SOME wage earners pay more OR LESS, depending on a whole range of factors.
Some live on just dividends from their investments. There is a WIDE range of tax rates out there.
Since SHE has claimed her rate is less than her boss, I'd like some PROOF of that, wouldn't you?
She may or may not decide to release her returns--that's her business, and she might surprise you--but the only reason you people want them is so you can try to find a reason to rip her to shreds as a person. She's a private person. Either she's going to make too much money (OMG! A half million dollars!) or she's going to have some investment income--you people are going to make a big stink out of something regardless, and I personally wouldn't be willing to put myself through that unless I was running for public office myself. She's not.
Let's make it simple. Do you, or do you not acknowledge that the tax rate on capital gains is 15%, and the tax rate on your earned taxable income, once you reach $35 K as a single filer, is higher? It's a simple question. Yes or no.
Nope, because Obama was classy enough not to air her tax percentage and her specific income for the world to see. That's not his business.
Your belief that the president is a liar is not her problem. Deal with it.
Yeah, he's got as much class that sits between my little toe.
To USE this woman, to thrust her in the public eye as a prop, as a tool for his false campaign rhetoric and now, when some would like to see the proof of the claim it's "Leave her alone"!!!!
Don't think so.
See, in case you're not aware, obama could care LESS for this woman, as long as she serves her purpose in his campaign.

Her privacy regarding her tax rate ended when she agreed to be used as a campaign prop.
How about on the stump, where he certainly got her permission to USE her "supposed" tax rate for his campaign?
I know you believe all that comes out of obama's mouth, but some of us would like some proof now that obama, buffett and his secretary have opened the door.
Really? Didn't I just say in a previous post that I don't believe everything Obama says? Can you read? I'm done talking in circles with you guys, so I'll just leave with this: Your belief that the president is a liar is not her problem. It's yours. Deal with it.

Actually, I don't believe everything that comes out of his mouth, but on this issue I think some of you are being about as tacky as it gets. It's not becoming.

Her problem is that she let Obama use her as a prop.

Still not any of your business, as Mac said.
Deal with it.
This shrillness is not very becoming.

That is not even the point and you know it.
She gave up her privacy (re: her tax rate) when she became a willing stooge/prop for obama.
That woman sat willingly smiling (painfully) for the cameras as the woman who paid more than her billionaire boss. She is now a public figure who is subject to public scrutiny.
