Romney gave 15% to Charity, Obama gave 1%

The MSM will bury this one (as always).

But one question, why would a man who makes $21,000,000.00 per year want the job of POTUS. Must be one hell of an ego trip for them. Guess that's why they all watch out for themselves and not the citizens.

I gave more last year than the V.P. At least of my own money anyway.

A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellow man, which debt he proposes to pay off with your money.

Using percentages and not actual dollars, the common American gives more that the vast majority of politicians.

I hear ya. Looks like someone didn't like me giving more than the V.P. They think I'm a little clueless.

Consider it a compliment. I know that any judgement in the negative is from a liberal, therefore a compliment. The liberals are just too dumb to realize what they are doing.

That's the way liberals think. They want to help those who are unwilling to help themselves as long as they don't have to use their own money.

He gave us Hope and Change, and brought HOME the troops, what more do you rasist crackers want from Him?!

Romney may be in the 15% bracket but he actually paid $450.00 in taxes. He gets to pick and choose where he spends his money. Most middle class people can't do that. Our taxes goes towards supporting mandated programs. He does not support the very country that he wants to lead!

I believe you have a typo in your post. Should have been obama not romney, especially that last sentence.

And the current POTUS and VP do?

Please show us the link which states that romney paid $450.00 in taxes. I recall something quite different.

Also romney, just like every other tax payer cannot dictate where his tax money goes.

First I like to say that I'm sorry you're still a victim. Second, you are right he did give us hope and change. We now hope for a change in the occupant of the White House. I'll give the Pres his due, finished up Iraq (although a bit later than originally intended), got Bin Laden, passed health care bill, made lots of people forget how bad King George II was, caused an earthquake in Japan shutting down Toyota thus allowing Government Motors to retake the lead as #1 auto manufacturer, increased the size and power of the police state, totally ignored the law by appointing people without approval, finally produced a birth form of some type, singlehandedly created huge numbers of minimum wage jobs, shut down oil drilling in the Gulf resulting in the loss of quite a few LA jobs, killed a pipeline that would have created a large number of more than minimum wage jobs, came close to closing Gitmo, sent an extra 30,000 troops to Afghanistan, waged war on behalf of unknown people in Libya, nearly outlawed the internet, signed into law a bill removing the right to trial from American Citizens, filled suit against Americans and the state of Arizona while bullying other states on behalf of people who are in the country illegally and almost admitted he was wrong about something once. That's not bad for three years, can't wait to see what he can accomplish in the next four.

The above statement contains sarcasm, tongue in cheek humor, truth, lies, and other typical political speak. I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to anyone who woke up offended this morning because someone doesn't agree with them or give them everything they have been told they deserve. I would also like to apologize for all the racist crackers I know who have not gotten what they want from President Obama and will never apologize for themselves.

I would have preferred if they had used the same year(s) to compare Romney and Obama's donations.
And do a comparison excluding donations to religious organizations.

I don't you should be allowed to deduct religious contributions on your tax return.

You want to see something funny? Look at who contributed to President Obama in 2008,

http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/contrib.php...

and who is contributing to Romney this year,

http://www.opensecrets.org/pres12/contrib.php...

then compare that to the top contributors to Ron Paul

Without looking at the links Im guessing that the same groups are giving $ to both?

There truly is no difference between Romny and Obama. In fact if you look at the health care act Romney signed into law in MA its more liberal than the one Obama signed. So if you like Obama vote Romney and if you like Romney vote Obama it doesn't really matter as they're 2 sides of the same coin.

The difference is I kind of like the coin but I can't imagine any true conservative finding Romney the least bit attractive as President.

You must already have your psychic brownie badge RJ. Now can you guess which industry it is? Here's a hint "they deal with mortgages"

Did you see where that traitor to his class, Georgie Soros, said "there isn’t all that much difference except for the crowd that they bring with them." about Romney and Obama. Hahahaha.

We as a nation have a deadly illness and these two guys are like hospice care. They can't save you but they'll try to make your last days easier by never telling you you're dying. One wants to bankrupt us with social programs and the other by restoring the cold war and maybe adding a few hot ones.
