Union Carbide killed over 20,000 and injured half a million, Agent Orange caused many thousands of genetic deformities and Occidental killed 167 men on Piper Alpha. Oh and Exxon caused many sea birds and animals to die in Alaska. Obviously shrimps are more important to you than people, remind me again just how much of that oil ended up in Colorado?

Because it wasn't "income" in the conventional sense. He made most of his money through capital gains. It is for this reason that he wouldn't have been subject to the AMT, as far as I am aware. This is why I favor taxing capital gains as regular income - a position that even Obama doesn't seem willing to take, which is unfortunate.

The AMT thing is just a bullshit dodge that Damo heard somewhere (talk radio, most likely) that he repeated here. I was just looking forward to seeing what bullshit Damo would come up with.

Breaking news: An anonymous guy from Occidental College and another anonymous gal from Harvard have told us that Obama got D's in every single class.

Gee golly... how will Obama get out of this corner he is painted in by some anonymous people? Inquiring minds would like to know.

Does the President set Grading policy? I know he sets tax policy.

How long ago was President Obama in Occidental College? How long ago was Willard not releasing his taxes?

Who got in Harvard? One does not get into Harvard with stright D's!

I wanted to elect Colin Powell in 2000, if I had my way Bush would have been only once on the list of Presidents and McCain never would have had a chance, Colin's VP would have ran and it wouldn't have been McCain.

Colin's VP very likely would have been Barak Obama... He endorsed him and all.

The problem is not that Willard failed to pay taxes due, its that he was able to work so many loopholes that he owed 0 in taxes. I never said he did not file his taxes, I said he paid 0 in taxes. Are you incapable of higher thought?

If he doesn't release them (and he hasn't), then it must mean there's something to hide.

RELEASE THEM

the income was predominantly long term cap gains, 'qualified' dividends??? Not saying this is indeed the case, but it is one explanation of what could be. I have no desire to look through his income tax forms to say for sure. The question is... did he do anything illegal?
