C Street House No Longer Tax Exempt

By GottaLaff

C Street is becoming C Dirt Road. C Alley? C Ya Later:

Residents of the C Street Christian fellowship house will no longer benefit from a loophole that had allowed the house's owners to avoid paying property taxes. [...]

In recent year, Senators John Ensign (R-NV), Tom Coburn (R-OK), Sam Brownback (R-KS) and Jim DeMint (R-SC), and Reps. Zach Wamp (R-TN), Bart Stupak (D-MI) and Mike Doyle (D-PA) have all reportedly called C Street home.

And their paramours have called it home too! More like C Street Motel. How generous of the C Street Christian Family to share all that living space so generously with their little friends.

Natalie Wilson, a spokeswoman for the Office of Tax and Revenue:

"It was determined that portions of it were being rented out for private residential purposes," she said. As a result, the tax exempt status was partially revoked. Sixty-six percent of the value of the property is now subject to taxation.

"Private residential purposes," huh? Kinda makes one's head spin with possibilities.

I'll stop now before I get into trouble.

Here's a vid-tweet from Rachel Maddow's producer now that mentions this very topic:
