Al Sharpton Gets A $500,000 Tax Bill

For 2009. He'll need to get a job in the Obama Administration. Tax cheats are okay there.

The IRS on Tuesday filed a $538,652 lien against Al Sharpton with the New York City Register's office for taxes assessed in 2009. Mr. Sharpton and his lawyer disputed the accuracy of the lien, since he was granted an extension of time to October 15 to file his 2009 tax return.  (Detroit News, New York Post)  Mr. Sharpton's civil rights group, National Action Network, also faces serious tax difficulties.
