Re: Rep. Phil Hart makes a 'donation' to school endowment fund

Sisyphus: I expect Hart is concerned that if he makes payment on a judgment which hasn't been renewed, he might provide legal grounds for the entire judgment to be revived. And he wants to pay only the amounts he thinks are fair instead of the total amount the court and the law imposed. Same as what he's doing with the IRS. That tells me a couple things. 1) He's insincere about this payment and doing it to stave off political consequences which, ironically, is a tacit admission of wrongdoing in any event. 2) its another example of how his titanic ego vastly overshadows any inclination towards selflessness. I can see why he and Larry are buds.

Question: Which bothers you most re: Rep. Phil Hart's troubles -- his debt of almost $500,000 to the IRS/Idaho Tax Commission or his theft of timber from endowment land?
