didn’t I hear her say, on CNN that she said they would be released in April. (Video of a former inverview.)
I can’t imagine that there is anything particularly enlightening in her tax returns other than that she and Bill made a boatload of money.
It’s a sucker play. Her tax returns will show large donations to highly sympathetic charities.
Obama should have instead asked her about her involvement in the 1993 Branch Davidian church burning while she was campaigning in Texas prior to Tuesday.
Ask her if she’d go to war over Kovoso’s “status.”
Ask her if she’d fight al Qaeda in Iraq.
Ask her who hired Craig Livingstone.
Ask her why she fired the whole White House Travel Office.
Ask her if Ira Magaziner will be involved in her new Healthcare plan.
Ask her about Harold Ickes, Terry McAuliffe, and Sidney Blumenthal.
Ask her why convicted thief Sandy Berger is on her campaign payroll.
...But don’t ask her about her tax returns...that’s a setup. She’s going to milk the attention and then GLEEFULLY release them.
>> ‘T is a good time to have a straight-talking national hero on the top of the ticket.
Good point, but Mr. Straight Talk had better get some dough to pay the teevee bill, or they’re gonna turn off his mike.
So far, he’s sent out pleas to the only mailing list he seems to have (conservatives), but wouldn’t you know it, they just aren’t that willing to pony up. Probably saving up for those higher energy bills, once his carbon caps kick in. Or those increased property taxes, to pay for hospitals overrun with illegals.
He can always buy mailing lists from La Raza and from the DNC; that might help a little.
But... tell me, where is he going to get that “moderate” mailing list? Is there even such a thing?
This may be silly because she may have released her returns before November.
Watch her release her 2007 return when it’s prepared and it shows no questionable income. Then she’ll refuse to release any more years by saying something like “enough is never enough with the press” and they’ll just being mean to her. They’ve had plenty of time to arrange their 2007 income so that nothing shows up. I bet we’ll never see the “meaty” years when her and Bill’s net worth skyrocketed.

IMHO, McCain is neither straight talking, nor a "national hero".
