He never says 13% INCOME TAX...he says taxes. I don't feel like he's on the up and up. I think he should follow his dad's lead and prove that he paid income taxes.
Plus, he thinks it's "small-minded" to ask him about it. His dad didn't think that.

And I do not get any government funds paid in r otherwise. My spouse gets a veterans and a social security retirement. He has his choice of the VA or Medicare which he pays for every month besides what he paid into it for about 55 years. Like me he started out working early (6 years old with a shoe shine stand) but didn't pay into the system till he was a teenager.WE did not invent this retirement plan. It was in place when we started working. I say if you are such a hater of this system wait till YOU retire and start changing the program. We like it just fine.

So we just take Romney on his word?
I mean, there's a really easy way he can back up his own assertions and also make a fool out of Sen. Reid. Something he could do.... something he wanted his primary rivals to do... something his own father did... Hmmm..

So should we just take Reid at his word??? All Reid has to do is back up his assertions and he can make a fool out of Romney. If Reid had anything solid, it would be splashed across the media, but it hasn't been. No source, no proof, just a completely unsupported accusation.

Why do I have a feeling most of the people wanting to see Romney's tax records are the same ones who attacked others for wanting to see Obama's birth certificate.
Have to love hypocrisy. Romney has met the requirements and provided everything needed to run for president. End of story. This whole tax nonsense is simply a distraction. And not a very good one.
