Actually, no. I don't. I have never once taken Reid's claim seriously, and I do not believe for a second that Romney paid no taxes for ten years.

That said... Obama has voluntarily released more of his personal records than any other President in US history. This includes several years of his tax records that Romney refuses to release.

When Romney matches that... only then will you be in a position to accuse Obama supporters of hypocrisy without being... well... a hypocrite.

SourD is a known Obama basher and birther. It's not surprising.

Pathetic. The Republican delusion that Obama isn't a citizen is not backed up by any factual evidence. The notion that Mitt Romney might have paid little or no taxes is entirely plausible because many of his fellow rich pigs do exactly that -- pay little or nothing in taxes.

The problem the Reps have is public perception that their party is the party of the truly greedy. Worse, the greedy who want to earn their money by turning the rest of us into slaves who must accept a much lower standard of living. That problem isn't going away anytime soon. Especially after you've nominated a guy who not only embodies that ugly reality but practically revels in it.

Surely, you jest.

The little (stupid) people believe what fools like Chrissy Matthews, Andrea Mitchell, etc, tell them to believe. They don't have enough brain power to string their own thoughts together, so they follow the mantra.

I thank God every day that I'm not one of them.

Just when you think brain-dead right-wingers couldn't possibly make themselves look more foolish...I'll say it again, approve of the ethics of it or not, Harry's little gambit has again sent the moonbats into full meltdown mode.

I was always very good at finding Waldo. I'm also very good at identifying fraud.

There would be no fraud here... even were the idiotic delusion actually true.

Steve (we all know that's who you are--same crap, different user name)

Your own article states that the person you're quoting went to school at Columbia but doesn't know DIDDLY SQUAT about Obama as a student there--once again it's all "I have a gut feeling" BS. He didn't know Obama. Here's the deal. The president's mom was an American Citizen. He was born here, and lived here until the first grade--he went to kindergarten in Hawaii. He moved with his mom and step dad to Indonesia for three years, and then went back to Hawaii to go to school from the fourth grade on. His step dad never adopted him, so he wasn't eligible for an Indonesian passport. He had an American passport--NOT an indonesian one. EVEN IF he was born in Kenya (which he was not) he'd still be an American citizen with an American passport. Even if he lived in Indonesia for a few years as a kid, he'd still have an American passport. You can't enroll as a foreign student if you're an American citizen. Are you really this stupid?

I went to school out of the country for a year in high school--it's no different. I went with an American passport, and I enrolled in college as an American citizen. Just because you study outside of the country you don't change your nationality.

The only reason you birther nut jobs care about his college records is because you've been proved wrong over and over on the birth certificate, and you're too stupid to admit you're wrong, so now you're moving on to his college records. It's insane.

Nope. Why would anybody have to renounce their US citizenship when US citizenship law allows dual/multiple citizenships at the same time?

You really have to stop making **** up. Please... point to these imaginary rules that say a US citizen is not eligible for foreign exchange student status if they actually are also foreign citizens?

Better yet... what are you hallucinating is the advantage of being a "foreign exchange student?"

He was coming from Hawaii. In case you have not noticed, that is one of the United States.

While Root (a long debunked buffoon) suggests in a classic act of wild Birther speculation that Obama might have been a foreign exchange student, he does so from what he admits is a position of complete and unrefined personal ignorance. He does not say that "Obama went to college as a Foreign citizen" because he admits that he doesn't know one way or the other.

Remember, this guy has been saying for more than four years that nobody at Columbia knew Obama. And that was a lie before it ever first left his lips.
Its easy then right? Just release the records? I mean it's that easy for Romney according to *******s it must be just as easy for B.Sotero.

Come on what has Obungler got to lose?

What are you afraid of HS? call on your King to release his records.
