    If Romney Releases Only 5 years of his Tax Returns, Will that Satisfy you?[W:296]

    Are you among the growing number of Americans who are reluctant to vote for a candidate who refuses to share his financial records with the American public? Do you find it impossible to vote for someone who is running on his record as a business person yet refuses to allow the AMerican people to see his complete record?

    If so, then will you be satisfied if he releases only 5 years of his tax returns?

    The more the merrier, but I'd be satisfied with five years.

The luxuries and vanities of life occasion the principal expense of the rich, and a magnificent house embellishes and sets off to the best advantage all the other luxuries and vanities which they possess. ... It is not very unreasonable that the rich should contribute to the public expense, not only in proportion to their revenue, but something more than in that proportion."

    A non-issue? This is huge issue. Romney will not have the vote of Conservatives who actually care about integrity - like I do - until he stops disrespecting the American people by hiding his business record that he is claiming that he is running on. Not only does it show a total lack of respect for the American people - it also shows incredible stupidity on the part of RINO Romney. He is putting his campaign people and spokesmen in the unfortunate position of having to try to explain to voters why Romney is hiding things from them. This issue is in the news everyday. His campaign workers are being forced to defend an position that is unethical. Which is sorta like selling snake oil. He is going to lose campaign workers left and right as this issue continues.

    Too bad he hasn't even released one complete return then, eh?

    I'd be fine if he only released the bare minimum. If he has paid all of his taxes and has no problems with the IRS, then in my opinion, there's no problem. I don't expect him to pay more money than he has to, just like I wouldn't expect someone of a lower class to pay more than they have to. If anyone has a problem with what he pays, it's a governmental issue, not a Romney issue.

    It only becomes a "huge issue" to liberals when people start talking about Obama's failed record as president

    You should be directing this question to Obama. He is the one driving this taxer issue...along with the help of the compliant mainstream media. Plus, you should find out first if Romney is willing to release any tax returns.

    Otherwise, you whole question is a useless exercise in mental masturbation.

    But, hey...what ever gets your rocks off, eh?

    Romney is not going to release his full returns. Never happen. He didn't when he ran for governor. He isn't going to do it now. Obviously he has something to hide. It's rather silly that people pretend that he doesn't. That said, I wouldn't vote for him no matter what he released nor would I vote for Obama. Corpgov owns both of them. No thank you very much.

    I'm not one of that growing number of Conservatives. I've never looked at the released tax records of any president; that's not what is ever going to determine who I vote for. We all vote in our own self-interests. My self-interests (and, I believe, those of our country, btw...) are served by having a more conservative man in the White House than Obama. Period. End of story.

    If Obama is elected, and he has the Democratic votes to get it done (like his first two years), I fully expect an amnesty program that will turn people's hair grey, a mass forgiveness of student loans, and other liberal policies that will take our country further down the road towards Greece and others.

    I have faith in Romney to change the course.
