“I don’t intend to release the tax returns, I don’t,” Romney said on MSNBC, The New York Times pointed out.

Obama's campaign team was quick to pounce on the slip-up on its Twitter account.

OKay. Make that one less Mittens clone to screw up. Make no mistake. Mittens' decision not to release his tax returns will become a prime time problem for him one way or another.

The President released a copy of his full-form birth certificate this year

If the leftist press lies enough does that make it so?

[VinL]

That was no “slip”.

[DoughtyOne]

Mitt’s son is seen as the problem here.

The fact that we don’t have Obama’s supporting documents for his birth on U. S. soil is not seen as a problem.

I think it’s a problem for Romney not to have released his tax records. I also find it a problem that we haven’t seen any of a myriad of documentation related to Obama’s life. In fact, he is the biggest enigma we have had as a president, in a time when his motives should be crystal clear.

I’m pleased as punch to talk about Romney. Perhaps we should wait until 2015 or 16 to do so. That seems to be appropriate for Obama.

Mitt Romney's son stole a bit of the news cycle on Friday after he joked to a group of seniors in New Hampshire that his dad would release his tax records when President Obama released his birth certificate.

Release your tax records immediately, Willard.

[colorado tanker]

I thought it was pretty funny.

Hey, Barry, I'll trade my tax returns for your grades, straight up!

[chrisnj]

This is a good gaffe! Wish all the candidates’s kids make this kind of gaffe!
Every candidate should make it conditional on soetoro/obama releasing his bona-fide before they release their own - it is only fair!

[G Larry]

Shoulda said “College Transcripts”....

MSM didn’t give a damn about bama’s credentials!

"He has not said that he will not do it, he has also not said that he will. I think it's a matter of time until that issue comes up because I think everybody has to get a chance to do that. And so I don't know the answer to that, I'm not sure if he knows the answer to that. But he'll do everything that he needs to," Matt Romney said, according to Patch.com.

Good grief. Like father, like son. A puff of steam has more substance that the ridiculous verbiage in the quote above. YIKES.

[DouglasKC]

Now that’s something. The son of a politician who is obviously well connected politically makes this kind of comment. Really make me wonder how much of the political world knows Obama is a fraud and how much blackmail is going on.

The White Hut wasted no time in pouncing on this.....

Obama team exploits Romney team's birther gaffe

CBS News - ‎53 minutes ago‎

After Mitt Romney's son made a "birther" joke on the campaign trail, he quickly apologized and downplayed the taboo remarks.

[GlockThe Vote]

Mittens Jr. gets points from me for being a birther.

[ansel12]

Mitt Romney, son of a man who never served, who dodged the draft while his father was running as the anti-war, Republican, Presidential candidate in 1968, and whose sons refused to serve.

[Mister Da]

So, Matt Romney is saying his dad has things to hide, just like Obama, & that Romney will not do right by the American people until Obama does. Kinda like a thief who refuses to stop stealing until the other thieves do, first. Very impressive. NOT!!!!!

Two peas in a pod, IMO. Both will say anything to get elected, both are smooth liars, so I expect Romney to govern just like Obama.

I have a bad cold, but that is not why I want to puke.

If the Dems keep pushing the refuse-to-disclose meme, remember that we still dont know the One’s college grades, college thesis, lecture notes as law prof, writings as law-review editor, health records, etc.

By all means let’s have full disclosure if that’s what the Dems really want.

[wolfman23601]

I despise Mitt, but why should he release his tax records? We know he makes a lot of money so the only thing he will get out of releasing them is a months worth of media driven class warfare. I have no intention of supporting the guy, but I am with him on this one.

[missnry]

"He's certainly not afraid of anything, not hiding anything — you know, I heard someone suggest the other day that as soon as Obama releases his grades and birth certificate and sort of a long list of things, then maybe he'd do it. That was just a —"

NOT A GAFFE! Repeat NOT A GAFFE!

NO REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE SHOULD RELEASE A SINGLE ITEM UNTIL OBAMA RELEASES HIS RECORDS! When the media screams their little liberal heads off just remind them of their refusal to vet Barry.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

The President released a copy of his full-form birth certificate this year

No...he didn't.

[Gator113]

Romney’s tax records are securely locked in a vault, at an undisclosed location, someplace in Hawaii.....

[ejonesie22]

So basically Mitts son has more guts than his dad...
