Jay Carney: I don’t speak for Reid, but Romney could resolve this by releasing those tax returns

I think Romney should walk out to meet the press carrying a large briefcase. He then states, “This briefcase contains all my tax records for the last 10 years. I will give you this briefcase as soon as Obama signs a release for all his college transcripts. After all, I'm sure he has nothing to hide. Right?”

[detective]

Releasing his tax returns would not in any way “solve” the problem for Romney. It would just make things worse. Every line in his tax returns would be gone over by the Obama Administration and the MSM. There would be demand after demand for additional information. The Romney campaign would be on the defensive for the remainder of the campaign and spend countless man hours researching and responding to one false accusation after another.

Republicans should demand that Obama release the school records and other information he is hiding and lying about. They should offer nothing in return.

Reid should be charged with a felony under the privacy laws that prevent the unauthorized release of confidential IRS information.

Romney should publicly declare that he doesn’t deal in hearsay, or anonymous sources. A first year lawyer would know that, a Obama has claimed he was a lawyer once, or at least played one for the public.

Next the Rats will be asking for Romney’s Facebook password as some employers are now doing.

"Jay, I don't know how you can live with yourself, working in a hate-filled place like this."

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

“So, Carney, when are you going to come out of the closet as a furry?”

[a fool in paradise]

Where is Dingy Harry these days? All of a sudden I'm not seeing his ugly face in the MSM.

Maybe he's in Vegas working on some kinda business.

[Paine in the Neck]

I think Romney should just let this thing fester for a little while. Democrats have nothing else on him and will just make fools of themselves. Especially Reid, let him make stupid statements.

I was at first in favor of the quid pro quo of Romney's tax returns for Obama's records but I'm more of a mind to have Romney hold fast. The 'Rats look terribly desperate in this and it serves to call the attention of those who had given the issue a pass before to the missing Obama records. Romney should let it ride and let the 'Rats immolate themselves with their public thuggishness.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Why do they call it “tax returns” anyway?

I want all the taxes I paid returned. dammit.

Is Barack Obama an Indonesian citizen, Mr. Carney?

you’ll find out when you get him out of the White House ,he’ll go on tour laughing at the USA on how he fooled them all

[canuck_conservative]

reid could solve this even MORE easily by disclosing his ‘source’. As far as I know, reid and/or his ‘source’ are not protected like they would be if reid was a ‘journalist’.

There is no "source".

There never was.

It's a ploy by the Democrats to try to trick Romney into giving them more ammunition to hit him back with - obviously they've got nothing on him now, and are desperate.

[JaguarXKE]

Carney - what a perfect name for the spokesman of the circus that is the Obama administration.

[arasina]

Ever notice that lately when Harry Reid speaks that Jay Carney’s lips move?

LOL - but as a matter of fact, I have. I think it's interesting that the Obama campaign tried to distance The Won from Harry Reid's wild and crazy accusations and then doesn't even say "Duh!" before letting Obama's own press secretary do the same thing.

[MestaMachine]

I know. I was being a little tongue-in-cheeky. To my mind this eminently qualifies for a lawsuit against reid, et al. His first pronouncement was to a reporter. That is malicious libel.

OK, you don't speak for Reid. But do you trade .jpegs with him?

[kiltie65]

Yup, Carney was leading with his chin. Obummer should release his records and RESOLVE those issue.

[VRWC For Truth]

Carney should release his nose from Reid’s posterior.

[bgill]

How about Mr. Transparency releasing his records.

Jay Carney: I don’t speak for Reid, but Romney could resolve this by releasing those tax returns.

A) Let me translate: "I don’t speak for Reid, but        word-for-word recitation of Reid's statement      , and

B) Up the shut f***, you must, hmmmm????

[Vaduz]

Reid makes around 176K a year but he has 10 million where did he get that much money??.
