    Mitt Romney gave $4 million to Charity last year.......Obama has a brother living in a hut, pooing in a bucket, survivng on discarded dog food.

    Now it is said one cares about Poor People......and that the other could care less.....in your opinion, which one is which?

    Romney gave $4 million dollars to Charity last year.....and has consistently given around 30% of his income to charity throughout his life. In the years prior to running for President......Obama gave $2,500....$3,400...$1,050.....a whopping 1%.

    I would contend anyone can be charitable with "other people's money"......but the true testament to character is one's ability to dip into their own pockets.....to share bread from their own table....

    ....and if I happened to be poor or destitute, broken down on the side of the road or residing in a hut......I would expect to see help from Romney...... before Obama would drop a dime or bat a lash.

    My prediction is that neither of them would help you. QED.

    It can be verified by Romney's Tax Returns.....

    ......which he has released......despite Democrat acting like Stevie Wonder on the issue.

    His charitable deductions were itemized? I don't believe so. Again, what charities is he supporting?

    So now you need a list of itemized deductions? What are you trying to get at?

    What Charities was Obama supporting with his $1050.00?.....did you get that list?

    What Charities did AlGOre and Joe Biden divide their $300 between?

    Does the Moron Church count as a charity?

    Romney is earning 20 million a year and paying 14% in taxes (lower than someone making 80k a year)...

    Exactly where I was going; I don't think giving 4 million dollars to the Mormon Church is "helping the poor."

    Looks like Romney pays more in taxes in one year than most of you will pay your entire life.

    On top of that, he gives a lot to charity/mormom church.

    I don't see why folks attack him for his money. Like attacking Obama as a Muslim

    What charity(s)?

    Probably something like "The Committee to Eliminate Poor People by Eating them."

    It's not Obama's direct brother..That is his half brother. They are not close, they have only met once that I know of. His half brother said, "Obama is helping me by helping the world". His brother isn't asking for financial help....

    Also Romney donated to the charity, "mormon church" to keep his taxes low. http://www.thenation.com/blog/170105/romneys-ungenerous-donations#

    Trash post..........

    That 14% is added on top of the orginal tax he already paid on it you realize.

    Good thing Obama doesn't try and weasel out of taxes like Romney huh?

    http://www.bluegrasspundit.com/2012/04/obama-uses-kids-to-tax-shelter-48000.html

    Now before you whine that the amounts actually matter you have to remember that its the principle of it. If Obama is a cheater he will cheat no matter how much money he has.

    Time for Obama to man up and quit using his kids as tax shelters. He needs to pay his fair share!

    ...I don't think you know what a tax shelter is, because this certainly isn't one.

    a
    Figures that you wouldn't understand that Capital gains are made on previously taxed dollars. :roll:

    Would you prefer that people who normally would put their after-income tax money at risk in various investment forms instead just band them up in bricks and put them in a safety deposit box?

    Why should tax rates be as high for investments which require the decision to place assets at risk which don,t have to be

    I'm looking for an explanation of how the same dollar is taxed twice by capital gains. You've yet to prove it.
