A thought on releasing tax returns

The major sticking point nonetheless. We wanna see his itemized investments, and how many of those are American.

Who is "we"?  The Democrats?  Because you think he should provide ammo so you can embarrass him?

We The People who are entitled to see for ourselves, as in Right to Know, as encoded in our laws, as in, we have a right to know what he's trying so hard, bending over backwards  to hide.

Outside of that 1% is the rest of the United States.

Actually, no, you don't have a RIGHT to know anything about them.

It's the law. Get used to it.

Mitt would not make a pimple on his fathers butt.

George Romney walked out on the 1964 convention to protest GOP radicalism. His son would never do the same. Romney's father released 12 years of tax returns when he ran for office stating the necessity of transparency. kentay

Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, the Republican Presidential nominee, is deep into the process of vetting potential Vice Presidential running mates.

I'm willing to wager a substantial sum with kentay, or anyone else, that Mitt Romney NEVAH faces an IRS enforcement action relating to his income taxes.

I also think it's worth noting that even talkingpointsmemo had to admit that Dingy Harry was completely full of crap in making his unsubstantiated charges.  If a Republican had ever directed anything like that at, say, Ted Kennedy or The Pompous Windbag, all hell would have broken loose.  This, of course, is different.

Finally, congratulations to kentay for using his daily visit to respond to ONE thread not of his own making.  Way to go, Big Guy!

Doesn't matter what's not legally actionable about his returns. We wanna know what it is that he finds so important to hide from public eyes.

"We" wanna know what ammo he might throw "our" way to make pro-O adverts.

What's the law?  That Republican candidates must run a gauntlet from which Democrats are spared?
