Listening to a replay of Beck's show last night. Said there was another member of the administration that didn't file a tax return for two years in a row. I was in the car so didn't write down the name. Can't find it googling yet.

Capricia Marshall chief of protocol for the State Department...

...did not file tax returns for 2005 and 2006, errors she corrected last November.

...has placed blame for the problem on the Postal Service and on miscommunication between her husband and their accountant

I know you already got one reply to this question, but there is this other person. From the Obama board:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

WASHINGTON (AP) — Barack Obama's choice for a top job with the Treasury Department is having tax problems.

A congressional report says Obama's nominee for undersecretary of the Treasury for international affairs, Lael Brainard, was late in paying real estate taxes in 2005, 2006 and 2007.

The report by the Senate Finance Committee staff also challenges the accuracy of a deduction Brainard claimed for running an office from her home. The challenge led Brainard to reduce the deduction on her 2008 return.

The committee's top Republican is unhappy that the committee staff had to submit 10 sets of questions to Brainard before getting complete information about the discrepancies.

Brainard is the fifth Obama nominee to have tax problems.
