Business Week has a cover story on The Mormon Empire Roman Catholic Church and it's ability to make billions. Then they hide it all....so you won't be able to trace it to Citizens United. Indirectly through separate ownership's you might whittle it all out.

Road Trip: Mormon-in-chief? Latter-day Saints talk about what a President Romney would mean to them
http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/road-trip-mormon-chief-latter-day-saints-talk-112251045.html

Conan, the Roman Catholics are world wide and mostly broke...The LDS is a $50billion+ business that avoids taxation at every turn and has income of several billion a year. Big big diff...

What would have happened if in 2008 when after reviewing Obama's tax return it was discovered Obama gave 5 times more money to Jeremiah Wright's congregation than the US government?

And two, what would have happened if the public found out he did not celebrate Christmas?

RM, looks like this issue will come to light. But the Chicago Mob knows to leave it to supporters like me to ask about this "colony" and the leadership will remain silent unless those tax returns portray flagrant disrespect for our troops and our government services. This is a major issue. It's not about religion...it's about the business of religion and the ferreting out of those in control of the oval office. Obviously, Mitt's not going to be calling the shots as he is incapable.

It was never in the dark. Mitt Romney has never hid his religion from the public. But isn't it refreshing for a candidate to not flaunt their faith for votes?

You, on the other hand, are a religious bigot. You mock people of faith on this forum. No one else on TulsaNow ever brings up religion, but you are obsessed with it and feel compelled to treat any faith as a character flaw.

Our forum is better than that and better than you.

Please go away.

I think TTC goes too far in his criticism, but the LDS church is pretty busy spreading its anti-gay bigotry far and wide, so I have little sympathy for those who give to the cause being called out on it.

Should we expect any other "wives" to come forward in defense of the billionaire %1 candidate who doesn't pay taxes?

"There will be so many things that will be open again for more attack."  COWARDS.

Did it ever occur to "you people" that the Mormon Church might be up to it's neck in Bain and vise-verse? Do you think there might be something in those returns that shows Mittens making investments for the church?

Cults always have their hands in the pockets of their wealthiest followers, no matter what...

Not a fake name Mister America...it's a moniker. Those of us who care not for ego enhancing do this. Who has their real name on here besides Guido? :D



I use my real name here, and so do some others.  It makes us accountable for what we write.  It's part of taking a credible, responsible approach to both our own ideas and those so closely held by our opponents.  It goes a long way toward ensuring that we treat other posters here with dignity and respect. I may vehemently disagree with someone's position, but that is not an excuse for an ad hominem attack.

Leave personal attacks, character assassination, assorted half-truths, lies, and innuendo to Rush Limbaugh, Hannity, and other sock puppets. While it's clearly true that a lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes, we're better than that.  We do not simply make up our own narrative, even if it rings of truthiness, simply because some of our opponents do not allow facts to interfere with a good argument.  Again, we're better than that.

Now, why do I feel that this is a waste of perfectly good pixels?

I did not start the name calling and after 4 or 5 slanderous "ad hominem" darts ... well, what goes around comes around.

I looked up Ed W ...is it listed under Eddie? There were no Dubyah's either.

a %15 rate .... good catch. Uh, wait a minute ... is that the 2010 return that has some missing paper?

I own my airplane personally, not as a business.  I do not use it for business.  It is a toy.

15% is, in this case, a LOT more than paying no tax.

Missing paper?  I don't know, I didn't examine all 203 pages.

$75,000/$21661,344 = .0035 or 0.35%

0.35% of my gross income (a small 3 digit left of the decimal point number) wouldn't cover the expenses of trying to make my airplane a business.
