No. The secrecy surrounding Mitt Romney concerns me.
Hey Chris the poll is at 100% That seldom happens. I think he keeps far too many secrets. Even from himself and his family......Not an honest man is he?
I said no also.
he's on the GOP ticket and he has flipped more than a white shark out of water.
after Bushwacker I already knew who I was going to vote for.
Romney is only a secret if you close your eyes. again I know who I'm voting for.
now why would I want to go and hire a corporate vulture to watch over me? I'm not dead yet.
Ann doesn't know if he's the father of her children!
And he's to much like Raygun, he can't even remember how much money he has or where it is!
And he wears elevator shoes!
Yes = What about Transparency ?? Where There Is NO Transparency There Must Be Something to HIDE and To Be Hidden with Intent !!!!
xo - The way She is Holding that Microphone - She MUST Be thinking of someone Else !!!!!
It also takes him one hour to look at himself in the mirror every morning while he combs his hair over and over.....He probably blows kisses to himself and he tells him self over and over how fantastic he is. You know how he likes to lie.
LOL!! he's so vain, i bet he thinks its all about him.
Yes, I agree about his well kept secret, not about his wealth. Why does hide about it? Only answer is something screwey, and not so trustworthy. There is something that Darrell, Darrell, Darrel Issa has to investigate! One darell is not emough for all these. Two brothers are missing.And once again Hateful Hannity was having a baby on his show.
Yes, I agree about the secrecy in the Romney campaign. His wealth, his selective choice of media interviews. I notice NBC is soft gloving Romney no doubt in anticipation of sweetening the pot for a potential interview.
any candidate who hides his money off shore instead of investing his money in the USA concerns me. it is also disconcerting that rummy enjoys firing people, outsourced thousands of American jobs, that he states he isn't concerned about the poor because they have safety nets that he wants to destroy with his allegiance to ryan's pathway to destruction. rummy seems incapable of standing up to anyone (eg trump/limbaugh)--don't want to risk losing a vote or money. he refuses to disclose his tax returns except for a couple. just what is he hiding??? his is worse than an etch-a-sketch--he says whatever the people he is in front of want to hear and now he is catering to the radicals in the rethuglican party. rummy refuses to talk with the press. rummy feels he is entitled to the presidency. thus far any leadership skills is pitifully lacking given his continual change in positions, his statement that he stands by whatever he said, his continual smurk on his face. now with his multimillion dollar home at which he is vacationing shows his total disconnect with the 99%--he is just totally out of touch. zero plans. zero tranparency. very very scary candidate.
If he wasnt running for the position of POTUS, it wouldn't concern me. But is it strange that he wants to be president with a salary that is beneath him but the power is extreme. I cannot imagine that he want the good of the country. Everything about his campaign is hush-hush. He meets with the 1% and he promises and then doesnt want to tell his plans to the general public. Yeah! its time to be concerned.
I read that Romney pretty much ran his governorship of Massachusetts the same way, keeping everyone at arm's length and keeping a choke-hold on his office's records and emails. If he is somehow elected president, just think of yourselves as sick puppies all strapped to the rooftop of his sedan as he takes you for a ride.
Anybody that lies every time they opens their mouth. Is most definitely hiding something. Full disclosure is an alien language to Willard ET Romney.
Hi Thankful post # 1.5,
While Mitt is looking in the mirror, he should be contacting John Edwards 2 find out how he can get a $ 400 hair cut. His porcupine hair spines looks like they have been scratched out by a gang of rats.
Hey folks. When was the last time we elect a president who hide his money in Bermuda, Cayman Islands, Swiss Banks accounts, etc. to avoid pay American tax rate?
@afrommi
Of course Mutt Robme wants the Presidency only for the power... as the salary would be a mere pittance in his view. But he does want to make sure he can make huge tax cuts and loopholes for millionaires permanent... and privatize as many public services and programs as possible.
Those are just a few of Robme's lofty goals... oh yeah... and repealing Obamacare, Dodd/Frank, etc., giving corporations and Wall street free reign to do whatever in the hell they want when it comes to screwing the middle class and the 99%.
Hey folk, when was the last time we elect a president who has 23 offshore accounts in Bermuda, Cayman Islands, Swiss Banks accounts, etc. ?
Off subject, but it is going to be 97 degrees in Pgh tomorrow and 99 on Sat and 91 on Monday!
As much as I want to see Obama tomorrow, I cannot stand 97 degree heat. Good grief, when will this end.
It will end......won't it??? If this is our future, I'm thinking Canada!
AIKhidr, #1.11 We will be the dogs strapped to the roof of his car. That dog took off into Canada.
Smart dog. I can see the human population of Canada growing under a Romney presidency, as well.
Canadians think health care for everyone is a good idea. Romney thinks not.
Voters: It is up to you to decide: Do you want health care insurance or not. Do you want to move to Canada for it? Perhaps it would be better to have it here? Not a tough call for me! How about you?
On the other hand, they just revised the weather report from 97 to 99 tomorrow. Well..........I'm thinking.........
Time to watch out. She's thinking. lol
Very definitely NO!
@India LeCarre, RE:
We won't have it that good, @India - we'll be on the roof alright, but we'll be hanging on by our fingertips, dependent upon the strength of our respective grips, as to whether we can stay on the roof. If not, we can only hope the direction the car is moving is in the right direction.
@All:
Romney has made claims that he knows how to create jobs, but what jobs he helped create while working as a Corporate Vulture also destroyed jobs, so that the net difference wasn't very desirable. That, and too many of the jobs he was responsible for creating were in China, concomitant with destroying jobs in the US.
As far as his taxes go, his dad made 12 years public; Mitt has only shown one year. If he really expects any of us 99%ers to vote for him, he's gotta be out of his mind if he thinks we're stupid enough, or are just so apathetic and don't care, that we'll trust him to have America's and We the People's well-being as his 1st priority, unless he makes all of his (and Ann's) tax returns public starting with the first year he started working at Bain Capital. all the way to the present (since he's still getting unearned income from Bain Capital).
Romney had better be able to show us that he has invested in America, and that he hasn't used accountants to navigate the tax code, so as to be a free-riding cheapskate to such an extent that it is immoral.
I know Romney can't satisfy the demands I've stipulated, and that even if he could, he still wouldn't get my vote. What disappoints me the most, I suppose, is that the Republican Primary process did a very inadequate job of vetting Romney, considering that he appears to be an Economic Traitor!
@xxx ooo
Are you suggesting that Robme "outsourced" the conception of his children? lol
Actually... I think that is one job Mutt probably did himself.
@India
So it's agreed then. We will all self-deport to Canada if Robme is elected. Maybe we can set up a progressive commune where we do all of that socialist stuff.
By the way, is Canada not having global warming?
@Cosmic Chuck
Well.. that leaves me out then. My grip isn't as strong since arthritis set in. I'll be one of the first to fly off the roof of the Robme car.
Scully. What a good question: Is Canada having global warming?
I don't know, can anyone tell us?
@India
I was just wondering, since you were considering moving to Canada due to the heat. Of course, I bet the Canadian's are having more horrendous and extreme winters even if their summers are mild.
Our here in California, even though I'm in one of the typically hottest parts of the state, the central valley... I've been a bit surprised that we are having pretty mild temps compared to last summer at this time.
Last year on July 4th, we had a power outage due to the hot temps and too many people using air conditioning. This July 4th, the temps have barely reached the low 80s with quite a bit of cooling in the evenings... so it's been quite nice.
If he wants to be President, he should not have secrets.
He is the one who can send Nixon to heaven, finally. God always asks people to comment about president, and now we can say that compared to Romney Nixon was an angel. That qualifies him (Nixon) to go to Heaven.
then Obama should release his college records he should not have secrets
For openers, he has his millions in offshore accounts in about five countries. It's not only secretive, the USA can't collect revenue from those accounts. How patriotic is that? He wants to keep from paying taxes. That helps HIM, not his country!
I don't like the man. I don't like draft dodgers or people who hide their money offshore to avoid taxes. If the middle class, like me, has to pay at a high rate, why should the man running for president, a multi-millionaire, be exempt from paying his share by stashing it offshore.
Don't you know? Mittens is "entitled". Taxes are for all of you little people.
TRF...........that is the weirdest request! College records? For what? His grades? Apparently he passed because he got his diploma!
There is no equation to current bank accounts of Mean Mitt Romney! Romney's tax returns in full for the past ten years would be good. We have President Obama's.........
Wonder what Romney is planning on submitting for finances and how it will be reported on Opensecrets.org...............
Obama/Biden 2012
#2.4 That seems to be his thinking. Indeed, it seems to be the thinking of the entire T-party controlled GOP! They're entitled. We're not.
November can cure that thinking.
@TMom
I agree... Robme should not have secrets about his hidden finances, tax dodging and certainly not the secret policies he'll only discuss after he gets elected... if he wants to be President.
His father George knew that and even went to the extent of releasing numerous years of tax returns before it was traditional. It's too bad Mutt's father failed to teach his son honesty and ethical behavior of the same kind.
Daddy George also had the guts to stand up to the right wing nuts and bigots in the GOP at the time like the John Birch society, etc. Another lesson that apparently Mutt missed along the way.
@TRF
Well let's see how many reasons there are for making that a really stupid, not to mention bigoted question.
1. Obama graduated Magna cum Laude which means his grades had to be up there really high in the first place.
2. Obama was also the President of the Harvard Law review which also requires very high grades.
3. We never required any white President to release their grades, not even GW Moron, the first idiot President.... even though admitted himself that he wasn't a good student and made barely passing grades.
4. Chances are those passing grades were awarded to Georgie boy because his Daddy Bush made a big donation to the university.
5. Not to mention that the only reason Georgie got into Yale was because he was a legacy student whose rich and influential family had previously attended and given lots of money to the institution.
6. Of course, Barack Obama had no rich father to pay for his grades or even his acceptance into any university, which means that Obama had to get in on his own merits and his own abilities.
7. Of course, one of the comebacks of right wing idiots and morons is always... Obama got into the university because of "affirmative action". This is because the right wing idiots and morons can't believe a black man could possibly be smarter than them.
8. Whether that is true or not in helping Obama get accepted to Harvard.... it does not help him graduate "magna cum laude" nor be made President of the Law review... only Obama's abilities and grades could do that, so I refer you back to #s 1 & 2.
@DemElizabeth
Oh shoot... there was one more reason I forgot to add to the list above for TRF. So....
9. Since the right wing idiots and morons won't believe President Obama's birth certificate is real... they certainly won't accept his college records with straight A average as true.
They will simply proclaim the records are a forgery... right?
Yes... TRF's question is weird, though it's a common one among the right wing idiots and bigots.... which is why it's more stupid and bigoted than anything else.
DScully,
you're absolutely right.
now that President Obama released his birth certificate, they think they have the right to hound him to PRODUCE something else.
die-hard anti-Obama extremists won't believe anything he might "produce" is authentic.
w. bush had his own form of "affirmative action"-HIS DADDY!
i would be much more concerned about what bush was hiding. his grades transcripts that were "leaked" (and i can say the same thing that repubs say about Obama's birth certificate) are obviously a forgery, were DAMAGE CONTROL by bush's dream team. and that isn't saying much.
repubs/baggers/conservatives will keep looking for ways to delegitimize President Obama, to make americans questions what kind of person he really is.
i will repeat here what DScully said above. even though pat buchanan begs to differ, "affirmative action" does not get you "magna cum laude" or "President of the Law Review". only Obama's abilities and grades could do that.
Wheres all this transparency we were promised?
No. Will of people is mighter than someones wealth. Secrecy of Mitt Romney's wealth should not concern anybody because he will outspend President Obama in campaigning, but American people are smart because they will choose President Obama over Mitt Romney.
agree,sen. I don't have a problem with wealthy people ( unless they're running for Pres. and hiding everything). just have a problem with with repubs. in general.
kuv6707, Well said. I have a problem with Republicans, too. They care only for the very wealthy and think the rest of us deserve nothing.
The only thing that's trickled down on me since 2000 is rain or sweat! I don't expect that to change under a corporate raider like Romney. Especially since he wants to go back to the policies that got us into the mess they handed Obama in 2009! Good Lord, you'd have to be nuts to want to follow Romney back there!
I have a huge problem wiith someone running for president who is a tax fraud and a liar. I want his tax records released so we do finally know the complete truth.
Agree, India. Obama has done a lot in his first term. Power to him in his next.
willard is just use to having his own way.
TM, I know he is. Think of the disappointment come the sixth of November!
Poor thing won't be able to take it. Poor Willard. LOL Maybe he'll move to Switzerland where he can visit his money more often!
kv6707 3.1 and others : I agree. Why we should have concern about Mitt Romney's money, we may become concerned in the future whether he is paying taxes or not legitimately. This may become an issue in the future.
Yes, It should all of us weather they can vote or not. TRUTH NOW NOT LATTER!
We don't want Tricky Mittney!
He even said his first name was Mitt, when it was willard. I wonder if he knows which day he was born?
I don't have a problem with wealthy people. It's how they got it, and what their attitude is. Where they invest it or "save" it might be a concern.
Generally hoarding is a mental disorder and needs treatment. Taking money out of the Country only to sit in a bank is un-Patriotic in my opinion. If they have so much money, that is less money for our economy to recover. This hoarding problem that the very wealthiest have gets worse each and every day. This tactic is then used against the President who has no laws to force repatriation. Growing the economy is *not* going to be achieved by giving more to those who have so much that they feel a need to hide it.
I still keep asking "When is way, way, way more than evough not enough?"
Larry74, How he got it isn't anything to brag about either.
So true.
Some people get rich by starting a business, working hard & doing their very best work. They wake up 1 day & realize they R rich.
Mitt set out become rich, by any means necessary. That means on the backs of middle class people & the working poor. Then turn around & fire them!!! Mitt sent their jobs overseas & did whatever it takes 2 pay less taxes & make more money.
Did anybody besides Romney get rich from his method of getting wealthy?
No. We don't even reap the revenue from his hidden wealth! It sure didn't create jobs! Well, maybe for Swiss bankers!
& 4 China & India.
@Phyllis
Not only did Robme get rich by taking over corporations, firing the workers and outsourcing those jobs.... first he would run up the company's debts and take taxpayer subsidies ment to help those companies. Then he would bankrupt the company and leave with the tax payer money given to the corps, along with any of the pensions the workers had paid into. So he really knew how to work the system to his advantage, his millions were obtained by stealing from both the workers and the taxpayers in general... then hiding that money in off shore accounts to avoid paying taxes on it.
The GOP always scream about ordinary middle class and working poor taking meager assistance in the way of unemployment or medicaid, yet they certainly don't object at all to rich oil companies taking subsidies or corporate raiders like Robme profiting from taxpayer subsidies that they then pocket and walk away with leaving behind the ruined companies the money was meant to help.
People who did what Robme made his millions are used to be called Swindlers... the GOP just made it legal and call it Capitalism and the free market.
Robme = Swindler
Scully, I think we can still call these people swindlers! Romney, King of the swindlers!
@India
Most definitely.... the Repugs are SWINDLERS AND ROBME IS THE HEAD SWINDLER... though they like to call themselves CAPITALISTS.
GOP=Robme=CAPITALISTS=SWINDLERS
What about the secrecy surrounding Obama?
There's no secrecy surrounding you.
That is the great thing about Obama, he dosen't seem to think it necessary to keep secrets about himself. He even lets us look at his income tax returns in full and isn't hiding money in another country. Why can't willard just do that. Every time we find out one of his secrets, it just makes him look like the liar he is.
I guess that was Billie's best shot. That's OK, Billie...at least you tried.
The RePuppies have done everything they can 2 sniff around & find some secret on President Obama.
I bet they would even have the carpet in the Oval Office pulled up, if they could.
@Billy - Obama released over 8 years of his tax returns in 2008, when he was a candidate for the presidency. He doesn't have a single offshore bank account or investment.
Don't be lazy, read this article in its entirety:
http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/2012/08/investigating-mitt-romney-offshore-accounts
Billy
President Obama has written a couple of very revealing books about himself, his life including his family history, etc. All of your questions will be answered.
And they are very honest books. They contain information you conservatives like to use for ammo. He doesn't tell lies. Have you read romney's books.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Yes it concerns me.
It concerns me enough not 2 vote 4 him.
I think I probably will vote for Obama, too. Yeah.
President Obama is the only way 2 go. ~~ Obama/Biden ~~ ( 2012 )
Looks like a job for The DONALD!
How about this from the National park service, xxx.
Theodore Roosevelt National Park, North Dakota
Long before Theodore Roosevelt became America's 26th president, he spent years as a rancher in the rugged lands that would later become the national park that bears his name. He grew a strong attachment to the landscape, and now the park's three distinct units cover some 70,000 acres of badlands, prairies, and forests abundant with plants and wildlife. But the area is also experiencing a new threat unknown in Roosevelt's day: an alarming rate of new oil and gas fracking operations in the region.
People here are starting to awake, And I ringing the dam bell!
LOL!!!
Yes I'm very concerned. I would very much like to know what else he's hiding. Needs to be totally upfront and honest. OBAMA 2012.
Well, Billie if he was upfront and honest, he might have a chance to win the election but as it is he just looks like a liar.
then does not releasing your college records that many have asked to see makes Obama look like a liar
Here he goes again after being told 3 times on 3 different topics that is nonsense from Fox fake outrage station. Obama did not seal his records that is the law. No matter how many times you repeat the lie it will never turn into truth, its still a lie.
Why in God's name are you guys so laser focused on his grades?? George Bush was dumb as an ox and he got elected TWICE! And I know Obama is a Hell of a lot smarter than George Bush. Get a new topic.
Why Obama's grades might show Obama isn't a US citizen of course. They believe Obama's school records will prove the birther bull@!$%#. Ignore the State but gosh darn it Harvard won't lie to them like the State of Hi did.
MJB,
Correction. The Supreme Court Elected George Bush without a Full Re-count 4 Baby Bush's 1st term.
Baby Bush flat foot stole his 2nd term.
Right you are Phyllis. What I should have said was he became President after going through the motions of an election and was annointed by the Supreme Court to the highest office in the land, but was still dumb as an ox. :)
TRFjr
then does not releasing your college records that many have asked to see makes Obama look like a liar
#8.2 - Thu Jul 5, 2012 7:16 PM CDT
TRF~~Only in the eyes of a liar!
Billie, I hope you know that the remark to Billy was a misspell. I spelled it Billie by accident.
Honestly, my cat is making it hard for me to type. He's got to go to the bedroom for a while! He keeps jumping on the computer!
MJB post # 8.7,
ROTFL!!!
@TRF
Well let's see how many reasons there are for making that a really stupid, not to mention bigoted question.
1. Obama graduated Magna cum Laude which means his grades had to be up there really high in the first place.
2. Obama was also the President of the Harvard Law review which also requires very high grades.

9. Since the right wing idiots and morons won't believe President Obama's birth certificate is real... they certainly won't accept his college records with straight A average as true.
By the way, has Mutt Robme released HIS COLLEGE RECORDS? We certainly haven't seen his TAX RECORDS... which President Obama has willingly released going back 8 or more years. Even Mutt's daddy George released 11 or 12 years of tax returns, so what is Mutt's problem? Too many tax shelters and off shore accounts he's trying to hide? Not enough of paying HIS FAIR SHARE TO THE COUNTRY HE CLAIMS TO LOVE and from which he got his wealth using Vulture capitalist and swindler tactics?
It should matter to everyone that the man that could become President may be hiding secrets. I'm not worried about it because I'm voting for President Obama, but if anyone is still undecided, yes, they should be concerned about the Mittster.
Yes, the Mittster has a very lugubrious and mysterious financial history. Making money at all cost was his motto at Bain capital. I still can't believe that, when he was governor of MA, he had the audacity to outsource states jobs to India and China.
http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/2012/08/investigating-mitt-romney-offshore-accounts
Yes: Bernie Madoff was very secretive also.
It's American to make money. Nobody has a problem with that, it's the money off shore hidden in loopholes that are disturbing. Here is a man that wants the most prestige position in our country, and he cheats on his taxes. Not cheating? Then why not produce all the tax reports like Obama.
And why is it I keep reading he's only shown his 2010 tax returns? Where are the reports on his 2011 returns?
They haven't got the rest of them doctored enough yet.
Ohhhh! Got it.
LOL!
Assuming for example that the outsourcer-in-chief, Mitt Rmoney, is appointed Secretary of State in the government. Would he keep secret his financial records and multi-year tax returns to Congress and still get approved to that position by the latter? Absolutely NOT. But, he wants the American people to appoint him POTUS, no matter the web of secrecy he has surrounded his financial record with.
Mr. Rmoney, the American people need to know, before November 6th, what you are hiding in those financial records.
I don't know if it is so much secrecy, but to me it's just unpatriotic. Mittster is always saying how much he loves this country ---- well if you LOVE it, then keep your money here, invest in this country, not in the Bahamas, or Switzerland or only God knows where else. The republicans are always flag-waving, yet I don't see anything of them denouncing Romney's offshore accounts as they would be if it were a Democrat.
And you won't ever see that Rose . Because it's O.K. if the Republicans do it. They can do anything THEY want, but WE have to behave ourselves. :)
Yes, as Rachel Maddow has said "IOKIYAR -- It's okay if you're a republican."
Every time MUTT opens his mouth he lies. But I would still like to hear what MUTT is hiding, then maybe the tea nuts will get a clue of what a liar MUTT really is.
Doubt it, Billie, their ability to reason is gone. They'll believe what FAUX News tells them to believe.
There's something sinister about Romney, I just can't quite put my finger on it!
Romney is as phony as a three dollar bill! This man has no integrity, and no shame! Why is Romney's mendacity not being challenged by the media? Why is he being given a free pass to continue to lie about everything?
How could his IRA be valued overa million and a half dollars, when he's only allowed to put in about 30 thousand a year? Are you or I allowed to put more than Romney in our IRA's? NO! Romney is hiding something from the IRS and the government! He's up to no good, why else would he not want to reveal his income tax returns to Americans?
YES! Romney=Wealthy, Un-American, Crook
Romney is as wrong as 2 left shoes. Anybody that don't care about the lies he tells or can't remember what he lied about is a crooked crook.
Roman,#14, I totally agree with your evaluation of him: sinister is spot on!
He is a very strange man.
People have a right to know where their leaders get and keep their money. Mr. Romney's hiding only heightens our belief that he has something to hide.
Shosh, I agree about hiding things leading to suspicion. I am still awaiting to see Obama's College Transcripts and more importantly his Thesis and College writings. What is he hiding? If Romney was hiding any illegal activity I am confiendt Holder would be prosecuting him.
Those college transcripts would really affect his presidency.
It's obvious Columbia and Harvard were both in on the conspiracy to hide the truth about Obama's TRUEl academic achievements.
Any fool could tell you THAT's the real story ! Geez.
2ez4u2c2: Dreams from My Father, The Audacity of Hope, Of Thee I Sing, Barack Obama in His Own Words, Change We Can Believe In, thats what was in his Thesis and College writings. i'm sure his transcripts shows grades good enough to attend Harvard...
They think Obama's records are sealed to hide he isn't a US citizen because the insane Russian woman says the evidence is hidden in his school records. It is a classic example of mass delusions.
How can U get 2B the President of the Harvard Law Review & be a dummy or failure @ the same time?
I wouldn't care if President Obama failed flat on his face @ Harvard. He is President of these United States of America. & might I add, he is doing a dern good job.
Phyllis, One cannot get a scholarship to Harvard by being a bad student. One cannot be a bad student at Harvard and head the Law Review at Harvard.
Ain't gonna happen. I'm sure his grades were fine. He didn't get in and stay in because his daddy was rich and went there, like some others we could name.
India,
U got that right.
Anyone running for US President should be required by law to invest their funds in the US and pay 21% like I do. R'Money has something to hide.....................
ditto Annierae
You don't find Obama hiding his money in foreign banks, do you? What hell they would have raised if he had.
I don't have any to hid, but I would only go to a foreign country if I thought my own country might fail. Is willard planning on that?
He was hiding this.
http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2012/07/romney-invested-in-a-fetus-disposal-company.html
For someone who wasn't involved at all in the Stericycle investment, Romney's name sure shows up on a lot of Stericycle-related documents! Because back in 1999, there would have been no reason for Romney to not invest in the fetus-disposal industry. After all, abortion is legal, aborted fetuses exist, and whatever Stericycle does with them — turns them into bicycles, we're guessing? — is probably better than tossing them in a dump somewhere. Plus, Romney was a pro-choice, soon-to-be governor of Massachusetts, where the state motto is literally "Abortions: Ain't Nothin' Wrong With That!" He was probably focused more on the millions upon millions of dollars the investment would net him, and not how awkward it would make life for New Mitt. But Old Mitt had a way of being selfish like that.
Exactly. Mitt Rmoney cared only about making money at all cost, no matter how it was made.
He is hiding a vast amount of money in Swiss bank accounts, and in off-shore accounts.
If he is hiding his money from disclosure, what else is he hiding from the American people?
Edward Darrah, The facts about his religion. Go to U-Tube and listen to THE GOD MAKERS. Here's the link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87Mr0TqrEf8
The media should not allow Mitt to hide in this veil of secrecy. It's not acceptable to allow him to change his position on everything and it's time to insist on some answers. I noticed his interview saying that the fee for health care in Massachusetts was different from the tax/penalty that is associated with the AFC that was after he agreed with his campaign manager or was it, I can't keep up. Show us your tax returns.
Does the secrecy surrounding Obama's college records concern you
NO. Should it? Did he get accepted on Affirmative Action? Was he born in the U.S.? Or are the GOP still mad about the AFC Act ruling?
Where is Mitts tax returns?
They apparently affect you. Are you afraid he's smarter than you?
You cant demand Romney to release everything you ask him to and then say he is hiding something if he doesn't, but then protect Obama from hiding his records and say he isn't hiding anything. Its called being a hypocrite and you liberals are masters of it

Wrong again no one asked Mittens for his school records though class mates ratted him out for being the piece of @!$%# he is, but no one cares about Mittens school records. Now Obama has released his tax records why hasn't Mittens. Come on put up or shut up time.
Just a dog with a bone. And now he can't let go or he looks foolish.
Rush Limpballs mother said he flunked at everything he tried. Why couldn't he have flunked at this one last thing??!! Now he's found a way to make a ton of money while being unbelievably stupid!
TRF~~You are not only a hypocrit, but you may also be a racist. Why do you radicals think President Obama should have to show his birth certificate, school records, how old was he when he had his first hair cut, where did he get his first pair of shoes and what color were they, was his first ice cream cone, chocolate or vanilla. President Obama, like every other presidential candidate has shown their tax record. Why should Romney deny his tax information from the people and why do you defend him for denying the people that info. Is it due to the fact that he has much more wealth than any presidential candidate has ever had? Or is it due to the fact that he just thinks he is above showing his tax-paying bosses, (that's us, we the people), just how much wealth he has and were he has it stashed (tax free). He damn sure did not earn all of that wealth, there was dis-honesty involved!
Hi MJB !!
It's not hard to learn with no ethics that Lush could incite the angry, white man. Stupid bigots are easy to lead. Mr. Buttboil and his trophy wives, who don't live with him, fool his ignorant minions.
Hi GreatGran!
Why don't the r/tp's ask that Willard show his transcipts too? Fair is fair.
Grover Norquist said he just wants his Republican Prez to have enough digits to hold a pen and sign all those bills that will be so beneficial to the poor and middle class. I just threw that last part in. But I'm sure that was what he was thinking. :)
