U.S. Governor

The Resume

    (December 20, 1946- )
    Born in Perry, Georgia
    Birth name is George Ervin Perdue III
    Governor of Georgia (2003- )

Why he might be annoying:

    He is a grown adult who calls himself Sonny.
    He even uses the name Sonny when signing bills into law.
    He failed to report his purchase of 101 acres of land on financial disclosure forms as required by law (2003).
    He opposed a resolution apologizing for Georgia's role in slavery, saying 'It's not right to apologize for other people.'
    He twice led public prayers to try to end a statewide drought (2007).
    Conveniently, both prayers were held just after the 10-day forecast for Atlanta had predicted rain.

Why he might not be annoying:

    As a youth he flew a crop duster and maintains a pilot's license.
    He was a veterinarian before going into politics.
    He was the first Republican governor of Georgia since Reconstruction.
    He was the first governor to order an inventory of the assets owned by the state.
    He and his wife have been foster parents to eight children.
