So um, Timothy Geitner's nomination to be Secretary of Treasury is being held up over his failure to pay the employer's portion of Social Security for his salary while at the IMF. Turns out by the time he got audited the Statue of limitations had run out on even paying.

This is the guy who is supposed to be in charge of the IRS!?!?!?! How many "inadvertant oversights will he be overlooking for his cronies?

How many female judicial nominees got their nominations derailed over failure to pay taxes for their foreign nannies?

Again, this is the guy nominated to be in charge of the IRS!

Dial-a-tirade question: assuming this oversight is really bad symbolically, why else would one NOT want this guy to be Secretary of Treasurey and who mightLBO-sters strongly prefer?
