Just heard it from pathetic weasel shill Ron Christie on Martin Bashir; expect to hear it all weekend:
Democrats were clamoring for 12 years of Romney's tax returns, and now that he's released a summary of 20 years they are complaining that it's still not enough!
They're trying to focus on the 20 vs 12 years, in order to validate their "it's never enough" meme and ignore the fact they haven't released full returns.

Without the 1040s and all the attachments, there is no proof at all that his summary is true.

it take like 15 minutes to get THAT information and send it out many months ago if it were accurate?

and what is Kolob? seems the Mittster shelters a lot of cash there.

And I don't want a "copy" produced by Rmoney. I want him to authorize the IRS to release the copy on file with them.
