Sarah Palin a tax cheat? Would that really surprise anyone?

Just click the title of this post and be whisked away to my pal AKMuckraker's Huffington Post piece investigating Palin's potential tax problems.

And for a bonus you will finally learn the contents of the mysterious envelope AKM received a while back.

    Please, please somebody file charges. What more crimes must she commit before some agency holds her accountable?

    It occurred to me that the GOP likes Palin because she can be a punching bag for the left and keep the real contenders for 2012 out of danger of being overexposed or exposed. The GOP is so short on talent these days they can't afford to lose another potential candidate like they lost Huckabee.

    What on earth did Tony's party do with the only known record of this 'fresh faced' conservative phenom from the Valley? Did they sit on that document?

    This Alaskan voter had the sense not to vote for her but it's a wonder what kind of pause the party could have given to the state's Independents taken in by her projected sense of ethics and fiscal savvy. . .the votes were split enough to have made a difference, but this little pit-bull would have kept trying to plow through door cracks.

    This document and the facts therein could have saved us, the national GOP and fringe groups a lot of trouble, money and heartache from this Great Pretender.

    Which newspaper or magazine will be the first to publish this early Palin intelligence?

    I think what truly annoys me about the Palin Ogre is not that she's had a few trip ups. I'm always of the mind the everyone's toilet overflows sometimes. But Palin must have a septic tank the size of Rhode Island and it has about five thousand holes in it. The shit just keeps on coming.

    But she always manages to rub it off her face because her backers are sad, deluded sycophants. But let's face it--she's a nightmare liability.

    Follow the INSURANCE policy.

    Find out when a CO (certificate of occupancy) was issued. This is different than a building permit; a CO certifies the building was completed under the applicable building code. I KNOW there is one for AK, since S'error complained loudly about the Stimulus forcing AK to take on new building codes.

    Find the federal tax returns and the itemized tax deductions - IRS will be very interested in possible falsely filed returns.

    I lost my connection to AKM when I was trying to post about the "cabin." I remember something about this during the campaign. Her properties were listed and the unlivable cabin way out the woods somewhere was noted as literally worthless. They were listing McCain's properties and hers along with it. Somebody check it out. See what she said during the campaign.

    How do they get electricity in there? Generators? Diesel Fuel. As to the commentor above. I don't think public roads to it have anything to do with the taxes. Do you have a home out there that will now be taxed if hers is? There are many places in the rural areas around Va and other eastern states that are off public roads. Folks still have to pay taxes. It's based on deed AND market value.

    You can build a place like this for $6-8K out of pocket. Nobody spends much because there is no way to protect it - if a forest fire comes through, it's gone.

    There's no way a law-abiding taxpayer wouldn't look at their tax assessment, and see the discrepancy, call the office, get it straightenend out and be honest.

    Less government won't be effective if people don't pay their taxes.

    To think, through her PAC and AFT, she'd accept $5 from grannies, and money from moms who fed their kids rice so she could indulge in her get-away cottages with great views, all the while avoiding to pay property taxes.

  53. My take: Technically, it is up to the assessor to impose the taxes.

    Morally, ethically, and as a public official who KNOWS the burrough needs revenue - SP should have informed them that there were structures on the property and the taxes should be adjusted accordingly.

    Yet, her supporters think it is fine and dandy that she did not point out the mistake (for several years and to this day)- she, a Government official did NOT let the assessor know! Think about that.

  55. Love the comments that claim building assessments are needed but don't document the claim.

    Per the subdivision list, several properties DO show building improvements. The ones that don't may not have buildings or are also tax cheats.

  56. BTW, if I had seen such an error on MY tax bill, I would let them know. NOT because of "fear" of having to pay back taxes, but because it is the MORAL and ETHICAL thing to do - to pay our fair share. If we are fortunate enough to make enough $ to build houses and cabins, do we not have an obligation to pay taxes if/when the assessor makes a "mistake?"

  58. And I suppose someone checked out her residence and her new residence that was just built to see if property taxes were paid. I'm not for sure if a home is under construction if it is taxed in that year or not. So it looks like Sarah has two chalets and two homes...not bad for a grifter.

    Actually, a good point was made here. It does matter what year these structures were built, as, yes. . .it generally takes about a year for the assessing office to catch up with their records. ..as a matter of course, even when they know about improvements. So, if it was built in 2007, it would not show up on the 2007 bill and possible that it might not show on 2009. However, as Palin was Governor you would think she would be extra vigilant that a new structure show up on her tax bill. . .especially as she has criticized others.

    And as for 'filing charges' this is generally not a sanction in cases like these. . .at most, a levy against back taxes, possibly a fine on top of that. . . but as this is Alaska, I doubt the latter. And the IRS has nothing to do with property tax arrearages, it is a municipal matter.

    No assessor in any municipality, I don't care how small or large personally inspects ALL properties EVERY year. The only time that happens is during a city or town wide revaluation, which happen in cycles, according to different state standards.

    Therefore, it is always dependent upon the honesty of the taxpayer, or the ratting out of same by neighbors. . .or the imposition of building permits, etc that trigger updates to tax records.

    Here’s a link to her schedule A from 2007. http://www.slate.com/id/2201650/entry/2201653/. Joint return. $166,000 in income. Just over $10K in mortgage interest.

    I know what interest I pay on my 15 year mortgage that’s half paid off. I got a great low rate in 2003. My house is worth 1/4 to 1/3 of the value of Palin’s house in Wasilla. I know that you can deduct interest on 2 houses (I think there’s a $1 million limit on the combined mortgages). My interest is 40% of what the Palin’s claimed.

    $10K in interest probably only covers a loan value of 200K to 250K. Where the heck did the Palin’s get the money to pay off almost all of their MULTIPLE houses?

    That's just like some posters describe everything else, so I'll help them out by saving them the trouble.

    Sometimes there is a situation where people that want something from politicians give them 'free' or discounted building materials and labor, for their house( or vacation shack or whatever).

    In some states that is corruption, but as I have been told by some posters, everything is different in Alaska, and how could a non- Alaskan know.

    MY MISTAKE... I thought this was a Senator Ted Stevens on trial thread! How could that confusion have happened? ;)

    Hope you kept the receipts for what you bought for all these building projects.

    If Devon had this mystery envelope for so long, why didn't she simply call the Mat-Su Borough and ask a few questions. Why was this property assessed, are there plans to assess it now, are the taxes underpaid?

    Or is this a lot of hoo--hoo over nothing? After all, the DNC lawyers and all the reporters in '08 went over every public record with a magnifying glass and didn't care.

    10:47, then why did the tax assessor assess other "cabins" NOT belonging to the Palins on Safari Lake?

    You see, the problem is, it's not consistent. There are buildings on lots at that lake that either HAVE been assessed, or that the owners have called for assessing. Somehow, either the assessor managed to get out there, or the owners managed to provide documentation to the assessor.

    Neither of those things is the case with the Palins' buildings. Why not? Why are they the exception?

    Who knows? Maybe the cabins are new, maybe Palin never saw the bills. Scott Richter lives out of state, maybe the tax bills went to him.

    "Hey Todd, since I am the majority owner of this place, I'll handle all the taxes and the filings, you make sure there is wood there when I need it."

    Why don't one of you junior G-men make a phone call and follow up?

    And while you're at it, ask somebody why no one from the mainstream has picked this story up. And, no Shannyn Moore's little radio club doesn't count; her audience is so small it essentially has no ratings. None.
