Oh, that poor, poor woman. She is such a victim. Makes me cry big, fat crocodile tears.

Despite a heavy tax burden, Warren Buffetts secretary last year was able to purchase a second home in Arizona, a residence complete with a swimming pool and a professional PGA putting green, according to real estate records.
Debra Bosanek, 55, and her husband Gerald bought the 2100-square-foot home in Surprise, a city outside Phoenix. The Bosaneks paid $144,000 for the four-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath property (the purchase was financed, in part, by a $115,200 mortgage).
The principal Bosanek residence is in Bellevue, Nebraska, several miles from Buffetts corporate headquarters in Omaha. The couples 2568-square-foot home, built in 2000, also has four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. But the modest property, which Sarpy County assessors last year valued at $217,716, offers no outdoor amenities for swimmers or golfers.
Bosanek, who attended the State of the Union speech, has become the face of President Barack Obamas so-called Buffett Rule, which contends that the secretary of a wealthy individual should not pay a higher tax rate than their boss.
