Bush is a FIP! (for tax purposes)
Crosspost from DU forums...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x1735687

"WASHINGTON -- ....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."

White House spokeswoman Erin Healy said Tuesday that's because Northern Trust handles the blind trust the couple uses for their holdings since Bush took office. <snip>

In general, the IRS frowns upon the use of a post office box as a home address on tax forms. Instructions for Form 1040 say, "Enter your box number only if your post office does not deliver mail to your home." <snip>
