What's up with Hillary's tax returns?

[RiverStone]

Obama supporter Jamal Simmons expressed on Larry King tonight a concern regarding Hillary saying she will not release her tax returns until after the primaries are over.

2 questions:

Has Obama released his tax returns?

Why would Hillary NOT release hers?

Thanks :hi:

1. I don't think Bill Clinton ever relased his either

2. Hillary is hiding them. They will reveal she & Bill have made $70 mil since 9/11 & from dirty pals

3. Yes, and don't know

But really - before posting this, why not hit google and type in 'obama tax return'? It's the first link that comes up.

I'm constantly surprised that people here on DU seem to expect others to provide links and so on all the time. You can get the answer from google or other search engines in less time than it takes to ask the question on DU.

Meantime, here it is:

As for Hillary Clinton's not wanting to release her tax return until after the primaries, well who can say.

5. Thanks for the link!

And anigbrowl, I know how to use Google - but you (and others) prove time and time again to be a BETTER resource than Google.

I am constantly reminded that on DU chills a very diverse and wide range of expertise and experiences. We are mostly political junkies after all, and enjoy being questioned about what we know.

Consider your immediate and pertinent response to my question as a compliment.

Even faster than Google! :hi:

Thats DU :)

...at least when it comes to politics, I go to you first.

And BTW, no worries - if we are talking sports trivia - I'll Google!!!

8. I agree. When searching for political info ...

DUers beat Google EVERY time! Links, photos, video, multiple sources ... all provided within 5 minutes of posting a question.

I love Google, but when it comes to politics, "DUgle" rules! :hi:

12. They already know the answer

they like posing the question as an accusation.

10. Obama released him as was discussed but Hillary said that she

will only release hers after she gets the nomination. That means its fine with her that GOP looks at it before the GE but dems cant see it before they make a final decision.

There is no justification for it and it can only mean she knows that there is something negative in there that she doesn't want us to see.
