Put up or shut up -- BOTH OF YOU

Either put up, or shut up - and a plague on both your houses, to borrow a line from Shakespeare.
Romney is hiding something; we won't know what so long as both sides of the Mitts on R-money / Harry Reid controversy are playing cutsie and coy.
There is a simple solution.  When pressed, Barak Obama revealed his birth certificate.  Let's see R-money do the same with the documents in question of his.  And if R-money puts up his taxes, dating back to 1999, when his residence and claims about his Bain activities are in question.  I have no reason to believe that if R-money answered the questions he has promised to answer, that Reid would come forward with his.  Lets have a level playing field here, lets have a single standard instead of the double standard and hypocrisy from the right for a change.

Lets hold BOTH Reid and the Mittens on R-money to the same standard of open honesty and ethics.
Apparently Sen. Reid isn't the only person making a claim about R-money. R-money is alarmingly OPAQUE. R-money has been caught before misrepresenting his tax status and apparently his residency before; he demanded that voters just trust him then as well --- and it was demonstrated the voters shouldn't trust him AT ALL then, so we shoudn't trust him NOW.

Watcha hiding Mitt? Watcha hiding?

  1. Democrats can't run on their record this election because everything is worse than four years ago and the voters know it. So they have to pretend their replacement would be even worse. I predict more baseless charges timed to shock the mushy-middle make-up-my-mind-in-the-booth voters, something involving a dead model or possibly drowned kittens.

  2. Republicans are the ones who cant run on their records. I would disagree that things are worse thn four years ago - do your fact checking, again you fail.

    If you look at the Ballotpedia study, including the most recent update, it is the incumbents who are failing at an unprecedented rate, and the majority of those failing including getting out of primaries are Republicans.

    The disapproval rating of Republicans is higher than for Democrats. So, it would seem that voters are unhappier with your side, by quite a lot.

    They don't have new ideas, and they haven't done anything of note except culture wars promoting the out of date fact-averse views of conservative crabby old white people.

    Conservatives are consistently on the wrong side of issues and controversies in history. They are the foot dragging out of touch out of daters who don't produce new ideas, don't produce progress, and who try too hard to hold on to what is traditional, but wrong, as distinct from traditional and valuable and good.

    Mitt will get a lot of money, but he has too many skeletons rattling in his closet that even all that money can't muffle.

    Mitt gets caught making stupid mistakes, a lot. He is dishonest.

    So, do you want fair 'pure' honest elections? Would you vote then for someone who bribes voters?

  3. Shouldn't Romney's taxes be provided dating back to '05. I was always told that's how long the I.R.S. has for an audit. 7 years?

  4. Because of the issues of his business career on which Romney himself is campaigning, it should be back to 1999.

    The IRS has a period set for audits, because tax law says after that length of time, they can no longer seek penalties. That is not the issue here; the accuracy of Romney's claims and statements IS.
