Romney is just a Wall Streeter
Why are we even considering this individual for president, or ANY public office for that matter, when he should be tarred and feathered?

He pretty much embodies what most of us dislike about those in the corporate world.

OUCH - Romney fails to disclose income
Really?  Does it come as a suprise to anyone that mittens "failed" to mention income derived from a private swisss bank account or other investment funds -ncluding those that derived income from buying mortgage backed securities?

Really?  It only makes him toxic to most of the rest of us.  Toxic.  The Newt is a dirtbag, bet even he is looking good compared to mittens.  Read on.

Do YOU have a Cayman islands account?
Mittens does.:

Although it is not apparent on his financial disclosure form, Mitt Romney has millions of dollars of his personal wealth in investment funds set up in the Cayman Islands, a notorious Caribbean tax haven.

So seriously, THIS is the man people want as president?  The one that will hide his money outside the US in order to avoid the onerous 15% taxe he's currently paying?  Which is well below what most of US in the 99 pay as a percentage.

Mittens only pays 15 percent
More "precisely" he says he pays "about" 15 percent.  SO you can assume it's generally south of that number, but when he releases current return it will be close to that.

Your average family making 50k a year pays more than that when you toss in social security and medicare.

Mittens is going to have to answer this to the rest of us 99 percenters

And this man says he has the know it all to lead the US?

He doesn't work, doesn't know what work is.

Montana vote challenge to Citzens United
The Montana supreme court has thrown down a challenge to the (oxymoron) Citizens United us supreme court ruling of two years ago, stating that Montana is particularly prone to corruption by corporations (like other states are not) and so the states 1912 prohibition must stay in place.

Maybe the supreme court will do the right thing and start to dismantle the monster they created.
