nj,the unknowing general public lives next door to you and probably includes you as far as knowing the tax code. I said it earlier I will say it again if the American public sees how the tax code really works for the very wealthy the voting backlash will be significant. those of you who say it will be disected,bisected and put under the microscope are correct and I believe the American public will be amazed and shocked and disgusted.Again,I do not think Romney did anything wrong,he just took advantage of a unequal tax system.

AND I agree with you ! He, and others have repeatedly asked for revisions to the tax code.

RNC chairman, Reince Preibus called Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) a "dirty liar" on ABC's This Week today. Apparently this makes Reid 'Dirty Harry'. If only there were some way to clear this up once and for all, so we could get on with the problems this country is facing.

That would appear to be entirely up to the Obama campaign as Romney has met his legal requirements and a smidgen more and is not going to go any further and since all the uproar is from that campaign, it would appear to be up to him when we can discuss the many problems we have !

Willard better have a good answer as to why he refuses to release the same number of returns that previous POTUS candidates have released. You can bet this will be issue 1 in the first debate.

Willard "meeting the legal requirement" is not good enough.

Don't forget, the rich are raping this country and their high paid lawyers are keeping it in the legal column that they themselves bought into law.

Mitt Romney raised such a stink when his opponent Shannon O'Brien's husband would not release his tax return. That's correct, her husband. Mrs O'Brien released her tax return, which Romney never did, during their 2002 gubernatorial contest, but Romney was outraged that O'Brien's husband would not release his. Romney was also outraged when Teddy Kennedy would not release his tax returns in 1994, when they opposed each other for senate.

Romney has no argument to make about releasing tax returns when these old videotapes are played of him whining on and on about other people's tax returns.

During the 2002 democratic gubernatorial primary in MA, all the democratic candidates released tax returns. Romney refused. This is what makes him such a hypocrite on the issue. What's sauce for the goose isn't necessarily sauce for the gander.

Guest 08-05-2012 05:38 PM

he does have one really good excuse....he has fulfilled all the obligations placed on him legally as a candidate.

And we all know the tax mania is nothing more than the political distraction that it is.

Are you ready and willing to turn your returns over to a pack of vultures whose ONLY goal is to make you look bad some how. Would you allow that to happen to you?

This question has not ever been answered when ever I ask it. I don't expect an answer from those who support the no matter what philosophy.

When you have nothing invested it is oh so easy to throw stones.

This turning over your returns to a pack of vultures wasn't an issue for President Obama, the Clintons, the Bushes, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, or Richard Nixon. Do you want me to list the hundreds of top cabinet officials and vice presidential candidates that it wasn't an issue? BTW I'm not running for president.

You are confused as are most of the far right wing. The people, yes us working stiffs, just want to know what the Man is hiding. We don't think he is guilty of crimes or guilty of being rich. Just show me.

Oh, please. Obama and the Senate Democrats ARE "high-paid lawyers" who ARE "the rich", and they have not passed a federal budget in four years!!!!!!

The most interesting aspect of the election frightened left on the issue of Romney's taxes is the actions of U.S. Senate leader Harry Reid.

Harry has been saying that someone from Bane Capital has been divulging information about Romney's taxes to him. THAT IS A FEDERAL CRIME AND A FELONY.

The IRS and the FBI should be investigating these allegations to find this person and determine the truth of what Harry is saying. If Harry lies at all, that also is a federal crime. Can you say Scooter Libby or Martha Stewart?

These are serious concerns and the IRS should be on top of this.

We all know that's not gonna happen, though.

RICHIE....I am in Tampa right now....I think I told you on here once before that we have a condo here also (at least for a few more months), Anyway, Tampa is a very liberal city......I talk to lots and lots of folks who are just plain sick and tired of all of this Bain, and the tax situation and I cannot use the words they use to describe Reid.

I really think these last few months, while many Dems seem to be having fun taking shots are going to backfire BIG TIME !!! I have spoken to Dems here who are actually active in the party and they are saying they might just take this election "off"....just not vote....they are not going to support Romney of course but they have about had it with this Obama machine !

Yeah, that continuing thing on rich versus poor thing does not translate very well when you look at this stuff......the Dems are shooting themselves in the foot I do believe !
