$1.9 million paid in taxes, over 4 million in charitable donations.  I'd say he's paid his fair share.

He paid more than his fair share. I want to see proof that a Dem did that.

Paid a 14.2% effective rate and donated 30% of his income to charities.  Biden paid how much?

Obinga paid how much?

Reid paid how much?

Suck it, a$$holes.......I knew this was coming and I couldn't be happier.

The MSM will focus ONLY on the 14.2%.

Of course, mentioning about giving money to charity will harm obama, since he doesn't give money to charities.

Has Harry Reid, the alleged pederast, weighed in on the release yet?

The pressure is mounting for Harry Reid, the alleged pederast, to come clean, now that Romney has released his tax records.

Plus, he gave his entire inheritance from his dad away to charity.

I never cared for Romney as a politician but as a human being he is top notch in my book. I just wish he would toot his horn more about what he has done in his life such as missionary work, no salary taken as Governor, charitable giving, etc.

Personally, I would like to have seen him wait a couple more weeks to release them, and when the MSM realizes there is "no there there" they'd be left looking like the partisan hacks they are.

It seems to me that they are not at all ashamed to be perceived as partisan hacks. They have become quite shameless about it.

I think that Romney paid more than his fair share and is a very generous person financially and personally. These attacks are ridiculous. I am sick of all the hate from the left. I really hope he wins. Romney. I really do

Now the line is that Romney didn't take the whole deduction for his charitable giving in order to artificially keep his tax rate above 13%.   ::)  And President Obama and VP Biden both paid a higher rate!   ::)   Besides, Romney still wants to keep all the Bush tax cuts...which so favor the 1%.   :thatsright: :mental:

Has anyone in the MSM pointed out that since he didn't take the entire deduction, he paid more than he was legally required to? I guess that's not his fair share, since that's the meme the left is pushing.

0bama goes around running his mouth that he doesn't need that Bush tax cut, yet Romney is the one who paid more than he was legally obligated to.

I guess paying more taxes voluntarily doesn't count in the Dim playbook.  It only counts if you behave like the rich Dims behave...take every possible tax break but still seem compassionate by telling everyone that taxes on the rich should be higher.   :mental:

A claim within the article says that Romney will release TWENTY YEARS of tax returns soon.

Breitbart

Tony Lee

September 21,2012

EXCERPT:

The full returns, along with a notarized letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PWC), the Romney's tax preparer, giving a summary of tax rates from the Romneys’ tax returns for the 20-year period of 1990-2009, will be released at 3 p.m. eastern time.

I think that it was a rare brilliant move by Romney's campaign because it moves the conversation away from the 47% comments that Romney made.

The 47% comment that Romney made brought the other 53% closer to him.

Yeah, but he was ONLY saying that to a small, private group.  Doesnt it make you wonder why he won't say stuff like that in the open?

Why does it have to be secretly recorded?  And further the way in which he handled the fallout was, at best, weak.

That I can't answer. It makes you wonder what obama has said in a private group though, doesn't it?
