That Doesn't Apply to Me....Next Question

This politician has been on the offensive, saying that Republican Presidential candidate should release more than two years worth of tax returns.

When posed with the same demand, of equal force, the politician runs for cover.

“We spent too much time on that. We should be talking about middle-income tax cuts,”

In my book this is a chicken-s**t play by the former house speaker.  Whats more, the the term "middle-income tax cuts" is dishonest in its design.  What the lady desires to discuss (not act mind you) is raising taxes on rich people.

I would add that I think politicians should not have to release tax returns any more than private individuals.  Those documents include personal things the public does not have a right to know.  I suggest there be specially designed IRS audit to which candidates can voluntarily apply. The results of those special audits can make public a binary (pass/fail) result that serves as proof the taxpayer is or is not compliant with the law.
