Georgia served Cain with lien for failing to pay 2006 income taxes

[DreamSmoker]

There may be a reason Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain objects to the current tax code.

The state of Georgia served the multimillionaire with a tax lien in 2008 because he failed to pay his 2006 state income taxes, according to documents obtained by The Daily Beast.

8. Voting for someone that had cancer is a personal decision.

And here is his response...

Cain's campaign was quick to point out to ABC News that Cain was undergoing treatment for Stage 4 cancer in 2006. A Cain spokesman said that due to his illness, Cain had requested -- and was granted -- a six-month extension of his federal taxes and had requested the same from the state, which Georgia allows. Nevertheless, the state sent a delinquency notice to Cain in late 2007 and filed the lien in early 2008. Cain spokesman J.D. Gordon said Cain's accountant had protested the delinquency to no avail.

"Mr. Cain responded in a timely manner to the delinquency notice sent by the Georgia Department of Revenue but was unable to stop the process that ultimately led to the filing of the tax lien," said Gordon. Documents show the lien was removed in November 2008.
