[EL] Mitt's returns & Obama's records

[Brian Landsberg]

Finally, one might hope, what does this have to do with election law?  Nothing, I would venture.

Not to mention, what is the U. of Columbia?  And if the records from said institution, whatever and wherever it is, are so interesting to Mr. La Rue, why weren't they sought the first time Obama ran for elective office, or the second, or the third?  And why, pray tell, haven't you asked for the President's kindergarten transcript?  Who knows what evil is lurking there?

Pardon my curiosity but just what sort of fraud do you have in mind regarding Obama's Columbia records? His grades from his time at Occidental College (the college he attended before transferring to Columbia)? His grades at Columbia?

Interesting theory the Guardian has about Mitt. Of course, they fail to say that Mitt has no legal obligation to release the tax returns Obama wants. Regardless, I have a proposition: how about Mitt agree to release the returns, right after Obama releases his records from the U of Columbia, including his admissions records. He's been hiding those with nary a word from the media. Some of us think there must be a reason he's hiding them. There are several non-Birther theories to explain why Obama doesn't want us to see those records, each of which, if true, might derail the President's re-election (and at least one of which would implicate the president in fraud). So, let's see media calls for Obama to release his records, too. Then Mitt can release his returns. Sound fair?

The Guardian <http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/aug/17/mitt-romney-tax-returns-voter-fraud-theory?newsfeed=true> reports with the subhead: “There has been much speculation about why Romney refuses to disclose earlier tax returns. Could it be as simple as an address?”
