Aug. 13, 2012 - PPM -Taxing My Patience

This week's PET PEEVE MONDAY (PPM) is the non-stop harping from the Democrats and "Progressives" about TAX RETURNS.

Why is it important to know what our Presidential candidates earn? It is not a prerequisite to be President who run for office to release their tax returns

We know that Romney was EXTREMELY successful. We know that he gave more to charity than any Democrat candidate in history.

It shouldn't matter if Romney has off-shore accounts. It shouldn't matter if Romney paid an effective tax rate of 14%. Romney did nothing illegal. If you don't like it, change the laws.

Maybe, I'm naive, but I would like the NEXT President to have had some real world experience and success. I actually want the next President to be EXTREMELY successful. We have seen to the detriment to our country what happens when we elect someone that only looks good, speaks well, and is an excellent teleprompter reader.

Bottom line: If Romney didn't pay taxes for 10 years (as Harry Reid suggests) he would be in jail. Also, the IRS is part of the US Department of Treasury and reports to Obama. I think if Obama got off of the campaign trail long enough, he would have his "Chicago buddies" do a data dive and find any dirt if it EXISTS within Romney's tax returns.


If you can't run on your record, throw up some allegations and distractions and hope the uninformed electorate buys it.
