It is easy for Mitt and his DC ilk to "comply" with law that are written BY lobbyists then passed in the House and Senate by politicians who were bought and paid for by those self same lobbyists!
TPM, What is the point of this? The human love of laughter is universal, and it is one sign of mental health (taking into consideration other factors). I am a Ron Paul supporter, but this video is rhetorically worthless, except that it reinforces the points that Mitt Romney is a likable person with a nice personality and a great family life. This is probably one factor that has made him a success in life. I would prefer Ron Paul, but I can cope with Mitt as President, if necessary.
Oh, Mitt's such a prankster! Why, just the other day he hid our magic underwear under the shed. Well, I'll tell you, it was 10 below zero that night, so as you can imagine, my magic undies were frozen solid. Talk about shrinkage! HA HA HA! It's pretty hard to populate planet Kolob with a frozen weenie! HA HA HA! Oh, Mitt.
@tra12345iscool and it seems the reason these wall street whores get into office is retards like you who vote for whoever the mainstream tells you to.
@kimintexas Wealthy Americans have deposited funds in Cayman bank accounts for decades, and it is legal. Some people are smarter, harder-working, luckier, and more goal-directed than others. This has made Mitt a very wealthy man. Like any smart, rich man, he implements an action plan to legally reduce his tax burden. So what? Lots of Americans should adopt his super work habits, & not live like losers, sucking the Federal Socialist tit.
@Andy180084 Thanks for your thoughts. Our nation is based on laws. We have a capitalist system with extremely complex tax laws. Mitt knows the laws, and he complies with them. Whether you think that is "right" or not is a value judgment.
@bboucharde I'm sorry, but even if he doesn't like it, it doesn't mean he should be able to use his wealth and influence to avoid paying taxes. To me Romney is just another Bush-like neoconservative in an age where noone cares about politics.
@Andy180084 The "Bush-like neoconservative" label applies to both Rick Perry (who is out of the contest) and to Newt Gingrich (except that Newt is twice as smart as G. W. Bush). Romney is actually a fairly moderate politician, and he had to be that way in order to get elected as governor of liberal Massachusetts. Mitt is far more competent than G.W. Bush ever was, but like Obama, Newt, & Santorum, he is closely tied to corporate special interests. That is why I support Ron Paul.
@Andy180084 Thanks for your thoughts. Yes, I think that Ron Paul has superb intentions and that he is a true patriot, though his chances of winning are slim, barring the unforseen watershed change or paradigm shift. My 40 years of following US politics tell me this: The US federal government has become so entwined with peoples' lives, so complex, so massive, and so controlled by special interests, that only a major shock could stop this atrocious borrowing & deficit spending: Hyperinflation.
@boldcreation69 Let's analyze your comment that Mitt is "a joke." (1) He has a net worth between $200 & $250 million. (2) He has a beautiful, large, functional, apparently happy family. (3) He is the former governor of Massachusetts. (4) He holds real [not Affirmative Action] Juris Doctorate/Master of Business Administration degrees from Harvard University. (5) He worked his way to the top of one of the largest and most profitable private equity firms in the USA. So, tell us, what is the joke?
@bboucharde How big someone's bank account is doesn't add ethics to their behavior. He didn't work his way up in bain capital he started at the top because of daddies money. A lot of people have functional apparently happy families. 4) racial slurs are ugly. No, he isn't a joke. He is a very real threat to the American middle class.
@MrGnarus Large bank accounts accrued by intelligence & research are a very positive indicator. You are absolutely wrong to assert that Romney inherited his wealth. He did not---I triple-checked this. At Harvard, he graduated with honors from the law school and in the top 5 percent of his class in the business school, and he did it with many hours of study---the real way. Your view of reality is so different than mine, that any further conversation would waste our time. Carpe diem.

@bboucharde Using bank accounts offshore is basically legal fraud. Just because its legal doesn't mean its the right thing to do, Texan.
