Quoted from 55tbird

He'd have to release the real ones to prove it...If I was making the decision, it would be worth the gamble...unless his returns are worse than the doctored ones.


As I see it, it's a lose/lose for Romney.  If he does release his actual returns... he's caved in to criminals, and
was forced to release them against his will.
If he doesn't release them, people will be even more sure that he is hiding something.

We should all believe whatever Bill Clinton says even though he lied under oath so he should have no trouble lying when he isn't under oath.

YUP!  Bill Clinton LIED under oath (about a personal matter, involving sex with Monica).  
AND
George W Bush LIED about WMD's and more, that caused the death of 4400+ American Patriots.

One of these two lies seems to be much more important to me than the other.  How about you?

All politicians lie. It is a fact of life.

Politicians are a subset of all people.

All people lie.

Therefore...

Romney Gives Up on 2 Battleground States.

The Romney campaign and Romney SuperPacs have pulled their spending from two key battleground
states, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

The Romney campaign and conservative groups like Crossroads GPS have pulled TV ads in Michigan,
Romney’s home state, according to the Detroit News.

Nor are the campaign and super PACs running advertising in Pennsylvania, after unleashing a barrage
there over the past five months.

Obama has a fairly significant lead in both states, although in Michigan, he’s barely outside the margin
of error at about 3.5%.

SECRET SERVICE: WE‘RE ’AWARE‘ OF DNC DELEGATE’S THREAT TO ‘KILL’ ROMNEY
Posted on September 6, 2012 at 4:25pm by        Madeleine Morgenstern


A spokesman for the Secret Service said the agency is “aware” of the video published by TheBlaze that featured a Democratic National Convention delegate saying she would like to “kill” Mitt Romney.

“We are aware of it and we will conduct the appropriate follow-up,” Secret Service spokesman George Ogilvie told TheBlaze Thursday.

Ogilvie said he could not talk specifically about what kind of follow-up the agency was conducting.

In TheBlaze’s video, a woman who identified herself as New York delegate Julia Rodriguez said Romney would “destroy this country” if elected president.

“He will destroy this country completely, she said. “Romney will destroy his country…if I see him I would like to kill him.”.........................>>>>................>>>>...................http://www.theblaze.com/stories/secret-service-were-aware-of-dnc-delegates-threat-to-kill-romney/

George Romney, Mitt Romney's father, was on welfare early in his life, A Mexican refugee
according to a 1962 video of an interview with Mitt Romney's mother as George Romney was
running for Governor.
It seems that much was left out of Mitt Romney's biopic...first, he forgot to mention that his
father's family moved to Mexico so that George Romney's grandfather could marry his fifth
simultaneous wife,
a move that was illegal in Utah when Utah became a state. He also failed
to mention that during a Mexican revolution, Mitt Romney's grandfather as an immigrant to this
nation, qualified for assistance that was passed by the federal government to help refugees
escaping political strife.

So as a young immigrant, George Romney's family took federal funds to get back on their
feet.

I guess, perhaps, the taxpayers helped out Mr. Romney's family. And perhaps he owes everyone
an apology for implying that the federal government didn't make him the man he is today. Without
those assistance programs, that he ridicules in his ads, I wonder where his family would be today.

The most important questions are - When did President Obama know about the break-in?  What lengths will he go to cover up his involvement in this criminal activity?

"I only regret you're repeating it day in and day out. When you give a speech you don't go
through a laundry list, you talk about the things that you think are important and I described in my
speech, my commitment to a strong military unlike the president's decision to cut our military."


-- Mitt Romney, in an interview on Fox News, on why he didn't mention Afghanistan or praise U.S.
troops in his convention speech last week.

I think the praising of the Military, although warranted, does not need to be in every speech.
When you use it too often, it becomes a prop.
"we support the troops" is the most overused phrase I have heard in quite a while. And when you ask exactly what they mean, they struggle to tell you what.

I agree... he should have talked about what is important to him... and he did... and left out what was
unimportant.

what do you mean? Barry didn't talk about Golf during his speech and that seems pretty important to him
