In reply to the discussion: Reince Priebus: I'm done talking Mitt Romney's tax returns [View all]Warpy
(114,650 posts)Reince, honey, the man is applying for the government's plum job. He has to go through a background check to get hired and showing us what he's done with himself via those tax returns are part of it.
We're not humiliating the man by telling him to piss in a cup in front of strangers. We're telling him to show us a bunch of paperwork. We're not going to go away.
So Reince, honey, the only way to stop talking about his tax returns is to get him to release them. He's a ridiculously rich man and the returns are complicated enough that the IRS didn't want to audit them (it's how they get off the hook). It will likely take until next August to figure out just what the man has stashed overseas and what he's lied about and how many rich man's hobbies he's gotten deductions for. They need to be shown now, however, or he's just going to look more and more like he's got something big to hide.
Which he does. We all know that already.
