"You know, John McCain ran for president and released two years of tax returns. John Kerry ran for president. You know, his wife who has hundreds of millions of dollars, she never released her tax returns. Somehow this wasn't an issue," he said on Fox & Friends


ok fine Mitt if you insist, but guess what?

McSame and Lurch lost.

look on the upside Mitt ... You'll be in good company.

Transparency in government. If you don't care about it I can't change your mind.

I can only imagine you'd like to inspect Obies underwear for yellow stains in the name of transparent government too.

Obama ran on transparency. I would think that you would be mad that he didn't keep his promise. There is no law that says a candidate has to release anything but it has become custom. Of course if someone has planned his or her run for some time then what good are their records. They would have sanitized them years ago or found some way to not release them at all.

I do feel that we, as a potential employer, have a certain "right" to see records that pertain to the candidates. If someone is making hay about their military career then I want to see their military records (hello John Kerry), or if someone is using their educational expertise and credentials (boo Barack Obama), and if they make claims of being against special interests (I see you Al Gore, John Kerry, John Edwards, Barack Obama) then I need to see their records. As for Romney, only the Obama campaign has made any allegations of wrong doing, and that is subject to debate even among democrats, and I don't see that as grounds for concern. Now let someone without an axe to grind can make a credible charge then I may change my mind.

mentally inept is posting a (pointless) HUGS thread complete with vid.
You raised the issue; I responded that I wanted transparency on this subject. Why do you feel the need to go all potty mouth ?

Like i said, if you aren't interested in transparency, I can't talk you into it.

Your over-the-top reaction begs the question, why are you so protective of Obama's academic records ?

and what direct effect would 25 year old records have on the country?

JD, now don't resort to namecalling. CBJ7 has set a high standard for civility on this board, we need to try to maintain it. If he says only Romney needs to be transparent, then that is the case. If Obama keeps information from us, it is because it is for our own good. We don't need to know. But Romney must disclose everything. It's only fair.

the last two lost the election .... if Romney wants to give the public 2 years its fine by me ... he could be right beside the two-fers.

that is all, over roger wilco out

I think Romney should disclose as much as needed. But Obama doesn't need to disclose anything. Obama is only interested in what's best for us. Romney doesn't care about anyone. Therefore, only Romney needs to disclose anything. Have I got that right now?
