60. We agree that Mitt must be hiding something; but have we decided what it is?

Did he use so many loopholes that he really didn't pay any taxes for ten years, like Harry Reid says? Were all those loopholes legal? Would they stand up to scrutiny? He used to help church members with their taxes; did he use iffy loopholes to save them money too?

Did Mitt share his tax savvy with the LDS church accountants? Up until a few years ago, I sent my tax forms to the IRS office in Salt Lake City, Utah. Could it be that they covered for members of the church? And finally, another possibility, did he take the tax amnesty deal and now showing past forms would show how much money he cheated the USA out of all those years?
