">>>>>>>>> You mean it's wrong to hold Republicans to the same standards they ask of Democrats ?"
Well, the KEY difference is that a birth certificate is MANDATED to be supplied by a presidential candidate, while tax returns are NOT.
"Where's Romney's birth certificate ? The long form too ."
I don't know, is there any question as to his place of birth? Has he refused to supply it?
"Why can't he release 12 years of tax returns like his father did ? Why can't he release as many as Obama ?"
I am sure he could. Of course, when he DOES< they will beat him over the head with his INCOME and how much he MADE, so he really is in a no win situation.
"Typical Repukes , cry like babies when their stratagies are turned back on them ."
Again, when the documents in question are a MUST release, as opposed to a COULD release, there is a difference in how they should be handled.
-------------------- Why give a "senior" discount, they have had plenty of time to raise the money...

>>>>>>>>>> From the guy who demanded the long form BC .
Really.. I don't think I did, you would have to refresh my memory on that..
So should everyone disclose, should they not, should everyone complain or should everyone just stop asking..

Easy answer from GD, Republicans should stop ASKING, and Democrats should get whatever they ask for immediately, LOL.

Was there ANY question as to where they were born, and were they born to one or more foreign parents? Interestingly enough, while you want to use Rommney's Dad as a reason he should release his tax returns, there was also an issue with George Rommney's place of birth, which was questioned by Democrats at the time. George was born in Mexico, albeit to TWO citizens of the US, while living at a Mormon colony. When his birthplace was questioned, he produced the proof that he was a natural born American citizen.
Of course, you will IGNORE this and continue your double standard.
">>>>>>>>> Sorta like the birthers ."
You DO realize that I am NOT a "birther", and they represent a VERY small minority of the population, right?
">>>>>>> Then every other President had to RIGHT ?"
Every other President has had to verify, when questioned, their citizenship status.

It is mandatory that the President be a natural born citizen.
">>>>>>>>>> Was that the long form ?"
Don't know.

That is a flat out lie. Not only have I NEVER claimed to be a birther, but I have said from the beginning that the birth certificate thing was a red herring. That it was a waste of time, and that he was a natural born US citizen. I can see how you might have been confused, maybe thought I was someone else, etc. But know that I have cleared it up for you, all that is left is your apology.

Releasing his tax returns is not just a democrat request. Plenty of republicans are asking for it, too.

Yeah, but you cannot trust republicans..:) If Mitt Romney were to release them because his father did, a tradition, that would make him resistant to change, keeping the status quo. It seems he is taking the progressive solution, and going with change...:)
Everybody release everything, and everyone will stop asking, and no one can say anyone is hiding anything....
