IT'S A NEED TO KNOW THING

ACTUALLY....I thought I was through writing about Mrs. Romney.  However, I keep seeing things that just make my skin crawl.  Regarding her husbands tax returns, she says "we've given all you people need to know and understand about our financial situation and how we live our life".  Hold up there Mrs. R., when  the people of America vote for someone to be the President of the United States, it's their right to know everything there is to know about the person they may vote for.

I didn't know that the Mormon Church required you to give 10% of your income every year.  And sorry, but that doesn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling about your husband's character, nor does it convince me that he isn't hiding something in those tax returns.  I know that you are elite and special but I have a news flash for you, I can give you a long list of people at my church that tithe, and it's NOT a requirement to do so. Tithing, my dear women, is far from unusual.  And yes, in Gov. Romneys case I do think he is the kind of person that would hide things.

What makes you think that Mitt Romney has the answers for fixing the economy?  He certainly hasn't told anyone about his revelation on that subject, perhaps it came from above and he's hiding that too!

SHHH - IT'S A SECRET

ACTUALLY......Mitt Romneys affluence has once again surfaced, and I might add that it's not really complimentary. He has this affinity for sending his dollars to other countries.  He is a very secretive (or perhaps sneaky) man and it's believed he's not playing by the rules of transparency and disclosure.

There are recent reports regarding his offshore accounts.  Romney keeps millions of his income in the Cayman Islands, Switzerland, Ireland , Luxembourg and has invested more than $1 million in China.  I'm sure I recently read that if he is elected President, one of his priorities "on day one" is to start getting tough on China.  Humm?? He also owned a shell corporation in Bermuda.   An interesting fact about Bermuda - he transferred ownership of his secretive corporation to a blind trust in his wifes name.  Maybe this was to avoid disclosure.  Did he send his money offshore to keep from paying taxes?  One wonders just what amount of tax he would pay if his money was invested here in the U.S. instead of foreign tax havens.  It's not hard to believe that the reason he won't release his tax returns is because he has something to hide.  Americans have every right to know how he made his money, as well as what sort of taxes he pays. It's the right thing to do!

The American people don't know what he really has because he thinks he's too important to release his tax returns.  His golden parachute with Bain Capital still keeps him associated with the private-equity firm that he founded. Although he left the firm in 1999 he continues to receives large payments from them.  He revealed that in early June he received more than $2 million from Bain.

His campaign says Romney hasn't broken any laws - legally that is.  But is not breaking a law 'technically' good enough for someone who is running for President of the U.S.?  Romney is inauthentic, unprincipled, and has difficulty in telling the truth.  He's the picture of greed in a bad economy.

The Mormon Church says "do the right thing without delay regardless of the cost"
