Name calling is for elementary school........................
Rather ironic post, considering the title of this thread.

Either both sides show all or they need to shut up and stop accusing each other of "hiding things".

Typical birthers, equating college records and birth certificates (which, incidentally, President Obama produced over four years ago now) with Romney's tax returns, because apparently Obama's grades 25 years ago are equally important to the American voters as Romney's financial records. That's an argument that anyone with a brain knows is stupid. Oh, wait, we're talking about birthers...

So just why are Romney's tax records so important for all to see ?

Obama has released his tax returns for 11 years, why can't Romney release his tax returns? I am enjoying how people here are trying to distract by asking for something completely different from Obama....some of us want to compare apples to apples not apples to chairs.

Speaking of stupid, do you have a habit of responding to your own posts?

Oh, and why the hate, brah? I heard that you were brainwashed at a very early age and are simply incapable of thinking about anything for yourself. At least that's what my anonymous source tells me. I don't know if it's true, but that's what he said...

Do you read any of the posts that are on here? The tax returns aren't important they are simply a way to push the unknown and make Romney look bad because that is how politics functions on both sides.

The reason why he should release them is so that he can move on and let them die out in the media. Unless of course there is more damage to his campaigns in his tax returns, but there is only one way to know if that is true.


Also Romney is telling us to "trust me" that his tax returns are fine. If Obama said "trust me" and didn't show proof, would you trust him? Answer that question for me please.

The tax-ers are the new birthers. You guys are hysterical. Do you have any idea how terribly hypocritical AND desperate you look?

Oh, I don't know, maybe because he's basing his entire campaign on how he's this financial wizard who is going to save the country by use of all that amazing financial acumen, but which he refuses to reveal? That doesn't sound a bit like a snake oil salesman to you? "I'm telling you I'm THAT good, but you're going to just have to trust me on this." How gullible are you?

But why is this an issue now ? Because the Dems said it was ?

Say..what if it turns out that Obama was a mediocre student at best with all C+ grades.
The left ripped apart Bush because of his transcripts yet defend Obama for keeping them hidden.

The IRS would have swooped in on Romney if something were hokey with his tax returns.

If the President has nothing better to campaign on then "but he didn't show his tax returns" that's one sad tale.

Too many people are being led off on deflecting issues. Romney's tax returns should not be the sole reason as whether or not you vote for him.

squeaky clean and CEO don't go together, there is nothing squeaky clean about Romney, but he is doing a good job letting Obama tell his story for him.

if Obama didn't release his tax forms and told you to trust him that they were all good, would you trust him? I am guessing you know the answer would be no and you would be demanding he show them to us.

And you are right, Romney isn't obligated to show them, but it looks bad that he doesn't because his own father started that trend and now his own son is turning his back on his father, is that the kind of man you want for president?
