SCANDAL - Thy Name Is Romney! A checklist for the undecided voter to go over.

A Special DU2 Romney Scandal Review :)

So, let's see...

We've got Willard's offshore tax havens, or was he hedging against the American dollar?

Willard claiming he was living in his son's unfinished basement, just so he could vote in the Mass. election.

In July, Obama's campaign said Romney's SEC filings are a potential felony, because he said he quit Bain in the early 2000's, but he told voters it was 1999 to avoid appearing too close to Bain's gloriously greedy actions at the expense of American workers.

Willard going overseas in early August, where he appeared to raise money for his campaign from foreign interests

And his wild choice of a VP pick, Ryan, not only connects Mitt to Paul's nasty anti-poverty, anti-disabled, anti-senior budget, but with Rep. Akin's "legitimate rape" remark being strongly connected to Rep. Ryan and Akin's "Personhood" anti-abortion bill from last year, Mitt Romney is having an awfully bad summer! :)



I know there's plenty more like Mitt's questioning whether Great Britain's people would come together to celebrate and asking if the gov't was ready because of unspecific "disconcerting" issues, but, really - Who wants to vote for a SLIMY POLITICIAN like the one described above!


Add any others...

1. Then there is my favorite--trying to get away with cheating

on either his Utah state tax returns or his Massachusetts state tax returns.

Not to mention, at the same time, possibly perjuring himself about whether he met the residency requirement to run as Governor of Massachusetts.

And my second favorite, bankrupting the Bank of New England, which employed a lot of people in my region, so he could cut a better deal on the Bain loans with FDIC than he could have cut with bank officers. And he did not even thank the American taxpayer for bailing out the depositors of that bank, just so Bain could get a better settlement on its defaulted loans.

And how about deducting the care and feeding of his wife's dressage horse as a business expense to the tune of almost $80K in the one year we have seen returns for so far? And that is the return he prepared hoping he would be showing it to America as the Republican nominee for POTUS.


And we know that the tax returns that he will not show must reveal something worse than that or he would be showing them.

And then there is giving away his kids' pet.

2. New standards of justice
say that it doesn't matter what Romney does because he is firmly in the 1% of most wealthy Americans.
