I realize that he is a politician. No big news here IMO. But does this take away BHO's ability to bring up Romney not paying much in taxes? The story is a little old and dull but the Dems keep pushing it.

No? How would it do that?

Not seeing the dots you're trying to connect. Political donations are not tax-deductible, so if you're implying Obama is using this for tax avoidance, you missed the mark.

I'm still waiting for the board 'conservatives' to make a post that actually has to do with policy. I guess Obama's ambivalence about the order to send in the SEALs is close but this is just sad.

not illegal, and, unlike Gecko, donating/lending to self is not tax avoidance/evasion.

Gecko hiding his $100Ms in wealth from the IRS and probably hiding it from the Mormon sect is NOT an old story. It's a fatal weakness that even his 2011 returns won't overcome.

The guy is a tax cheat and liar, and predatory, destructive capitalist with Other People's Money.

mormon sect non taxable entity, he will just defer all his income to his church, which then gives him a golden handshake under the table

[Latarian Milton]

No? How would it do that?

he even faked a birth certificate for himself and became a legitimate US citizen this way, it seems there's nothing that is really beyond his power to do. oh wait, except live up to his words

The neocons secretly love Obama's policies, as they voted for 8 years of them when they were Dubya's policies.... that's why all they can say about Obama is "FAKE BIRTH CERTIFICATE, AY-RAB LIB'RUL"....
