Doug Bruce Found Guilty Of Tax Evasion, Faces Up To 12 Years In Prison, $700,000 In Fines
Doug Bruce, Colorado's notorious anti-tax advocate, was found guilty by a Denver jury Wednesday on tax-evasion charges. An indictment
filed in April, 2011, charged Bruce with evasion of taxes, filing a false tax return, attempting to influence a public servant, and failure to file return or pay tax.
The Colorado Springs Gazette reports Bruce faces up to 12 years in prison and $700,000 in fines. He must also turn over his passport as prosecutors believe he is a flight risk.
According to the Denver Post, prosecutors say the former lawmaker used his own anti-tax group, "Active Citizens Together," to disguise his income. From 2005 through 2007, prosecutors believe Bruce funneled his salary as El Paso County commissioner into the group.
Another neo-con tax-cheat goes down... Typical teabagger. Seems like I remember some bumper-stickers at one time: "Thank you Douglas Bruce -- A True Friend of Liberty"...
Why the need to ALWAYS make some stupid broad brush statement that you CAN NOT back up? "Typical teabagger" huh? Why don't you show us all how this is "typical" of people you call teabaggers. Since you can't, maybe you should be honest for once and let us know this is just your warped opinion (I don't think I've ever seen you say "in my opinion")
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
You mean like the broad brush statements about all liberals on here every day? When I start seeing "in my opinion" from the broad brush neo-cons I'll consider it.
