Romney Suggests Releasing Additional Tax Returns Could Be Politically Damaging
By Igor Volsky on Jul 16, 2012 at 9:23 am

Mitt Romney appeared on Fox & Friends Monday morning to respond to the growing number of conservatives who are calling on the former Massachusetts governor to release more of his tax returns.

At least eight Republicans have urged Romney to publicize the records and put the issue behind him, but the candidate is sticking to his guns. The public will see just two years of returns and no more, Romney said, before appearing to admit that the records may contain something politically damaging:

ROMNEY: The Obama people keep on wanting more and more and more. More things to pick through, more things for their opposition research to try make a mountain out of and to distort and to be dishonest about. We’re going to put out two years of tax returns.

1. ya can't make much of a mountain out of a mole hill Mitt-

I don't think this is going to just go away.

It better not.

[magnifisense]

2. Very likely, I would say.

Why else would he be refusing? I think this is any easy inference.

3. Do not let this slimy bastard slide

Dig deep in Rmoney's records!! He's hiding more than money!!

[gollygee]

4. Well, yeah.

He wouldn't hide unless there were a reason to hide. He's running for president and this is pretty standard. He must have known it was coming.

[HopeHoops]

5. Yeah, like getting a cancer screening could give doctors a reason to find your cancer.

Unfortunately, the shrub proved that half of America really IS as stupid as we think they are.

6. they're going for the resolute character thing, I think

he's being a Decider, period. No more tax returns.

But you're right, it's not going away.

7. and the second tax return will only be released Nov. 1, I bet.

We need posters at every Romney event that say "What are you hiding Mitt?"

[ananda]

8. Yeah that evil Obama team..

.. would actually read my returns and use
them against me. How dare they stoop to
such tactics. I'm Mitt Romney, I'm rich and
I'm a Reep, and we rich Reeps are the ones
that ruin people and their chances.

9. He's trying to make a mountain into mole hill. Sorry. No dice. n/t

10. Willard's got a problem!!!

Twelve plus weeks of mounting pressure on the Willard,notice how the narrative is shifting,finally the Dems a shaking the banana tree and the Willard is getting hit with his own rotten fruits.

Watch Willard's body language,not good for him. Starting to show his flaws in stage crafting,piercing squinting eyes,corners of his mouth upturned,voice inflections of anger. This guy is a bully and I look for him to verbally explode,this won't be the first time,tick tick.
