And they want the rest of us -- the truly overtaxed and overworked -- to tell them this is okay.

It isn't.
That crap is plausible only if you're dumber than a box of rocks.

So go for it!

Harry passed on a rumor. By an unnamed source. That would be in violation for releasing that info.

But we all know it's a fishing expedition. That came up empty.
Passing on a rumor is in violation of something? Wow, you would have charge 90% of Repubs and 50% of Dems, if that were true.

Romney is a greedy little man who does nothing but represent his fellow greedy little men. They make money by bribing government officials and raiding pension funds so the rest of us have to work longer and harder. Then they attempt to convince us that the real problem with our society is the mailman earns more than ten bucks an hour.

And then the idiots fall for it because they're afraid of gay marriage and women who have abortions.

As for people who move overseas (or pretend to) so they don't have to pay taxes the list is mile long.

The head of Carnival Cruise Lines for instance:

No Taxes - The Cruise Lines' Dirty Little Secret : Cruise Law News

Yeah Carnival Cruise lines is a Liberian company.



Would you like another fifty examples of such miserable behavior? The Arisons expect the protection of the United States and the right to the American market. But, like their fellow greedy scum, they just don't think they should actually pay for it.

WOW ... she just OWNED you (dumb) con's with that post.


OUTSTANDING work, ma'am

I am sorry, can you point out which 10 years Reid's source was referring to? I don't recall it being said to include the only year released, a partial one at that.

Or maybe you're not a Republican patting yourself on the back for your love of fetuses while ignoring the needs of actual people.

Barlett & Steele

If you read the link you'll discover that hardworking Poloraid workers had their pension fund raided and ended up with $47 bucks each after pensions that were supposed to be worth 100 -- 200k. Meanwhile House Republican Rick Lazio walked away with over $500k for a short stint on their board. How is that not immoral and utterly disgusting?



How the hell does Rick Lazio sleep at night?

If you think Romney hasn't pulled similar stunts you're well a Republican.

When will Harry Reid address the widespread concern that he is a pederast?

And yet this is still in the news and still haunting Romney, funny how the Cons in here think this is such a non-issue, yet won't admit that it is an issue for this story not to go away....maybe if Mittens released his tax returns further back that the one where he decided to run for office and cleaned them up and paid all his taxes, maybe this story would go away...but this denial is just a sign of a man who has something to hide and is afraid to lose an election over his past...yet continues to brag about his past records, but doesn't want anyone to fact check him on them, sounds like another dirty Republi-pig to me.

Right after Mittens releases his tax returns....and my guess with that will be never.

Because it is completely credible that Reid is a pederast. Whereas it's not at all credible that a really rich person might have paid or no taxes. Oh that Obama is not only a Kenyan but an actual space alien! That's far more credible than the notion that a man who has selfishly dedicated his life to nothing but making money might have been involved in shady tax deals!
