Fill out the forms,
mail them out.
There are bankers out there
in need of a bail-out.
Can't depend on those politicians
in the upper tax brackets.
They all forgot to pay their taxes.

Dear Ida, your ascerbic wit is always a treat to read!
Even as the body wears down with the passing of time, your mind will always be sharp!

Now I best get to work on my taxes and put some money in the goverment's coffers so that it can help out the fat cats! Meow!

Love 'n a warm hug,
Linda

You nailed it with this one.  You are Queen for the Day in my book.

Love,

Well said, although lets not forget that we pay taxes with every paycheck we earn, on each item we purchase in the Mall, on the gas we put in our cars, on the property we own...April 15 is just a settling...James

Aparently not for rich politicians. It's pretty sad when the president can't fill his cabinet positions because so many of
the politcians of choice haven't paid their taxes. (for years)
