Here comes the birthers in 3,2,1...

Obama's high school transcripts blah blah blah...
who cares, it is over? let it rest for heavens sake....

Why are conservatives so upset that their most recent nominee is being asked to provide details he refused to provide prior to his crushing defeat. I'd like to know what his financial details would have been, you know the details he explicitly stated he would not provide until after the election. Wouldn't that be helpful?

Man, the GOP throws out it's trash quickly. I guess Mitt will go the way of Bush 41 and 43, Bob Dole, John McCain, on the scrap heep of ex-republican leaders never to be mentioned again. I mean literally, these dudes don't get invites to anything, not even a whisper of their names. Oh well, I'm glad the pile just keeps getting bigger.

I have wondered why they are so anxious to throw away their ex-leaders. Yes, they were flawed - as are we all but . . I don't think it's fair to blame the loss of the election soley on Romney.

He had to dance to the right during their primary then try to do-si-do back to the middle during the general ~ it wasn't all Mitt's fault. And they are throwing him to the wolves. Not crazy about that mentality.

Obama must be the wolf then, because he invited Willard to the White House for a meeting this Thursday.

Four years ago this country was on the verge of financial ruins. You are telling me today is not better than 2007/2008? That Fox bubble is getting bigger.

Not upset, it is over, why would anyone really care and what purpose would it serve? BTW your sencond paragraph has nothing to do with tax records or the OPs question. and what do you mean invites to anything? I think Bush one is past the invite state, Bush 2 has no desire to stay in the public eye, Dole is, like Bush one, past his prime and John McCain is still a very active Senator or have you not noticed? What do we hear about Dukakis, Gore, (except for what he tells us about his latest invention) or Edwards? Are you now running a social sec network, where you keep track of who is invited to what?
