Daschle Apologizes


President Barack Obama’s choice to lead the Health and Human Services Department said he was “deeply embarrassed and disappointed” about not paying his taxes. Tom Daschle failed to pay more than $120,000 in taxes.

Daschle wrote a letter to the Senate Finance Committee trying to explain how he overlooked taxes on additional income.


The Senate panel will decide on Daschle’s nomination. As for President Obama, he is sticking by his nominee.
