3. Bashir was just skinning the artificial plastic skin from the robot

He was bringing up things that I've never herd about Romney's 2010 tax return. Romney took tax credits of a kind that require his active involvement in Bain Capital through 2010. And we know Romney has denied involvement since 1999.

4. I would rephrase the question this way .....

Why would a man who has been running for or planning to run for President be stupid enough to invest millions of his dollars in tax havens and think he could keep it quiet?

Asshole

[Surya Gayatri]

8. A gesture of solidarity with struggling

economies? Switzerland and the Caymans are well known hard-luck cases, after all.

The Mittster's own private foreign aid initiative?

Doesn't believe in America.
