Politicians,celebrities,and elite in general seem...
to be able to get by with anything that would land us in jail.
Wesley Snipes has not payed taxes for years,owes milliones,but has been acquited of income tax fraud and is being charged only with the misdemeaner of failure to file income tax forms.
Don't ya just love it?

What's the saying " MONEY TALKS AND BULL S**T WALKS".....There are two diffrent kinds of people -them and us-I think someday it will all come back and bite them in the a&&.
Why not!! If Ted Kennedy and OJ get away with murder, why shouldn't Snipes get away with tax evation. What upsets me too is that they hung Willey Nelson out to dry for the same thing and not Wesley.

They don't like country music! I was gonna say sumthin' else, then I remembered, he's on the other side. Now you can give me Alan Jackson any ole day, He seems to be a pretty good ole fella!!!
Heck, just look at the things Clinton did while President. If any of us had lied under oath we would still be doing time for perjury.Not to mention some of the other things he did that were both indictable and impeachable.

Windwalker, I'm with you on that statement, but I'm trying not to get carried away. Some folks just seem to be able to do anything at all, and get away with it. Ted Kennedy comes to mind, driving off a bridge while drunk, drowning the secretary he was having an affair with. Then call in 12 hours later, and say it was an accident! If it had a been me, I'd still be in jail.
Speaking of that,did you ever hear of a celebraty do time for possession?
Nope,they bust them a few times and when the media cries about how hard they have it they go off to some fancy dude ranch or swanky club to "dry out."
Then the stories,books etc. come out about how hard their life was and how fame and fortune drove them to the breaking point!

Not really. you can walk into any court in the country and hear bigger lies than Clinton told, before the first potty break. My wife's ex used to drag us into court every year or two, and it was almost breathtaking to sit and listen to some of the whoppers people told, and stuck with even after being shot down by documents in black and white.
Celebs are to the modern era what nobility was back in ye olden times. Privileged, envied by the 'lower classes' and can expect special treatment in any situation because people are told to adore them.
wesly snipes is that a new rifle??? amazes me why any one would pay attention to him or his movies!!!!!!!!! As for taxes why should he or any one else have to pay? maybe he isn't as progressive as he thinks???
