Perhaps Romney just doesn't want his church to know how much he made as the Mormon church levies a 10% tithe (tax) on the members so if he told them or paid them less than the 10% of what he made, then he would be in trouble with them so the less they know, the better for him and his family.


That was G.W. Bush's reason for wanting to keep "rendition" a secret from the American publiic ....

If he did, congrats Gov. That's exactly what I have done for the last 10 years also. It's a non-issue. 50% of the population of the US pays no income tax!!


If true, it is because thay have been pushed into poverty, by the greed of the American Aristocracy..

I am not a believer in the policies of Obama, but I try to read as much as I can about both candidates. I just finished reading an article on Factcheck.org about Obama and his school records. I did not find anything related to Romney and his taxes, but I did submit a question about that. Check out the site and see what you think.

By the way, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY!

Perhaps Romney will show his tax returns when obama shows his school records (which he spent ~one million to keep hidden). What is good for the goose is good for the gander.

It's only an issue because the Democratic powers that be have made it one to divert any possible negative attention off. Of Obama...As for his father having released 10 years of returns, his father wasn't running for President, so that 's a moot point

It would be in his best interest to get this issue out of the way. Look at where he is today. He's toured Europe and Israel and gaffs aside it seemed to go okay. But what are we still talking about? Tax returns. He can put an end to this or it will haunt him to the end. He can't change the news cycle until he puts an end to this one.

How hypocritical can you be. Here you go talking about Reid's education in respect to him being called an idiot yet you've lambasted Bush as an idiot when he also graduated from Yale & Harvard....Who looks like an idiot now ?

Maybe that explains why we'll never see his tax returns.
Either way Governor - This issue ain't going away.

Can what be true? That Harry Reid is a idiot? Yes that is certainly true..

That Romney paid no taxes? Highly unlikely!


So ... Harry Reid is an idiot .... he graduated Utah State University .... in 2010 rated by Forbes as the number one public university in the U.S.... he graduated George Washington University Law .... one of the top law schools in the nation .... so he is an idiot ... where did you do your undergraduate and post graduate work .... maybe that would give us a hint as to who is the idiot ...

I guess Pelosi & Reid are living in poverty as well since they won't release their records for us to see....By law, the presidential contenders are only required to release 2 years of returns, which he has. This proves that it's simply a Democratic ploy to divert attention away from Obama 's shortcomings, not a real issue.

During the Cheney Presidency, George did a lot of things that were il-advised. Was he an idiot? Probably not, but he certainly had challenges with public speaking and leadership.

As long as Rommey's actions were legal, it makes no difference how much taxes he paid. The government sets the rules and we all should live withing the rules.

There are many questions relative to Obama's actions being legal. Many of us would like a leader who is honest. In addition, we know that Obama has failed to run the government. We need a good manager.

George Romney did not release 10 years of his tax returns....

He released 12 years worth of his tax returns!

Zman,
That's quite a statement, "There are many questions relative to Obama's actions being legal."
Would you care to extrapolate on that or are you just making stuff up?
