... or does this say something about our politicians in general?  Yet another Obama nomination has hit a rough spot in the road — this time, former Dallas mayor Ron Kirk, whom Obama wants as the US trade representative ... and who turns out to owe the IRS $10,000 in back taxes between underreported income, overclaimed expenses, and "improper treatment of accounting fees".

Yo!  Mr. President!  I don't owe any taxes.  How about you appoint me to one of these jobs?  ...Oh, wait, that disqualifies me?

Or does it say something about our tax code? He had a very expensive paid accountant doing his taxes, and he didn't get it right..
