Why the 2010 Tax Statement? What about the last 12 years? Romney?

[Firebrand Gary]

We all know that when the Nation as a whole suffers a recession the top 1% has an opportunity to buy up assets and sell them off, in effect it is when the rich become even richer.

It is interesting that Mitt Romney is not willing to follow in his fathers footsteps. Could it be that Mitt made a great deal of money in the last 12 years? Hmm, I suspect that the Romney campaign realizes that when the people find out how much money he eventually made off of everyone else's suffering that they might be in a bit of hot water.

This is a great teaching moment. By Mitt opening up all of his finances and tax records, people will be able to see the clear difference between the 1% and the rest of the country and how they end up after a recession. Two very, very different stories!

2. Pretty dumb holding out with the tax returns.

Everyone running has this kind of crap on their return so why withhold it? It just makes it a bigger issue when it's finally released - and you will have to release it due to increasing pressure to do so. If he would have laid it out there in the first place, no one wold notice or care what's on it.
