Mitt Romney's wife is pushing back on public pressure for her husband to release additional years of personal tax filings.

In an interview set to air Thursday on NBC's "Rock Center," Ann Romney reiterated that her husband won't release more financial records, insisting it would just provide more fodder for Democratic attacks.

"There's nothing we're hiding," Ann Romney told NBC's Natalie Morales.

Asked why her husband isn't more "transparent," Romney seemed to get a bit irritated, leaning forward in her chair to answer questions.

"Have you seen how we are attacked? Have you seen what's happened?" she said. "We have been very transparent to what's legally required of us. But the more we release, the more we get attacked, the more we get questioned, the more we get pushed. And so we have done what's legally required, and there's going to be no more tax releases given."

The idea that the candidates get to decide what you're allowed to know basically died about 20 years ago (if not sooner).

The Romneys will learn.

I could care less about his tax records. Its what he can do for us that matters. We are in crucial times, and obama has dug us into a deep hole. Someone has got to get us outta this mess, and it sure isn't obama. Obama will throw us in the hole and cover it up. Vote obama out!!!!!!!!!!

Pretty sure that Governor Romney isn't the answer. The tax records would likely settle it once and for all. Look, if you're trying to conect with voters and avail yourself of options not open to them--such as off shore accounts for tax shielding purposes--refusing to come clean about it isn't the way to make that connection. Furthermore, it underlines a portion of the problem; the tax loopholes that even Romney and Ryan say they are going to close.

Well, this is a big one.
 
If there is nothing he's hiding then there is nothing to attack him for....the Romneys don't seem especially bright.
 
Wait, If they release more then they will be attacked more by dems?

Multiple choice question:

Their tax returns are hiding something..

a) Good
b) Bad

:lol: She pretty much confessed
 
He is releasing more today - he says it will show he has paid at minimum 13% every year...and renewed the call for Reid and the WH to put up or shut up.
 
As stated.. I would offer to not only release every tax return from youth on up, but all school report cards, driving records, medical records, employee reviews, etc... the minute Obamalama agrees to do the same

You want transparency, do it all the way... and make it across the board

as it stands now, there is no law requiring this action

Yeah sure, but Romney has already said he was scared so he wont make such a proposition

A couple new threads on the false outrage of Romney's tax returns.
Looks like MSNBC has been busy sending out today's orders and talking points.
 
The Romney's will learn???

The idea that the candidates get to decide????

Did you miss this very relevant FACT???

we have done what's legally required

The LAW decides, honey buns, but do keep up the good work :-D
 
Get a life people...they guy has stated it is completely false.
It is NOT HIS RESPONSIBILITY TO DISPROVE A RUMOR A SITTING SENATOR MADE ON THE SENATE FLOOR...IT IS REID'S RESPONSIBILITY TO SHOW HIS "PROOF"
What is wrong with you people? Someone makes a claim - and you are guilty till proven otherwise?????:mad:
 
The more the left calls for tax returns from this point on, the more it makes them look desperate to talk about anything else but Obama's last four years, IMO. How long has this been going on now? How long as Romney refused? Has it stopped the left from claiming that Romney has something to hide? ...that he didn't pay any taxes for a while? ...that he has money stashed overseas? Seems like the left already got what they wanted out of this. Even if he did release his tax returns and it showed all this, what does the left say? "Ah ha! We told you!" Far lefties still don't vote for him, and if calling for his tax returns to no avail is as successful as the left claims it has been so far, confirming everything doesn't really do anything at all. It'd be like "Yea, we know, you told us already. :subdued yay:"
