Rmoney should be in jail if this is true, and I believe it is. He perjured himself many times, and held an office he never should have held.

He lied ten years ago about his residency, and started retroactively reviling taxes so he could claim residency in MA and run for gov.

He must be a really crappy lawyer, signing those docs without reading them.

I bet Ann Romney signed those docs too. Maybe she should be questioned, too. You never know what a little heat might do.

He is not and never has been a practicing lawyer.

But he is and has been a tax evader, liar and professional outsourcer of American jobs.

If he keeps turning to shit on the Reepublicans, shouldn't they replace him at the convention? Won't the ones who really really wanna win try and takeover? If so, who might be the new candidate?

The IRS frowns on taxpayers signing their returns under penalty of perjury, and then coming back years later to amend those returns which stated false factual statements in order to exact benefits that the taxpayers were not entitled to receive.

Even worse, it is a crime to lie to an IRS agent.

It appears Romney has made conflicting statements under oath to gain benefits that could not be realized any other way.

This is going to turn the heat up on Romney to release his prior year tax returns, and there is no way he can release those returns without this coming out.

I don't see how he survives this.

Media and others need to look into what he did and didn't do about his tax returns when he ran for governor of Mass. To say he was deceptive back then is an understatement!!!

....water from the floor. Then it is wrung out in the mop bucket. Repeat process untill entire floor is mopped up. Pretty simple actually. That said, it seems to me that terry cloth would work much better than Armani cloth.

13. So when does a states attorney general file a case?
Wed Aug 1, 2012, 11:57 PM

Or does a private citizen have to do it?

If the teabaggers can file case after case demanding a birth certificate, surely tax evasion and perjury cases can be filed.
