No, it's an issue because it speaks to the man's character.
As does past acquaintances and political appointee's which are being poo poo'ed by the dems.

It's only an issue because it makes a distraction.  Seems like it's never been an issue with any other election and I'm sure as much of a rebel as McCain is he would be outting him, and would have during the primary, rather than urging him to release them if something were wrong since he has seen Romney's tax's for the years they're asking for. Either way you don't pick one person apart bit by bit and not allow the same for another and if you don't understand what I'm saying then there is no hope.

His own father started the practice of releasing multiple years of tax returns as a candidate for the presidency; and it has all but eliminated the presidential tax scandals that used to arise during presidential administrations. (Nixon).

So as I said earlier; either he has a father issue or he has something to hide. Both reasonable conclusions.

I find it more than a little ironic to see you now defending an action you would scathe the POTUS over had the tables been turned.

Same can be said of college and high school records.  What is being hidden?  Not agreeing or disagreeing about showing them just an observation.

Nope just different types of records.  Both give you an idea of what the person is about.  Both also give the other side potential ammunition to use against the other, whether real or fabricated, to distract from issues.

All you had to do was watch the debates and town hall meetings during both the primary and presidential elections to know that is fact.  The race card was even pulled on Clinton during the dem primary.

LMAO!

That is SO laughable. 

Romney chose his career in finance but doesn't want to let the public in on pertinent records concerning that career.

The things you mention about Obama have been poured over at length for years - and one of those things is your continual ridiculous claim about the Weathermen.

School records are not as telling as tax returns; especially when you consider that decades have passed since a presidential candidate was a college student, and an entire career can take place within that timeframe.

If it is a barometer of conscience that is desired I submit that an examination of tax returns would be far more telling than a college transcript.

And distract from the issues at hand while the liberals nit pick them apart.  Why 10yrs wouldn't 2 or 3 be just as telling?

It don't mean a hill of beans to me........Mitt has went decades in the public light and has proved that he is a good man.  If we want to open up taxes of every person in Washington, I'm sure we would have some interesting things to talk about.  Mitt has been married to one woman for years.....his kids are all good people........THAT is about as telling about a person as there is....

HH it wouldn't matter if he had already released those tax's and they found everything on the up and up they would want to start on how or what he eats, the way he wears his clothes or how he arrived at his kids names and why did he really marry his wife.  Like they say, if you can't discuss the issues do a character assassination.  :wink:

HH said?

"Mitt has went decades in the public light and has proved that he is a good man."

That is certainly what is being debated now.

Like other public figures.

  Ann Romney said herself.  You people have seen all of the tax records your ever going to see.  If Mitt show them, you would find more to critizie us about.  For one, like the $77,000 tax deduction on her dancing horse.   :rolleyes:  More that the average family make in a year.   :mad:

  If Mitt would just show the records, especially the off shored money he has hidden.  It would be all over.  Over as far as the debate or all over for him.   :wink: :smile:  You all know he is a crook.  :trustme:  He'll make Nixon look like an angel.   :angel:
