That's what the Chicago folks are doing, because it's really the best they can do. Same thing with Obama's college transcripts. By law, they are not required to be released. There are lots of people around who think the reason he won't release that information is because he took student aid under an foreign student program. One would think that's easy to disprove. Just release the college transcripts. But, Obama hasn't done that. Why? Only an uninformed moron would believe that, because student aid information is not part of any college transcript.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

masterblaster72 0 #82 August 20, 2012 Ryan's Taxes Show Gap Between Romney And The Not-So-Rich QuoteThe details of Ryan's taxes, though, seemed less significant than the fact of their release, which let the Obama campaign steer the topic of the day back toward one that has hounded Romney since his Republican rivals hammered on it back in January. During a South Carolina debate back then, Romney was asked if he would release his returns, and he answered, "Maybe," to a chorus of boos. He was reminded then, as the Obama people remind him now, that it was his own father, George Romney, who set the standard for presidential candidates releasing tax returns in the interests of full disclosure. Two weeks after the South Carolina event, at a Florida debate, Romney answered the tax-return question: "I agree with my dad on a lot of things, but we also disagree. ... And going out with 12 years of returns is not something I'm going to do. I'm putting out two years, which is more than anyone else on this stage," he said. "I think it'll satisfy the interests of the American people to see that I pay my taxes, where I give my charitable contributions to, and I think that's the right number." Those two years, though, are less than the three years Romney said he would release in 1994, as he was running against Democratic Sen. Ted Kennedy. "It's time the biggest-taxing senator in Washington shows the people of Massachusetts how much he pays in taxes," Romney said, according to an April 14, 1994, account in The Boston Globe. In that race, Kennedy did not release his tax returns, and neither did Romney. ... In the intervening years since 2008, Obama and Vice President Joe Biden have released four more years of returns, meaning that anyone with an Internet connection can now peruse their income tax returns from a full 12 years. That's the same number that George Romney released in 1968. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

kallend 2,148 #83 September 2, 2012 Quote>Too bad Obama doesn't have much of a record to run on. And too bad Romney has a record the GOP wants to avoid. Romneycare, CEO of Bain while they were laying off people left and right (although he retroactively resigned when he started his campaign), supported abortion then opposed it, supported gay rights then opposed them etc. On the plus side he has held both sides of many positions, so he can pick and choose which position he wants today. Well researched article in Rolling Stone about Bain: www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/greed-and-debt-the-true-story-of-mitt-romney-and-bain-capital-20120829...

masterblaster72 0 #86 September 18, 2012 Quote THIS may explain some of the bizzarro stuff coming from Romney's campaign. Well that was a fun read. It'll be interesting to see what this campaign invents with that massive warchest and lack of ability to make good use of it thus far. I wouldn't be surprised if Rove steps in this mess in the next few weeks to try to save the day. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
