Your response should be ~
NO other President has been forced to show their birth certificate... and now they want his college transcripts.
When they say - we travel all over the country and no one is talking about Romney's taxes except those of the left.
Your response should be when the Obama campaign travels all over the country - no one is talking about his birth certificate except those on the extreme right.

But... I have to partially blame the Obama campaign for this. Joe often chooses the wrong word, and they throw him under the bus whenever he does instead of reiterating what Biden was saying. They have tightened up the leash on Joe and that is a big big mistake, imho.

(3,336 posts)There is a lot of room for error and/or apparently worse associated with a number like that. Look if a candidate made 100K a year few would care.

(19,458 posts)That's what blows me away about this 'whateverah' attitude by some in the media. These were the same people that were calling him out in January, for not releasing them!! It was a "thing" in the primaries, when they did NOT defend Mitt when the other primary candidates were attacking him on this.

And this was Romney in early 2011: "EVANS: Governor, you will plan then to release your income tax records around April?
ROMNEY: I think Ive heard enough from folks saying, look, lets see your tax records. I have nothing in them that suggests theres any problem and Im happy to do so. I sort of feel like we are showing a lot of exposure at this point. And if I become our nominee, and whats happened in history is people have released them in about April of the coming year and thats probably what I would do."
April has come and gone, bozo.
