He uderstated his income to his Church. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints expects (requires) a 10% tithe.
If Mitt was telling them that he made, say $20Mil, and wrote a $2Mil check to them...WHEN REALLY he was making 100Mil a year, oh, what a shitstorm that would be.

and that this would provide a clue to sheltered income that is, in fact, not reported on his taxes.

Mitt's going to have to stay overseas for awhile, because he's too ironic to pass through a metal detector.

Sofa king funny!

From the evidence it looks like Romney accepted the general IRS amnesty in 2009 and in exchange for admitting he tried to defraud the IRS, was forgiven. However, that requirement that he admit fraud was put there for a reason, so that tax-cheats like Romney wouldn't be able to go Scott-free and they'd have that admission of fraud with them. We are seeing that admission of fraud doing exactly what it was intended to do -- hold Romney accountable for fraud, if he indeed did commit fraud.

So that leaves Romney with the problem of wanting to be president, yet having the admission of Fraud on his IRS record. He's trying to depend on the liars of Fox News and the Republican Tea Party nuts to make enough noise so the Democrats will just forget the whole thing.

I for one cannot and will not forget. Romney has too sleazy a background to forgive him something like Tax Fraud. His activities with Bain where he put thousands of workers out of their jobs and in some cases confiscated their pensions to put into his own bank account are a show-stopper for me.

I am amazed at his arrogance, knowing this stuff is in his background, yet still trying to push his way into the White House. The clown thinks Americans will forgive his sleazy, lying, money-grubbing activities. I won't, and I'm willing to bet I have lots of company.

He could easily have released 7 years of returns, back to 2003, and then claimed that Obama wasn't going to be satisfied with anything with some legitimacy.

It's not by chance that he won't release anything before 2010. Because 2009 proves he is a tax cheat and attempted to defraud the US from owed taxes.

And welcome to DU!

With your permission, I would like to make this post an "OP" in GD.. (Give it a thread of it's own). I see you've been a member since '09. You must feel very strongly about this for this to be your maiden post.

and addressed...with facts not flip flop answers.

I bet there's a lot of interesting stuff going on in them. I hadn't heard the voter fraud thing but that needs to be made much more public.

and he doesn't want them to find out. Apparently Mormon's must give 10% of their earnings to the Mormon church. Since he can't seem to tell the truth about anything he's probably lying about that too.

I appreciate you staying on this subject. It's too important to sweep under the rug.

another, though from a past disclosure statement:

Romney's Iranian Oil Investments Loom During Visit To Israel

How things like this escape media attention is puzzling (not really).

be able to get at the truth and this is the best the GOP has to offer. What an insult they and Mitt are to America

we should ask him how he liked living in his son's basement...

and see if we could trick Mr. Knowitall into correcting us!

I bet it would work!

If these allegations are true and he is still in the race then, this team will drop that bomb on him and it will be over. This campaign is playing to WIN the game! What happens in the dark comes out in the light, and it work both ways, so if not for the need of the corporate punditry to have something to say, this should be a no-contest election with a Democratic majority sweep.
