Cheating justice?

Re “IRS agent pleads guilty in tax fraud,” March 31

IRS agent Jim H. Liu pleaded guilty to a tax-fraud charge that carries a potential three-year federal prison term because he cheated the government out of $15,000.

What I want to know is, why didn’t all those tax cheats in President Obama’s Cabinet get the same treatment? It seems as if Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner wrote the book on tax fraud, yet he gets a pass.

We will pay his bill for years to come. Talk about the fox guarding the henhouse.
