Isn’t it interesting that the governor had to request an extension again this year, third year in a row, to get his taxes done? Sure they still had to pay an estimate of what they owe, but still. I read he and his family have just been too busy and that his wife and an accountant are supposed to be doing this.

The man is becoming a better role model for kids by the day. I’m sorry I can’t be convinced that he and his wife are so busy that they couldn’t find time to meet with their accountant before April 15th to get everything in order. It seems odd that if the President of the United States can get his records in order and get his filed, a state governor should be able to do the same. Visualizing one’s schedule against the other and my bet is that the Prez is just a tad more occupied.

This just bothers me. I’m sure the majority of Illinois residents found the time to get their taxes done, even if they worked overtime, or jogged every day, and I’m thinking there were some who had busier schedules than Rod.
