WASHINGTON -- President Obama is one taxpayer who filed his returns on time. Tax returns released by the White House show Obama and his wife, Michelle, together made $2.7 million last year.
While that's far more than the U.S. median household income of about $50,000, it's also far less than the Obamas made the previous year. In 2007, they made $4.2 million.

I wanna know who did his tax return. I would think a man as smart as he would be able to figure it out himself.

So they made all that money on Obama’s “best sellers”? Who would by those exciting page turners? Maybe thousands of Democrat hacks ordered by their party bosses.

Outrageous. Clearly their incomes need capped. They should be forced to return anything over, say, $500,000.

Their earnings are also in a tax shelter.

That's way too generous.
They already have government housing. I'd give 'em food stamps and call it even.

There was a report here last year that she got a pay raise at her hospital board job, after hubby earmarked money from the federal budget for the hospital. If common folks did that, we be investigated and jailed.

That sure makes me want to pretend I’m black, hang out with a terrorist and organized crime figures, and write a book about my youthful exploits and imaginary father.
How much of my money has he spent on his Wednesday night political orgies... and can I deduct that from my taxes?

Funniest thing was that Joe Biden made a whopping $9k in audiobook royalties for his brilliant autobiography.
His mom learned how to download books this year!
