Willard Mitt Romney Rated III

Well, it now appears that Governor Romney has gone back and had a gander at those flighty tax return thingies, and he says he's paid over 13% on ever' one o' em all the way back to at least the late Devonian Epoch.  Interested party-animals see this article in HuffPo, your source for all things no doubt unfair and unbalanced (and maybe even "unhinged") regarding Republican office-seekers and office-holders. 

Great Father T-Rex!  Mitt must be pathologically arrogant to think that anyone ought to take his word for anything after all the ridiculous stuff he's been pumping into the ether regarding President Obama's policies.

See, there's this notion called "transparency." You may have heard of it sometime or other.  The point is that an office-seeker shouldn't expect the little people -- the plebes if you will -- simply to take his or her word for everything; the governor is asking us Lilliputs for something big, so let's see the tax returns.  Let him put 'em out there and be done with it. Every time he opens his corporate pie-hole without doing so -- no offense since corporate pie-holes are a prominent part of people too, my friends -- he looks even less credible to millions of voters in these United States than he already looks.  (Which is pretty impressively non-credible already, come to think of it.)

And by the way, why on Planet Dollar is Mitt Romney so darned proud when he says he's long paid at least 13%? Or even 20%, counting charity? Does that get one into some kind of honor society in Thurston-Howellville? Most ordinary folk pay MORE THAN THAT, whether they like it or not. All in all, just another silly attempt by a very, very rich man to sound like a social contributor rather than an offshorer and "overseaser" of perhaps too much of his much money to the Caymans and Switzerland.

Go-Bama and Biden Unchained 2012!
