Mitt And Ann, Show Us The Tax Returns

One of the things I'm chuckling about as this 2012 election campaign mercifully enters the home stretch is how much tap dancing Mittbot and his beloved wife are doing to avoid by any means necessary showing more than two years of his tax returns. 

You and your stay at home 1% wife Ann can whine all you want, but the bottom line is that you are running for the presidency.   If you didn't want the media and the electorate asking legitimate questions about your finances, then you shouldn't have run for president. 

And sending your wife out to cover for you isn't going to change things either.

If giving 23 years of tax returns to the McCain campaign when you were vetted for the vice presidency in 2008 was okay then, and you asked for multiple years for your own vice presidential nominee, then it's good enough for those of us who have inquiring minds about just what information is in those tax returns you don't want to come out?

So pull up the temple garments and deal with it because politics is a contact sport.   You will not be allowed to give vague non-answers to questions the voting public has a right to know about you and think you'll slide into the presidency by riding the bigot vote into office.   .     .  

Neither one of you peeps word is good enough when you claim you've paid your taxes and given your 10% in tithes to the Mormon church.  Mitt lies on a daily basis on the campaign trail about everything else including his records in government and his business dealings, so why should we presume that he isn't lying when it comes to this topic as well?.

You say that the charges that you haven't paid taxes for several years are false, only one way to prove that, especially in light of the fact that President Obama has released his tax returns back to 2000. . 

So what's stopping you from not only matching that, but the precedent your own father set when he ran for the presidency in 1968?

Mitt and Ann, show us the tax returns.
