and convicted on tax evasion? All three nominees only paid their taxes after the problems surfaced during the vetting process thereby giving the appearance of trying to fraud the government. It appears the Obama vetting team may have been attempting to cover up the miscues of the three candidates.
It’s okay for people like Timothy Geithner, Tom Daschle and Nancy Killefer who wear Brooks Brothers’ suits in and around the Beltway and on Wall Street to deliberately avoid paying their taxes in a timely manner. But what happens to the average wise guy or Joe or Susie Sixpack on Main Street who attempt to evade paying taxes? Why is there a gross double standard on the part of the IRS relative to selective prosecuting of tax evaders regardless of their socio-economic class status and income?
How are Tim Geithner, Tom Daschle and Nancy Kellefer eminently qualified to run our Treasury Department, Health and Human Services and be the Chief Performance Officer when they disregarded their tax responsibilities which are ingrained in our DNA. And what does this say about the ability, skill and talent of the Obama vetting team to do a thorough, in-depth examination and investigation of all key cabinet level positions. Mr. Obama, is this the kind of example you want to set for our young people and children that it’s okay to cheat as long as you don’t get caught? And when you get caught, just simply say: ‘you overlooked the matter or it was an oversight’. All of these individuals have bona-fide accountants, so how did these egregious errors occur?
Is this the change, Mr. Obama, you were speaking of on the campaign trail? Or is this just more of the same---Washingtonian politics with business as usual? I guess all politicians think the American electorate is dumb and pig ignorant. At a time when most Americans have become skeptical about the motives, intentions, honesty and integrity of government and corporate CEO’s, President Obama gives an appearance that he is trying to bamboozle the American people with a group of political hustlers in Geithner, Daschle and Killefer. The only Obama key cabinet posts with which I feel comfortable are the distinguished Steven Chu, Energy Secretary, General Eric Shinseki, Secretary of Veterans Affairs and James L. Jones, National Security Adviser.
Do these bumpy, clumsy, false starts on the part of Team Obama to thoroughly vet personnel for key cabinet positions signal the type of governance we are going to have for the next four years?
