20 Prominent Republicans Who Want Romney To Release More Tax Returns Right Now (ReUpdated)

Last edited Thu Jul 19, 2012, 06:45 PM - Edit history (1)

Mitt Romney continues to resist pressure to turn over more tax returns. In an interview today he said he is “simply not enthusiastic about giving them hundreds or thousands of more pages to pick through, distort, and lie about.”

The call for more information about Romney’s financial past, however, is bipartisan. A poll released today found fifty six percent of all voters, including sixty one percent of independents, think that Romney should release twelve years of returns.

These fifteen prominent Republicans are calling on Romney to release more tax returns, now:

How much risk do you think the super PACs are willing to take? Suppose they spend the millions and millions and lose?

7. Mitt Romney: Becoming Increasingly Toxic To The Republican Partly

Romney has two huge problems hanging over his head that he fails to realize.

1 His Tax Returns
2 His Foreign Problem

1. His refusal to turn over at least 5 years of taxes is making him one of the most toxic candidates ever to apply for the job of POTUS. He has no idea that he is in an interview process for the job and we are doing the interview and we are his boss (I like to fire rich arrogant people). in this interview process, we are telling the interviewee, we want to see your taxes before you get a nod (not) He fails to realize the waitresses and the waiters that serve him at his fund raisers are his bosses. Poor mitt out of touch with reality. So far on the interview Romney is failing epic. Those Tax Returns are about to kill his political life for good. At this point it doesn't really matter, he's already seriously damaged himself and bleeding out politically. He is trying to distract us from his tax record. Now remember it was not the president that brought up his business experience. Romney held up his business experience at Bani for examination and now that media is Turing over every rock, he's offended. If you did not really mean for us to look closely, you should have never held it up for scrutiny. he wants to speak about The Presidents record but not his record isn't that a little hypocritical?

2. He said "his course is extraordinarily foreign" Really, Romney has the real Foreign problem and a person with a fond taste of Foreign should not point fingers Romney has a glaring foreign problem that hang around his neck like a dead rotting albatross carcass.
He has off-shored Middle Class American Jobs to foreign countries
Romney has off shore accounts in seven foreign foreign countries
He set up off shore corporation in a foreign country to help foreign investors invest in the United States and evade paying taxes
He has off shore investments in several nations foreign
he invests in a business that specializes in off-shoring American Jobs into foreign nations,
