Open Letter.

Dear Mr. Daschle,

I've noticed that you have been all over the news lately. Unfortunately, for you, it is for reasons you probably wish would disappear. Isn't it ironic? You consistently voted to raise taxes. You nearly collapsed on the patriot blue carpeting in the senate chambers when Bush 43 proposed tax cuts. Your fought against these tax cuts with more vim and vigor than my 97 year old grandfather displays on a daily basis. This, is a backhanded compliment. He is busier than most spry 45 year olds. I assumed that your strong objections to tax cuts had to do with the pork barrel spending you so desired to set aside for you "pet projects". Little did I know, that you viewed taxes as a mere suggestion. If only I had known. I would have listened to the suggested rate of taxation you deemed acceptable for my income bracket. Then, just like you, I would have neglected to write my check to Uncle Sam. Afterwards, if and when (and this is a definite if and when) the national media found my omitted donation to the federal government, I would sincerely draft and apology of sorts. If only I had known that paying taxes were merely a suggested civic duty. I would have surely tithed, as I do at church on Sunday... and given give or take ten percent. Or, perhaps I would have followed suit and simply forgot to put my check in the mail. The most interesting piece of in this entire tangled little web you have woven, is the fact that you may or may not be in charge of my future health care options. I can hardly wait to see what sort of suggestions you have in store for me, and exactly what your personal health care plan shapes up to be. I know, I know, nationalized health care for all, except for you, Mr. Dashle, who will undoubtedly hire a private physician with all the cash you saved on cheating on you taxes. Perhaps you could just make yourself disappear, pay your taxes (instead of trying to pay your taxes) and keep your paws off of my medica plus plan.
Sincerely,

The Future Queen of the House

PS... I am sorry that I will not remember your 30 years of service, instead of your gross negligence. It seems that your dishonest, illegal, and disgusting tax evading scheme simply trumps anything you have done before. Sorry!
