Give me three reasons we should investigate or be suspicious?

Are we suspicious and investigate every American citizen who has offshore accounts? Is there a reason Romney's offshore accounts raise a red flag?

Please, educate me.

You guys develope far more conspirosy theories about Obama with less evidence than this.
No, you failed to read again. The current tax laws make a neutral site a necessity for doing certain things. Maybe as governor he can't have any off shore accounts? His wife was selling horses over seas? I don't know if he even did that you are probably just making sh*t up but if he did or didn't I don't care. It's like your stupid horse deduction complaint.

I think he should explain it thoroughly. Don't you?

Educating you takes too long. You don't know why he would have so many accounts offshore and you won't have no curiousity as to why. You only care if someone can prove a crime. Your standard varies for the administration.

Waiting for three reasons we should investigate Romney's accounts. Hell, just give me one. And "Because he is a Republican" does not count. Give me a red flag, Mikeyy. Something to prove this is not yet another baseless, bias attack.

Why? I already have shown you to be a partisan. How many times do I need to do it? I don't care what you believe. I have been doing international business for over 30 years. I am very aware of why people have these accounts. Often it is illegitimate reasons or ways to avoid taxes. Until someone can know more about these accounts it's hard to say. I have never seen a good legit reason for this many accounts. But you are free to believe what you want. I say it needs explained. If you don't care that doesn't surprise or impress me.

Why do you guys always pivot? Can't you just say it looks odd? This thread is about Romney. You guys have been trashing Obama for years now. Lets look at this deal shall we?

So how many off shore accounts have you had in 30 years? How many do you have now?

It doesn't look odd. You're trying to drum something up.
