Wow, if all this could be hiding in Obama's college transcripts just imagine what damaging things that could be in Romney's tax returns. The birthers must be foaming at the mouth to find out what Romney is hiding.

yet not a single president or major candidate has with the exception of gw bush releasing partial college records.


i've asked this question twice before hawkeye and you've yet to answer. you've said that you have an extensive education and background in medicine, would you give a pregnant woman in her third trimester and a newborn baby yellow fever vaccination shots?

Did you graduate from college? Have you ever actually seen a transcript? Why do you want to know Obama's grades, for Pete's sakes?

I get it. All this sparkly little nothing amounts to is just more birther nonsense. When Earth falls into the sun, the only life that will survive are birthers and cockroaches.
Are you telling us you never applied for a job that demanded a copy of your transcripts? If you want to see Romney's tax returns why do you find it so hard for others to want to see Obama's transcripts. I for one, don't care about either, but I do see how some people feel?

you got it: if one side seems to think Romney is hiding something that could be damaging, what makes them think Obama isn't? Did he get a scholarship because he was from another country, did he have terrible grades, did he get into law school because he was a minority, using affirmative action and not based on grades?

what is the evidence that supports he was from another country?

keep in mind that, according to mexican citizenship laws, romney does have mexican citizenship thru his father. it is more likely that romney could have registered as a foreign student yet their is no demand for romney to show his transcripts/applications to prove he didn't.

Oh please, I expect this kind of drivel from the birther crowd, but thought you were above that. Fact of the matter is Presidential candidates have traditionally released several years worth of tax returns, they have not released college transcripts.

Also why are you refusing to call out your own side about LYING over hiding the records and paying $$ to keep them hidden??

The charge that the president got bad grades 30 years ago doesn't hold water, however: Biographer David Maraniss says Obama got a 3.7 GPA at Columbia and graduated magna *** laude from Harvard Law, something you can't do with bad grades.

You know this has gotten me thinking, these people are right, Romney should release his tax returns for at least the past 8 years and release his college transcripts too to one up Obama...I mean seriously, what is Romney hiding in his college transcripts that he doesn't want us to see.
