If Mitt is not "ashamed of his success" why is he hiding his tax returns?

[K8-EEE]

Are they not documents to his "being successful?" So he should be PROUD to show them! Right?

What needs to be asked EVERY FUCKING DAY is this: WHY IS MITT ROMNEY HIDING HIS TAX RETURNS. Obviously everyone KNOWS he's mega-rich and paid a lower tax rate because of it.....soooo....there must be something ELSE going on.

[Justice wanted]

1. Maybe he has his own version of "Big Love" going on and if he released all his tax records someone

will figure it out?

[Meiko]

2. I wasn't aware

he was hiding them. Do you have a link or is this just your belief/observation.

[sybylla]

5. It's been all over the news that the Rmoney's have filed an extension

They won't be releasing their tax returns to the public until they are filed, which could be any time, but likely won't be until September or possibly as late as October in some reports.

6. Thank you

I have a new puppy and I can tell you I have been so busy I barely have time to come here and read.Thanks again.

9. In addition, he won't release any earlier than 2010.

He released his 2010, hasn't filed his 2011, and won't release any earlier ones.

In contrast, the Obamas have released 12 years of returns.

The supposition is that if Romney won't release any earlier returns, there must be some really bad things in 'em.

[K8-EEE]

10. His DAD made a big deal out of putting out 12 years of tax returns but Mitt won't do it

Some of the things it could be: that during the BushCo war years he parked a ton of money some foreign place and paid zero taxes during War On Terra?

OR -- 50 Swiss Bank accounts...

OR OR OR -- his 2009 returns listed his primary residence as NOT Massachusetts. In 2010 he voted for Scott Brown there, even though he sold his mansion there in 2009. He listed his kids' basement as his primary residence. If he listed ID or CA or NH homes as primary in 2009 HE'S BUSTED FOR VOTER FRAUD!

11. Just remember to read the paper BEFORE the puppy pees on it.

3. Someone said the other day

That maybe by exposing his tax returns, we will see that he wasn't "living" in his son's basement when he voted, so he could be charged with voter fraud.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

7. 2008 and 2009 is what he's really trying to hide. What voting year does

the living in sons basement incident apply to? Hopefully someone can seek out the truth
on that without returns.

Supposedly Romney gave McCain financial records for 1984-2007. Guess those are sealed?
Maybe McCain's holding them ransom for something.

Nevertheless, what's truly a mystery is the returns for 2008 and 2009.

[K8-EEE]

13. Because, he sold his Mass house in 2009 so

If on his 2010 he said kids' basement was his residence -- but 2009 he said it was ID or CA, IT LOOKS LIKE BULLSHIT! AND VOTER FRAUD!

Like, he moved from Mass to CA BACK TO MASS TO THE BASEMENT TO VOTE FOR SCOTT BROWN back to CA?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

16. I just hate that this has been buried away. Wonder how we could resurrect this issue and

bring it to the forefront. Maybe he could bs his way thru it in the primary, but prez?

[Sherman A1]

4. A very good question

and one that needs to be repeated over & over.

[WI_DEM]

8. Good point! Obama campaign should be saying that daily.

[Mc Mike]

12. He's just being modest. +1, NT.

[treestar]

14. Maybe they show his "success"

was being born to the right people.

[polichick]

15. Dems should keep this front and center - Romney should be ashamed...

...but Republicans seem to be shameless.

[ellisonz]

17. Criminal tax evasion. n/t

[GoCubsGo]

18. Yep. It's not shame that's keeping him from making his returns public.

It's fear of getting caught. Like most people of his ilk, I don't think Mitt is capable of feeling shame.

[Drsdman]

19. He probably has not been tithing

Releasing multiple years would reveal to his church and to the public that he is not so pious, afterall.

[BanTheGOP]

20. He should be at least as accountable as Tim Geitner

This is why I ***HATE**** rich people who have republicanist tendencies. NO person is worth more than ten million dollars, and should be repatriated of all his money. This is appaling, and this is why most people who have been rethugs all their life are finally seeing the light and seeing the party for what it is: an organization whose activity DWARFS every criminal organization in history. And even though Treasury Secretary Geitner fudged a couple of lines on his tax returns himself, at LEAST he's not a republicanist who wants to ensure nobody pays any taxes like the republican philosophy.
