I hope your side accepts with grace what is coming....

I'll accept with the example of the reciprocal grace you have shown.

Good grief. It used to be a blood bath. Now it's a "hey we're not responsible for super pacs unlimited influence" blood bath, wink-wink. If voters are actually swayed by the cryptic voice over of doom ads, they deserve to be duped. Pile of horseshit stinking up the joint on both sides of the stall, imo.

Sorry, I think I'm out of cheese related fair photos, but I have a photo shoot at the fair again this year, so if I can capture any good cheese related food shots I will do so.

Maybe one day you will get to our state fair which many call the best in the country. I will be your host.

In a way it's good for Romney. He needs to get slapped up a bit and have his McDonald's card taken and his hair ruffled up and his faced reddened. He needs some adversity to get some tude. A couple of Bruce Lee or Norris movies maybe....

Do you have a copy of his 2009 return? I haven't seen it.

What he needs is a good wingman (woman). He's not a great solo act. Christie would be all over over that cancer ad: Wtf? I'll cut you Jersey style, mofos. How you like me now, f-ing liars? *cue Springsteen song* Romney walks awkwardly on to the set, now endearing in contrast to Christie's My Bodyguard frothing bravado.

Gawd, remember that movie? I love it.

No I havent seen it. Did you read the post? It was all in relation to unreleased tax returns...

No one has. 07-09 are what we've been discussing (main hurt years of economic downturn most likely to have multiple deductions, especially for millionaires). Most importantly, what was the rate? Romney told CBS he'd get back to them (not actually releasing the returns, but looking up the rate which he didn't know off hand). I don't think he will. I think it's lower than 2010 and he thinks that looks bad.

I was hoping for Christie....said that a while back, but I don't know if that's in the cards. Might be a skeleton there somewhere......but hey....if it ain't too bad....

I think my returns look bad too. Do you think 2010 returns offered up a significant improvement? I don't. Why all the fuss about multiple deductions? Do you sit back and disregard deductions when figuring your return? Have you looked at his return and are you at the ready to answer every tax code and detail within? It's fairly crazy.

I'm not running for president. I have my taxes prepared; I can barely remember my multiplication tables.

As for Romney, I am trying to answer the question raised by Shivors: no, McCain was not lying; there will be nothing illegal in Romney's returns. But yes, his filings for 07-09 will probably show a decreased rate due to the economy and legal loopholes/deductions. He's said he will report the rate to the press. The rate, not the returns.
