Re: "He gave his entire inheritance from his father to charity.
Mitt Romney is one of the wealthiest self-made men in our country but has given more back to its citizens in terms of money, service and time than most men.
And in 2011 Mitt Romney gave over $4 million to charity, almost 19% of his income.... Just for comparison purposes, Obama gave 1% and Joe Biden gave $300 or .0013%."
This guy walks the walk when it comes to giving back. Liberals are all for YOU giving back YOUR time and money, but NOT THEIRS.
How much do you Know about Romney?

He will show us he has nothing to hide.
Mitt Romney's background, experience and trustworthiness show him to be a great leader and an excellent citizen for President of the United States.
You may think that Romney may not be the best representative the Republicans could have selected. At least I know what religion he is, and that he won't desecrate the flag, bow down to foreign powers, or practice fiscal irresponsibility. I know he has the ability to turn this financial debacle that the current regime has gotten us into. We won't like all the things necessary to recover from this debt, but someone with Romney's background can do it. But, on the minus side, He never was a "Community Organizer", never took drugs or smoked pot, never got drunk, did not associate with communists or terrorists, nor did he attend a church whose pastor called for God to damn the US.
Ignore Lee's mindless input. He makes no sense. His own profile is vague and gibberish filled so what do you expect?
Maybe it's because of his upbringing . . . the spoiled son of a rich and politically powerful Daddy . . . a self-described Saint with an assumed superiority over us mere mortals . . . and destined to be literally a god someday, according to Mormon doctrine . . . and protected from evil by his magic underwear which is itself blessed by the Holy Spirit . . . . . . . born rich . . . invested from his earliest years with a sense of entitlement and privilege . . .Entitled to attack a gay teenager with scissors . . . entitled to impersonate a police officer and pull people over for fun . . .entitled to increase his wealth by shipping jobs overseas . . . entitled to not reveal his tax records like every other Presidential candidate is expected to do.
Yeah . . . it's his sense self-entitlement that distorts his world view and forms his assumptions . . . Assumptions that are pure Bull Sh*t.
That's what makes M*tt full of sh*t.
OR . . . Perhaps you are just lashing out because you realize that the truth is on my side, and you realize that of course makes your claims and your entire world view completely bogus.
And so you lash out . . . In frustration, denial, and anger.
I understand.
Go ahead and have a good cry.
Right Wing Nut Jobs are America's Enemy Number One.
They're just too Dumb to know it.
He sounds to me like he still thinks of himself as the privileged and entitled son of a powerful man who can attack a kid with scissors, or impersonate a police officer if he wants to. He seems be above the conventional ethics to which we mere commoners are expected to adhere. He's still the bully of the block.
Why doesn't he release his tax records like every other Presidential candidate is expected to do?
It's because he is hiding unethical behavior. What other reason can there be?
Romney's bullying certainly did not contribute to this person's sense of self-worth, do you think?
Romney created VICTIMS. Obama smoked a little dope, and may have sold some. Big deal.
While other 18 year old MEN were fighting and dying in Viet Nam, Bully boy Romney was busy victimizing his classmates.
We don't need this privileged boy in a position to victimize more Americans.
BTW, Romney has not released his college transcripts, or his birth certificate or anything else Right Wingers have demanded of Obama.
But Romney refuses to do the same.
Why?
Well . . . because Old Saint Mitt has a lot he wants to keep hidden that's why.
Who is more transparent?
Obama who released is tax records going back many years?
or
Romney, who will only release tax records for the last two years?
Answer the question.
