George W. Bush (R-IL)

Oliver Willis shows us what our President and Al Capone have in common; the appearance of tax evasion AND the Illinois address:

They've got a house in rural Texas and a nice home-office setup on Pennsylvania Avenue. But for tax purposes, President Bush and his wife, Laura, claim a Chicago post office box as their "home address."
On the 1040 they signed, which the White House released last week, the listed home address is "Northern Trust Co., P.O. Box 803968, Chicago, IL 60680."


It's probably the address of his blind trust. That doesn't make it his home address. It's another case of an Administration claim that's not technically illegal, but not technically truth either.
