OK all you accusatory conspiracy theorists, show us ONE piece of hard evidence of your senseless accusations against Romney.

You can't, because none exist.

Well, there is the demonstrable fact that either he or somebody else fudged how long he was at Bain for some odd reason.

I also enjoy the fact that somebody whose display name compares Barack Obama to Richard Nixon is calling others accusatory conspiracy theorists.

Mittens was in Utah running the Olympics rather than "at Bain," and not involved with it, despite apparently holding a title for a period, although I have yet to see a story that clearly explains it. In due course, Mittens will of course. He has to.

Obama and the Democrats lied about Romney's time at Bain.

Just ask John King and David Gergen from CNN, two of the most knowledgeable and astute political commentators in America today.

You mean some of the most idiotic establishment politicos? Gotcha.

Ya wanna go toe to toe with King or Gergen on political developments?

It's kind of funny that the original subject of this thread was Sununu...

David Gergen has admitted himself that he was on Bain's payroll, so his opinion ain't worth much.

"Hiding" money abroad and not reporting the income on your tax returns is fraud. "Depositing" money abroad and reporting the income on your tax returns is not. Do you have any evidence that any money was "hidden?"

Until Romney releases his tax returns, we'll never know, will we? 

I guess I have to explain it to you again: even if Obama Romney published his college transcript, his thesis, his articles in the Harvard Law Review all his tax returns we would only be privy to the monies he "deposited" aboard and dutifully reported on his taxes. We would still be unaware of any money he has "hidden" abroad. If you have any evidence he has "hidden" money abroad by all means post it.

It makes no sense to say availing to provisions of the tax code constitutes a failure to pay the taxes that would be due if that provision of the tax code did not exist.  It is entirely "legal," "ethical," "fair" and, yes, "American" to deduct your home mortgage interest from your tax returns even if your taxes would be higher if that provision did not exist in the tax codes.

Warren Buffett has repeated claimed that he "should" pay more taxes than are due under the current tax regime. Nevertheless, he continues to minimize his taxes due by availing himself to the current provisions. While his actions are hypocritical as Hell, I don't believe that he is being "unethical," "unfair" or "Un-American."
