Please sign this petition to have Hillary disclose her taxes
Here is the link.

http://www.PetitionOnline.com/hcinctax/petition-sign.html?

I am a relatively new person. I have been lurking for awhile, and am now deciding to step in the wading pool. I strong Obama supporter who will not be voting for HIllary is she hijacks this election.

27. Do you understand Obama has not released his returns? -just the final signed page plus a typed sheet
Edited on Sun Mar-09-08 11:28 AM by papau
that supposedly summarizes the backup schedules that he refuses to release.

I am amazed the American press are letting him get away with this crap - but then the American press want Obama since it will be easier for McCain to defeat him in the general.

33. How many times are you going to repeat this lie? 13 pages, we've posted
the link over and over, but you're either just a liar or delusional.

38. Right. Like a candidate for the presidential nomination does not expect to
have to release their tax filings.

47. She has said she will release them
You guys are a little nuts on this issue.

never before were candidates expected to release them before garnering the nomination. This is a totally made up, trumped up issue pushed by Obama fans.

7. How about the ones from 2000-2006? She has no excuse for not releasing them!
And come April 15, she will find another excuse to avoid releasing her tax records, which also includes all the schedules.

36. So, you can tell the future too. I am not a big fan of Hillary Clinton,
but I am a fan of the right to privacy.

I think that she should release her tax returns - but since she has not, and the IRS is not chasing her campaign plane around the country, I assume her filing is legal. If it is not, I am sure that the IRS will demand their pound of flesh.

Has anyone considered that the Clintons simply have not filed yet? They have until April 15 too you know.

Her 2000-2006 taxes aren't done yet? Maybe we can nail her for tax evasion.
Seems like she could just have her accountants fax them over if they were done, right?

43. Why should she not release 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 taxes now?
I can understand 2007 in April, but not the rest.

58. She will only release them if Obama makes her VP.
I'll be glad when he tells her to "fuck off", so she will fade away.

13. This does no good
unless it clearly states that we are petitioning her to release her past returns. All she has to do faced with the wording of this petition is say, "I already said I'd release them around April 15th."

54. Ahhh. The fourth amendment along with the rest of the bill of rights applies
only to,,, the peasants?

This is the Bush administrations fall back position - I am omnipotent - your laws do not apply.

When someone can demonstrate a legally binding requirement for presidential candidates to produce their tax returns I will go along with this.

Until then it is just a request by the citizens.

Maybe if you all ask a little more politely she might cooperate.

29. Thank you , and welcome to DU. I signed this yesterday.
If there is nothing to hide, why wait. Don't they have accountants to do this sort of thing. Rather poor planning and management, I must say. How can Hillary run a country, if she can't even get her taxes done. My taxes are done. Of course, I am not trying to hide millions of dollars from questionable sources with strings attached. If this isn't true---then show us the money, Hillary.


Pisces (My birthday was yesterday, so I am a Pisces, too).

I hope you don't let some unwelcome comments of a few here on DU bother you. There is an ignore function. I have used it on a couple of occasions.

49. Hillary ignored the millions that marched to prevent the Iraq War
She even called the cops to forcibly remove peaceful protesters that had come to her NY offices to petition for peace.

I have no illusions about "your girl."

if Hillary has something to hide, a petition is not going to persuade her to reveal it. Remember, Hillary doesn't listen to the people.

There's no reason she has anything to hide.

I don't see your tax returns on the internet - what are you hiding?

Clinton has said she'll release her tax returns - she doesn't have to do it on your timetable.
