Clinton and Obama both disclosed their taxes while running for President, as sitting Senators. geek tragedy Apr 2016 #1
You really shouldn't bring up "wagging fingers" while attempting to defend... phleshdef Apr 2016 #2
You've seen plenty of Hillary' speeches. Why do you need to see the transcripts of others? geek tragedy Apr 2016 #4
Please go find one single post where I've said anything about her transcripts. phleshdef Apr 2016 #5
Obama and Clinton didn't make that kind of excuse in 2008. Why should Sanders be held to a lower geek tragedy Apr 2016 #6
When has Sanders said he will not release his returns? phleshdef Apr 2016 #7
Don't confuse him with facts, he's rolling. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #11
His actions have spoken way louder than any words said or unsaid, his FULL taxes are not out there.. uponit7771 Apr 2016 #85
Seriously? passiveporcupine Apr 2016 #9

Reddit is not a news source. geek tragedy Apr 2016 #88
The Panama Papers news is all over the place. passiveporcupine Apr 2016 #90
that article is a year old nt geek tragedy Apr 2016 #91
That's not the point passiveporcupine Apr 2016 #92
You are offering nothing but evasion from legitimate questions that challenges your grievances. phleshdef Apr 2016 #14
he doesn't get credit for disclosure until he discloses, that's how transparency works geek tragedy Apr 2016 #15
That should be a really interesting Schedule A. okasha Apr 2016 #16
My thoughts as well DemonGoddess Apr 2016 #86
Clever little ploy of Hillary's, that passiveporcupine Apr 2016 #19

this is what is called "vetting" in the political process. This is the very early stage geek tragedy Apr 2016 #24
Oh please, its not about vetting. Its about finding a way to make the other candidate look bad. phleshdef Apr 2016 #28
it's the hypocrisy. if he hadn't been wagging his finger about Clinton's speech transcripts geek tragedy Apr 2016 #30
"Wagging his finger" phleshdef Apr 2016 #33

No because #2 is an utter lie. He will give you the damn tax returns. phleshdef Apr 2016 #37
is that your standard for holding politicians accountable geek tragedy Apr 2016 #40
I have no reason to believe that he won't. And neither do you. phleshdef Apr 2016 #42
No he isn't hiding anything and you know that. phleshdef Apr 2016 #25
until he shows it, he's hiding it. geek tragedy Apr 2016 #29
No he isn't. Thats utter bullshit. phleshdef Apr 2016 #34
why did he disclose only the 1040 instead of the schedules showing his deductions? geek tragedy Apr 2016 #36
Its good enough for me. Good enough for most people really. phleshdef Apr 2016 #38
Please read this article about Rubio and Cruz's tax disclosures. geek tragedy Apr 2016 #39
Means nothing. phleshdef Apr 2016 #41
so those criticisms of Cruz and Rubio were egregiously unfair? nt geek tragedy Apr 2016 #43
I think everything should ultimately be disclosed. phleshdef Apr 2016 #53
The birthers demanded that Obama show his "long form" BC, but when he did, they tblue37 Apr 2016 #44
I almost made that same comment myself, but perhaps its a bit over the top in comparison. phleshdef Apr 2016 #51
He's dragging his feet, at best nt geek tragedy Apr 2016 #84
You realize that when he releases these things, it's going to seem awfully wormy when Marr Apr 2016 #68
I want to see the transcripts of the speeches that Hillary made to Wall Street and to JDPriestly Apr 2016 #32
Transparency? pugetres Apr 2016 #52
Disclosed. Bernie hasn't disclosed anything. geek tragedy Apr 2016 #83
From the creators of the Birther movement, comes the equally stupid Marr Apr 2016 #72

Glad to see Aerows Apr 2016 #8
Financial disclosures are not tax returns. nt Jitter65 Apr 2016 #18
And tax returns are not financial disclosures? Financial disclosures show a lot more about income... phleshdef Apr 2016 #26
More facts, stop harshing the meme! beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #27
Sure they do-but they are NOT tax returns. riversedge Apr 2016 #45
Yes, no one said they were tax returns. Now that we've burned that strawman... phleshdef Apr 2016 #46
Then no need for a long OP on financial disclosures. riversedge Apr 2016 #56
Three short paragraphs and two short excerpts equate to a long OP? phleshdef Apr 2016 #58
No they are in a panic and will move on to the next shiny object. Autumn Apr 2016 #31
But they are not tax returns 4now Apr 2016 #47
But they still tell us all about their net worth, their assets and their liabilities. phleshdef Apr 2016 #50
I just wonder what he is trying to hide 4now Apr 2016 #57
Nothing and he isn't. phleshdef Apr 2016 #59
If he wasn't trying to hide something then he would release his tax returns. 4now Apr 2016 #60
Um, he said he is going to soon. phleshdef Apr 2016 #61
Please. Don't hold your breath. 4now Apr 2016 #64
I won't. No need to. phleshdef Apr 2016 #65
That's genuinely pathetic. Kentonio Apr 2016 #63
He or she knows that. Thats why I didn't even bother correcting them. phleshdef Apr 2016 #67
I only bother on the grounds that if this stuff is left unchallenged Kentonio Apr 2016 #70
Yea, thats cool. I do that sometimes, but I get tired of the horse shit other times. phleshdef Apr 2016 #71
I think my limit will be reached with the next damn tax thread they vomit over the forum. Kentonio Apr 2016 #74
What is wrong with you? Why would you say he's blaming Jane? beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #75
Maybe he will do the right thing and release his tax returns 4now Apr 2016 #76
That answers that question, it's bottomless. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #77
People won't give up on this story until he comes clean and releases his hidden tax returns. 4now Apr 2016 #78

They'll move on to some other bullshit smear without acknowledging it, because Marr Apr 2016 #66
Yup. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #73
My guess is that it's a pre-emptive strike in advance of a release of the Panama winter is coming Apr 2016 #94
