This is pure nonsense from Harry Reids despicable little mouth. First of all do you really think someone like Romney with grandiose political ambitions for years would not pay taxes for 10 years knowing it would be disclosed? Do you really think a Bain Capitol investor has any clue what Romneys personal tax return looks like? Reids lieing. He reminds me of Joe McCarthy. And by the way, Reid has refused to ever provide his tax returns in all his years in the senate. Why do you suppose that is? The dems go from one wild acusation to another with no hint of any proof. Their only purpose is try to leave some stink on Romney. Tell enough lies often enough and people too dumb to read or think will believe some of them. That's the whole re-election strategy cause they sure as hell can't run on obamas record. So if you can't run on your record you gotta kill the other guy. That's the Chicago way. I'm not a big fan of Romney but this ship is floundering and about to hit the rocks. I don't think the country can survive another 4 years of Obama.
I'm also pretty sure that David Axlerod is planning an October surprise, probably some military action against Iran. Not his area you say? It most certainly is. Wag the dog, rally around the flag for the ol commander in chief acting presidential. All we need is Spielberg doing the directing and choreography for the first 150 cruise missles and bunker busters to fall on Iran. It's a wrap.

Got to agree with you coalkirk it's a waste of time to worry about a wild accusation, I can however see how these old sayings come about like "what goes around comes around".

Mitt Romney will not produce more than the last 2 years tax returns because he knows that most likely he is going to lose his bid for the presidency, and after he loses, he may have to explain his tax situation to the I.R.S, where the response of "MAYBE" will not cut it. he may trade in his car elevator equipped home for a 6 x 6 cell will no elevator.

Mitt Romney, even if guilty, would be shown the same "pardon" as Obama's friends Eric Holder, Jon Corzine or Tim Geithner. Oligarchs rarely eat their own.

I hate to break this to you homecomfort, but the IRS already has Romneys tax returns. Not exactly a slueth, are you?

Agreed! If he had not filed for years he would be behind bars right now rather than running for President.

Tim Geithner didn't pay his taxes and he's Treasury Secretary.

Why would Mitt be treated differently?

Good point!

I believe Geithner claimed ignorance of the law that requires US Citizens to pay income tax on foreign earnings. I always thought that ignorance of the law was no excuse.

Did you know that only North Korea and the United States tax your income if you live and work in a foreign country? The only way to avoid this is to renounce US Citizenship.

Anyone that thinks Romney didn't pay any taxes for ten years needs their head examined.

I'm sure he paid some.

Likely it was on the order of Warren "My cleaning lady pays more taxes than I do" Buffet.

Neither one has a "job" to tax income so the only taxes they pay are 15% on capital gains.

And we know Mitt has several offshore accounts so I'm guessing his 15% doesn't amount to much.

I say, more power to him. More people should try to protect their money rather that brainlessly give it to the federal government to use against them.

Heck yes, I don't mind paying more so that the people at the top don't have to pay their share. I guess the only reason they have to pay any at all is to set up a smoke screen & make everyone feel bad for them for paying so much tax, give me that hidden money & I'd gladly pay the full amount of tax minus loopholes & I would even bank & invest in my own country.

if romney is elected, he will be setting tax policy. so legal or not, for you less than super rich folks, and I am sure that is most of you, it is fine for you middle class tax payers to pay triple the "rate" than your rich master. funny how limited some peoples minds are when it comes to independent thinking.
