Pawlenty: Mitt Romney has ‘paid a lot of taxes’
July 18, 2012 at 6:23 am in West Central Tribune
WASHINGTON (AP) Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty is defending Mitt Romney’s refusal to release more of his income tax returns, arguing “there is no claim or no credible indication” he’s done anything wrong. Continue Reading

Alright lets get this information straight, Pawlenty can claim that Mittmoney has paid more into taxes when we know for a fact after he disclosed his earlier returns that he paid less then average working Americans because of the stocks he invested in making 21M a year. Now since when does Pawlenty have access or full disclosure of Romney’s financial dealings? Mittmoney has numerous investments in off shore accounts and was also the CEO of Bain at the time he was trying to win the Republican nomimation. Why when other Republicans asked for Mittmoney’s returns to be disclosed he still refused to do so? Pawlenty wants a chance at getting the VP nod which seems to motivate his public statement, kind of self serving wouldn’t you agree? I for one could care less if Pawlenty who left this state in financial shambles when he decided to throw his hat into Presidential ring want to be Mittmoney’s VP, but he really doesn’t have a very strong record himself as gov to brag about. Both former governors have poor reords in public office, which really doesn’t work in their favor. I think Pawlenty should wait until all the facts are in before siding with Mittmoney..What bothers me is Republicans can say whatever they feel like saying even demanding the Presidents birth certificate, but as soon as a Republican candidate is asked to disclose information such as tax returns suddenly the party is upset and lashing out! Oh well deal with it…

Carl it is clear you lack information and now you are claiming our President has gang affilations? Lets find out about what Mittmoney is not disclosing in regards to his tax returns, we are not concerned with fairytales in regards to Obama because if what you stated was even close to being true Obama would not be our President. The real story of what Obama accomplished is on the internet for anyone to read. Lets find out why Mittmoney is not disclosing his full tax returns and investments?

No fooling Leroy, how long did it take you to come up with that conclusion? Of course he made more, probably more then all the readers on this site, so what is your point? The fact of the matter is Mitt has off shore acccounts, his investments and the taxes he pays on his income are less then all average Americans, which does comes into question. My next question is why not produce his returns? GOP members cried for Obama’s birth certificate so why not ask Romney for his tax returns. Hey his own fellow Republicans are asking for him to produce his returns. Now if you claim to be the creator of jobs and are able to turn around the economy then why not show us how you did it? Mitt made millions so give us the knowledge of your success and how it will apply to making the economy even better? Simple honest request, nothing more if you are not hiding something?
