It’s about time. Tom Daschle has withdrawn his nomination as HHS, according to a statement from Barack Obama, commander of crooks:

Obama said Tuesday he accepted the withdrawal “with sadness and regret.” Daschle has been battling for his nomination since it was disclosed he failed to pay more than $120,000 in taxes.

He said he’s withdrawing because he’s not a leader who has the full faith of Congress and will be a distraction.

Ohh, I thought he was withdrawing for being a repeated tax-cheat.
