Are Mitt Romney's Tax Returns Really Relevant To This Election?

Yes, Knowing What Is Contained In Mitt's Tax Returns Will Decide The Election For Me!
No! It's Irrelevant And A Ploy To Distract Me From Barry's Incompetance!

Personally, I think all the emphasis on demands that Mitt Romney release 12 years of tax returns is nothing but an attempt to diffuse and distract from Barack Obama's dismal performance as President and a non-issue. Especially when Obama has done everything he can to seal his personal records... Seems a bit hypocritical? What do you think? Are the demands for Mitt Romney to release 12 years of tax returns really relevant to the issues facing struggling Americans who will decide this election, or just another ploy by the Obama camp to distract voters?

    Sure it's relevant. When people talk of "tax reform" how can they be serious about electing a multimillionaire making 20 million and paying less than 14% in income tax? Seems to me such a person would be more interested in keeping their loophole intact and making the overburdened middle class pick up their share of the tab.

    Yeah, just like Tim the tax cheat Sec of Treasury, Labor Sec., DHHS Sec. funny tax return, tax dodging Kerry! Sure its relevant, when it happened to Repubs but Dems are above the law!

    Hypocrisy of the Dem, could careless of how nobama spends our tax dollars, but got to know where Romney spends his personal earnings!


    Where is that shovel ready jobs after spending $780 billions stimulus "of our money"?

    What? government spending is public record. same should be true of RomKnees tax returns. O saved millions of jobs with stimulus. If he let the auto industry go bankrupt like romKnee wanted you would have seen a total economic collapse.

    the tax ax system that favors obama, buffet, reid, pelosi, clinton, kennedy, all of hollywood, all the lawyers, all teh athletes. i agree lets make the tax systme that the rich libs have to pay more. oh wait they can. if you want to pay more in taxes you can. sorry libby but the corrup[t tax system of making the middle class pay more is why people are against obama and the libs. they all complain about not paying taxes but never once offer to pay more. guess they relaly have no problem with the tax system. probably the reason why they are not trying to change it

    Fair is the American spirit, the American way!
    Do you want to be called a tax cheat by the 3rd highest elected gov official Harry Ried, but all along you've been paying fed taxes like every one else in your category?

    Romney paid his fed tax same as any one in his tax bracket, no different than Hillary, ole Bill, Keryy, Nobama, Piglosi, Soro, Rhombo...


    If you wanted fair tax, lets make every one pay the same 10% across the board. This way, every one pays the same. Equal taxation and equal representation, fair is fair:)

    That would be unfair... 10% is a fortune to a poor person... Why, it could be a matter of life and death even..

    To a wealthy person, it's nothing.

    But a Herman Cain said, "If you ain't rich, it's your own fault..."

    Are you deflecting? 35% of our citizens are on welfare, 49% does not pay any fed tax liability, nobama added another 10% to the disability population so to get them off the "unemployment list", now can you do the math? Tomorrow, if Obama confiscates 100% of money from the rich and small business owners, and what do we have then, as a nation?

    4 years without a budget plan from this president, not even the dirtiest dirty Harry would vote for obama's proposed plan!

    A failed presidency!
