Obama Says Romney Needs to Be an ‘Open Book’ (As opposed to Obama's composite secret life)
ABC News Radio via KGO ^ | Monday, July 9, 2012

(MANCHESTER, N.H.) -- President Obama is personally calling on Mitt Romney to release more of his tax returns.

In an interview Monday night with Manchester, N.H., ABC affiliate WMUR, Obama stressed the need for transparency when asked whether Romney’s offshore finances, including a Swiss bank account, disqualified him for office or made him unpatriotic.

“What’s important is if you are running for president is that the American people know who you are and what you’ve done and that you’re an open book. And that’s been true of every presidential candidate dating all the way back to Mitt Romney’s father,” Obama told reporter Josh McElveen.

Romney could respond by releasing his kindergarten transcript

then another year of transcripts every day for the next several weeks up through college.

And every day asking obama to do the same.

At least Mitt Romney knows who his father is.

Obama hasn’t got a clue.

Obie is delusional and Romney is just enough of a smart a$$ to make him pay.

Barry teed one up for Mitt with this!

Let’s see how far Mitt hits it.

Shamefully I bet he doesn’t hit it at all.

It's interesting that there are some who believe Obama lied about protecting the US Constitution when he took the oath, lied about Congress being in recess, lied about his school, grades, law license, his travels, his friends, his preacher, his mentors and his faith, yet some of these same people simply refuse to believe that this same man lied about his birth story and feel it's silly and a waste of time to vet him properly as John Mccain was vetted.

Obama continues to hide all of those records even when it would be a political advantage for him.

No, Romney should reveal NOTHING unless he wants Obama to use the info for campaign fodder. Obama goes first...then maybe Romney should release his info. Cannot the Republicans learn to fight like street thugs, or at least military strategists?
It would help once in awhile.

Open book?

Open like “Dreams of my father” and “Audacity of Hope” where you lie and make everything up?

Then Obummer needs to be an open book too. Mitt needs to challenge Obummer to come clean with his records too. I think it would be best to wait to do this at a debate when Obummer doesn’t have a teleprompter to help him and then we can watch him stammer and stutter and lie his way out. He will get flustrated and blame Bush for his problems.

Romney should say “OK, I’ll do what you ask. After you disclose everything about your past. Including the birth certificate, social security records, education records..........all of it.”
