Republicans and Conservate Leaders demand Romney release his tax returns

Yeah, I've heard that, too. Romney has said he meets annually with his church leaders regarding what he owes to them via his complicated financial positions. And Ann Romney made a big deal yesterday in her morning interview about saying they give 10% to their religion.

I think it's because we'll see that Romney has paid little to no tax on his multi-millions, less than 15% he arranged for 2009. Tax experts are pointing out that his 2009 "release" is a farce, as he's not even included all documents, and what was released doesn't make sense.

Romeny has a major problem emerging, and it's that he's repeatedly shown to be a stone cold liar. That's clear through this campaign primary, and the last, aborted campaign in 2008

There is also the worry by some that Romney will inject Mormonism into government, as his church requires, like Dominionism requires of Palin, Santorum, etc.

Edit: and what new Romney story breaks today? More tax evasion, taking a massive charitable deduction for it, and Bain right now killing more American jobs to send them overseas:

WASHINGTON -- Mitt Romney saved himself hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes in 2010 by transferring stock in two companies from his personal account to a nonprofit entity he set up. The stock maneuver included $172,397 in shares of Sensata Technologies, a company now under fire for a high-profile effort to offshore central Illinois jobs to China.
