It is. It's a 104 page document. If that's just a "summary", I wonder what the full return would look like.
Don't play dumb. It is one year, a year he already said he would release. What the other candidates have done is several years. And for the year he did just release, it is now clear that he engineered his payment to be more than he owed so he could avoid the criticism that the 47% of us who are moochers actually pay more of our income to the Feds than Romney does. His real tax rate would be 9% had he taken all this deductions. He will be able to amend his returns later to get his money back. Nice guy.
In 2011, Romney and his wife, Ann, reported $13.7 million in income, mostly investments, and their tax rate was 14.1%, or $1.9 million. The couple donated $4 million to charity, but didn’t take the full deduction to remain true to a Romney statement in August that he paid at least 13% in taxes in recent years...Source
Who cares? Only God knows the hearts of men. If you're measuring by money you've already lost.

True. We should not even be worried about how these men spend their own money. We should look at how they spend other's when it will not affect their own lives. That is what is most important for our country.
UNBELIEVABLE. It is NOT a summary. It shows his entire return.
Goes to show you lefties don't even know how to read a tax return. They must be looking at the top where it is just a summary. Scroll down just a tiny bit and you see the entire return.
Summaries? Where's the proof. Let's see the 1040's. What is he hiding anyway?

Ummmmm.......nothing "dumb" about calling out the libs who insist the released 1040 was just a "summary" when it is the complete return.
On the other hand.......your post really IS dumb as this thread--and my post--is about the 1040 Romney released today. Pitiful deflection attempt on your part.

I don't want his whiny wife. All I want to see is whether Mitt took a deal to avoid prosecution for felony tax evasion.
[/list]Hmmmm......the Romneys claimed only a little more than half in charitable deductions than they were legally entitled to. Can hardly wait to see how the libs will spin that one.

Releasing his 2011 return is meaningless. After the election this fall, Romney can file an amended return and get that tax rate down to 9% where it should be with all the charitable deductions he is entitled to take according to the law. (Yes, that's Romney and entitlement together - go figure.)
If Romney was honest (hint: he's not), he would release his 2009 return, and 2008 return, and 2007 return, etc. ... returns he can't go back and amend.
What's he hiding in those unreleased tax returns?
