"The two great bottom-line phrases of modern life are: “Put your money where your mouth is” and, regarding fact-checking and getting to the meat of any operation, “Follow the money.”

Mitt Romney’s mouth is certainly in this country. “Believe in America” is his campaign mantra, as ubiquitous as a pop-up flag on his Web site, and bannered at every rally. The president’s policies, he said this week by way of comparison, “are extraordinarily foreign.”

But Romney’s own money is somewhere else, showing that he’s willing to bet against America — its currency, its tax system, its safety as a place for capital.

Anyone who wants to lead this nation, and stashes millions of dollars in foreign banks, overseas financial havens and byzantine accounts in countries without tax or regulation, had better be prepared to defend that financial betrayal.

Yet Romney will not defend it, even though there’s a decent free-market argument for how his fortune found a refuge offshore.

That’s the crux of one of the biggest obstacles standing between Romney and the White House. The “Swiss-yachting” of Romney is about whether you put your chips on your own country or on other nations.

Romney has shown the same instincts as Eduardo Saverin, a co-founder of Facebook with a net worth of about $2 billion, who chose to renounce his United States citizenship and park his money elsewhere rather than pay American capital gains taxes. This despite the fact that the richest 1 percent in the United States are paying the lowest tax rate in 80 years."

This is one of the lamest things you've ever posted. Really, is that all you've got?

I'm far more concerned with what Obama and Romney are going to do with my money, rather than what they do with their own.



(And truthfully, neither one of them are looking very good in that department)

Again, watch the words......they are the key to a good bias check. "Stashes"? Pretty bad stash if everyone knows where it is. "Byzantine"? Again, must not be too complicated, if the Dems figured out how to find it.

And folks wonder why he wont release more information? Cant imagine why.

Nice artical!

If the rednecks around here could read they might even had read this.....
"Romney promises to govern as he invests. He wants to overhaul the tax system so that overseas profits of American corporations would escape United States taxation. This would create an incentive for corporations to shift even more jobs and capital overseas. Obama, by contrast, wants to give tax credits to companies that make new hires in the United States.":whistle:

If the pseudo intellectuals around here could spell it would be easier for the rednecks to read.

Obama says much, delivers little, other than misery. And just what was the percentage of stimulus funds that went to fund jobs overseas?

Anyone who wants to lead this nation, and stashes millions of dollars in foreign banks, overseas financial havens and byzantine accounts in countries without tax or regulation, had better be prepared to defend that financial betrayal.

I could defend this easily: There's one damn thing I did that was illegal.

Now let's talk about 'financial betrayal' of the American tax payer's dollars.

And the first person that should be held into question about this 'betrayal' is our current JOBS CZAR Jeffrey Immelt.

BIGOT!
