Romney, Ryan Refuse To Identify Tax Loopholes They’d Close

In separate interviews Sunday, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan refused to identify which tax loopholes they would close in order to pay for their large tax cuts.

On NBC’s “Meet The Press,” Romney dodged multiple questions about which deductions or credits he’d target, saying only that he’ll get rid of “some of the loopholes and deductions at the high end” while seeking to “lower the burden on middle income people.”

Pressed for one specific example, Romney replied, “Well, the specifics are these which is those principles I described are the heart of my policy.”

On ABC’s “This Week,” Ryan also fended off multiple questions about whether the Romney-Ryan tax plan should be taken seriously given its lack of details on which loopholes they would close.

1. Pressed for one specific example, Romney replied, "Vjla, athea oem athea anpem grglll diswpon."

Translated, that means "you'll find out after the election, suckers".

[Horse with no Name]

3. Or "look at my website...there is lots and lots of information there"

Of course, he says this to people who aren't currently holding computers...so, it is a put off.

5. perfect, Scuba

[Vox Moi]

9. Are you sure you translated that correctly?

Other interpretations:

"I already told you people all you need to know."

"If I told you what my plan is you'd vote for Obama."

"Specifics would simply distract the voters from the message I'm sending."

"Look, specifics always generate controversy and I'm a uniter. Standing on principle brings people together. If you want the kind of division and hate that specifics bring to political discussion, talk with Obama."

Same with his RNC speech.

It inspires a potential new slogan:

"Romney/Ryan: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"

Palin's run-on sentences tend to last and last and last.

[tavernier]

25. mumbo jumbo

mumbo jumbo - Meaningless chanting and ritual; nonsensical or pretentious language. This expression evolved as an English rendering for the African deity Mama Dyumbo, whom the Mandingo tribes venerated with mystical rites incomprehensible to the European explorers. The expression is now frequently used to describe senseless or ostentatious language contrived to obscure a topic or befuddle the listener.

Mittens speaks Mandingo! Who knew??
