He will never show his 2008 returns because that swiss bank account with 3 mil on his 2009 return was probably absent and he took advantage of the amnesty in 2009 to start listing it as many many others did who had been using swiss accounts to avoid taxes till the UBS debacle. Don't you want to see if that is true? He has always resisted releasing his tax returns and never did in 2008. This year he filed an extension to avoid releasing them. if he is so proud of earning money the right way what'ss the fear? Could it be that 3 mil in swiss accounts was :forgotten" like most americans swiss accounts were previous to 2009? Or is it just he fears more embarrsement along the lines of the sudan investments or more embarrssement around his using shell companies to help Bain investors avoid paying their fair share in taxes?psst why pay uncle sam?genocide shouldnt interfere with capitalismObama is weak on Iran???Hell, at least he isnt investing there

Are you saying that he earned 3 million in interest? If he did, and deliberately didnt report it, that's tax fraud. A US citizen is obligated to report 'total worldwide income'. If he had foreign holdings, those would not show up on his tax return. The form for reporting foreign banks accounts is an information return that reflects the account information only.

This is true of all US citizens, not just liars like Romney.

One of the funnier things about the Republican massive is their insistence that while welfare is an abomination, tax fraud is basic right for anybody who's earning enough for their tax payments to put a dent in military spending. It's another aspect of that skipping out on the bill thing the Kenyan was bitching about.

Romney's tax returns aren't more of an issue than teh Kenyan's birth certificate, then?

The Romneys are a Michigan family, so I knew from way back that they're the quintessence of New Republicanism. It just irks me when people show they have no clue about how the tax system works. The rich have ways of hiding money that mere mortals can bit dream of. And it's all legal, because the rich back the ways & means committee...

Mittens is constantly criticizing Europe.Dissing them and their governments.

Europe is something Mittens WARNS us that we might become.......if we don`t elect him!

And where Mittens stashes his money.....

Now you guys are crying for disclosure? Where were the cries 4 years ago?

How about some college transcripts while we're at it?

Frankly it's none of your fucking business how much Romney paid in taxes, 1/2 of Obama's cabinet are tax frauds, and you fucks haven't said a word about it.

I dont see the point in this sort of disclosure anyway. It's a given that anyone who runs as a major party candidate has many many millions to draw from. Joe the Plumber will never run for president.

The collage transcripts is a dumber extension of the bigotty birther bullshit.....not surprising you going there.

Mitch McConnell is trying to hide who`s bankrolling them.....

Where`s the cries from rightists about disclosure there......hypocrite.

http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/06/mitch-mcconnell-disclose-campaign-finance-john-mccain.php

Hey...little favor from a fellow board member......when you mention birth certificates or collage transcripts......you`re pigeon holing yourself......NOT in a good way.

No one is going to engage you,respect or pay attention if you do(accept asshole birthers).

Thinking it was an issue you could call us on and expect to be taken seriously doesn`t add to the gravitas either.

This....is a big part of why you cons are going to lose the election.

If I want to hide my college transcripts, noone except a prospective employer can say squat and I've never had one ask to see them. I show them I gaaduated and with what degrees and that's it.

If I don't want to pay taxes, I go directly to jail. Do not pass go, Do not collect $200.

Bit of difference there.

Unless you work for the government you mean, right?

Owner, how many times this year have the left gotten egg on it's face for criticizing Romney, only to find Obama has done the same thing, or worse?

You might want to do a better job of cleaning your own house before criticizing mine, ya dig? BTW, how's that dog tasting this year?

Choom baby, choom!

Much, now if only Owner and his like would look before they leap, I wouldn't have to call them on their bullshit topics... It's almost like he's going out of his way to discredit the current administration.

We both know there's 2 sets of rules. One for us working schmucks and one for those on both the Right and Left who are wealthy.

Everybody disclosed everything required by law 4 years ago.

It is very much our business how much fucking money Romney made and paid.   Hit a little more night school and skip a couple dougnuts, its been on the books since 73.  Ask Sanity if that isn't so.


I don't give a fuck if he recieves 100% of ALL electoral votes, he doesn't release those and he cannot be president, by law.

Obama released 7 yrs of tax returns in 2008...Mitt released none. I'd be happy with just 2008 because if the swiss acount isnt listed then he was stashing the earnings illegally and took advantage of the amnesty for swiss accounts in 2009. Yea, the rish avoid taxes legally they also do so illegally and if he took advantage of a tax amnesty I have a right to know he was breaking the law. If he ddin't have a swiss account it wouldn't be a likelihood but, because he does the chances a super secure and anonymous account's interest was claimed is laughable. It's the whole reason people used swiss accounts pre UBS it's not like they had a superior return or superior safety. The sole advantage over a U.S. or German bank would be tax avoidance. Otherwise it would of been a dumbass move to seek lower returns than other banks could offer?


Lady Hibacus the point is swiss accounts were traditionally pre 2009 and UBS used solely to avoid legally owed taxes. They made bank on that and not high returns as other banks did. In 2009 the yr he released after the UBS ruling there was an amnesty on swiss accounts that had been unreported. If Mittens wasdn't reporting hsi account in 2008 he was breaking the law and used an amnesty program......DOA in Nov imo if discovered....so he won't release anything but that one yr he released in primaries a precedent unheard of for candidates. Obam the supposed s ecretive one released 7 yrs showing huge wealth. Wealth isn't an issue but tax dodging ala Nixon might be
