The Daschle-Klein Plan

It goes like this: Tom Daschle gets confirmed and his universal health-care plan is adopted, but I don't pay the taxes required to finance the program. I get caught, but simply write a letter apologizing for the oversight and am promptly rewarded with a high-profile government job.

I think Tom Thumb is a goner. He'll withdraw, soon. The NYT is after him today. That's the beginning of the end.

The One, our Marxist leader has withdrawn Tom, as he has more conscience, or sense of his own perceived culpability than the soulless pragmatic RINO herd, who approved the tax cheat to the Treasury. They are scummier, and lower than the Communist running the country.
