1 hr 30 mins ago WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama declared on tax-filing day that he aims to take the dread out of deadline day. Obama said at a White House event Wednesday that he's working toward "a simpler tax code that rewards work and the pursuit of the American dream." "For too long, we've seen taxes used as a wedge to scare people into supporting policies that increased the burden on working people instead of helping them live their dreams," Obama said. "That has to change, and that's the work that we've begun." Obama also met at the White House with several working families to mark April 15 — known notoriously as file-or-else day — and underscore his efforts to make the tax code more fair and less complex. He noted April 15 "isn't exactly everyone's favorite date on the calendar." But Obama said the day is a reminder to leaders in Washington that they have a responsibility to the people who elected them. The president noted that he's asked his economic advisers to thoroughly review how to simplify the tax code and report back to him by year's end. "We need to simplify a monstrous tax code that is far too complicated for most Americans to understand, but just complicated enough for the insiders who know how to game the system," Obama said. He added: "It will take time to undo the damage of years of carve-outs and loopholes. But I want every American to know that we will rewrite the tax code so that it puts your interests over any special interest. And we will make it quicker, easier, and less expensive for you to file a return, so that April 15 is not a date that is approached with dread each year."
Poster Comment: A partial list of the Obamalamadingdong Tax Cheat Administration (I'm well qualified as I don't participate AT ALL in their marxist scam): You gotta love this infidels, these same buttlickers who are just dying to raise my taxes so they can spend money on bullcrap programs when the economy is in a recession (like a study of the effects of global warming on the reproductive abilities of sterile lesbians), they certainly set quite an example for us don't they? They scream of the culture of corruption and what not, then they select for Sec. of the Treasury a friggin wanker who intentionally did not pay over $40K in taxes until he knew he was going to be given a cabinet post. But they give him a pass because they believed the prick when he said "I forgot" as his reason to not paying $40K in taxes. Now the HHS nominee, Tom Daschle, another scum sucking pig f**k lefty wanker, somehow "forgot" to report on his taxes, the use of a car and driver that was given to him for four years. Free f**king limo service folks and he "forgets" to claim it on his taxes? This is the "change" we can believe in? No wonder the left suffer from perpetual constipation. These are the same wanks that want to turn the tax system into a welfare system to spread the wealth. Meanwhile, these dolts get away with not declaring income or paying taxes. Folks go to jail for what these pricks do. But not them. They get a pass. I pray that these dickheads get 4 years of daily diarrhea; maybe this way they can eliminate the thousands of metric tons of pure bullshit that happens to reside in their colons and brains. Kind of reminds me of the famous line in the movie Prizzi's Honor when one of the gangster's said about another gangster, "He was a crook, but at least he was honest." Oy vay! Read it here. UPDATE: HOLY SHIT BATMAN, THIS MOFO TAKES THE CAKE: He recently filed amended tax returns to report $128,203 in back taxes and $11,964 in interest. The unreported income for that service totaled more than $250,000 over three years. READ IT HERE. ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT IF OBAMA DOES NOT WITHDRAW THE NOMINATION OF THIS CROOK, THEN OBAMA IS THE BIGGEST F**KING HYPOCRITE PIECE OF S*IT POLITICIAN JUST LIKE THE REST OF THE PRICKS OUT THERE. LET'S SEE WHAT THE LEFTY DICKHEADS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS. AGAIN, I KNOW FOLKS THAT HAVE GONE TO JAIL FOR THE EXACT SAME THING. TOM NEEDS TO GO NOW.

Not sure if this is true, but Snopes does not list it as false. However, you might want to check it out with the IRS and your Senators, just to be sure. Income taxes are normally due on April 15 unless that date falls on a Saturday or Sunday, in which case they are due on Monday the 16th or 17th. However, that rule has recently been suspended. For this year and for the next 3 years, tax payments are not due until you are nominated to a Cabinet position in the Obama administration.
