Romney gave so much less by percentage of his UNEARNED income, there is no comparison; Romney gives primarily to his church, that "7 million" is maybe a month so of INTEREST off his 1/4 BILLION in wealth. NO SCARIFICE, ever.
The church doesn't count, why is that..?
Mormons fled from the U.S. to Mexico to avoid persecution for polygamy.
When the U.S. won the war with Mexico, Salt Lake became part of U.S. territory.

Obamas father was a polygamist .. He was married to a Kenyan women when he married Obama mama . Left her when Obama was a baby did not divorce , married another American women and took her to Kenya where he has another child with his first wife who he later or finally divorced.. This is in his book man.read it.

Then the US made them become more Americanized by giving up the polygamy and theocracy before we would let them become a state.
The US also continued to chop up their territory everytime a gold strike was found so they couldn't accumulate too much money. Him giving so much to his church is not very American
I'm sure you consider Tom Cruise's payments to the "Church" of Scientology contributions to charity, too?Gads, that will affect your tax rate, I'm thinkin.
Obama, over the years is a proven a cheap, penny pinching bastard and of course a liberal.

The Romney tax returns offer a window into an area of public life that matters a great deal but is rarely discussed: charitable contributions.
It confirms long-term pattern for both Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama, in which the Romneys have generally paid a lower tax rate than the Obamas, but given more to charity. In recent years only, the relative contributions to charity from the two couples have moved closer together.
In 2011, the Romneys donated about 29% of their income to charity $4 million out of their total $13.7 million in income. For 2010, they donated about 13.8% of their income, $2.98 million out of $21.6 million. Over a 20-year period, the Romneys gave to charity an average of 13.45% of their adjusted gross income, according to an accountants letter they provided on Friday.
The information released by the Romney camp Friday also made a point of noting that in combination the Romneys have paid close to 40% on average of their adjusted gross income to various taxes and charities. By any measure, thats a big number.
Mr. Obama and wife Michelle gave $172,130, or roughly 21.8% of their income, to charity in 2011, and about 14.2% in 2010. That was up from 5.9% in 2009. The Obamas gave between 4.7% and 6.5% of their income to charity between 2005 and 2008. The Obamas income shrank in 2011, to about $790,000, compared to earlier years, helping to boost their percentage.
The Republican candidates giving reflects a tendency his party would like to see replicated more widely. Republicans favor a world in which people pay fewer taxes and give more to charity, believing that private spending is more effective than that of the federal government.

Politics aside, Romney's multi-million dollar contributions to charity are ignored while Obama's claim to fame is his use of someone else's money.
Stale story, Romney DIDN'T write it all off because his tax rate would have been even lower. First time KNOWN for him, could be why he won't release more returns, he writes off all he can UNLESS he is running for office and wants to look like a bit more like a genuine American tax payer. Othewise, he would be a tax exile in the Caymen islands. Speaking of PATRIOTISM, DODGING taxes shows no love for the USA.
Romney follows the law, just like Obama, Soros and Buffett's secretary. (Buffett doesn't, he's settling his tax fraud case).
That's not dodging taxes.

How so, Sarah G... ?
And the Mormon "church" has only contributed $350 million (in cash, BTW) to charity out of all the billions they have extorted.

So I guess when the President says that the wealthiest Americans can afford to pay a little more in taxes,
to help deal with our fiscal situation,
the Romney example proves that President Obama is absolutely correct.

You seem to be missing the concept of individual charity...
Now, if you're trying to say Obama/Democrats/Liberals have turned America into a charity case, I get your drift.

What percent of your income do you give to charity?
Early on in Obama's presidency, he cut the amount of charity contributions that could be written off for taxes too. He wants us to grateful we're at the government's teet.
