A brief summary of what we've learned about Romney's taxes:
"For 2011, Romney reported $13,696,951 in income,
mostly on investments. He gave $4,020,772 to charity and paid $1,935,708 in federal
and state income taxes.
Along with the returns, the Romney campaign released a
statement from Price Waterhouse Coopers, based on PWC’s review of the last 20
years of the Romneys’ tax returns. The PWC letter says that the Romneys have
paid both federal and state income taxes each year, with an average annual
effective federal tax rate of 20.20%. For the 20-year period, the total federal
and state taxes owed plus charitable contributions taken as deductions
represented 38.49% of the Romneys’ total adjusted gross income." ~~From
Powerline here
Of course the Dems and the Re-elect Obama Press are spinning this, going over the returns, saying Romney's adjusted the numbers, see! he pays less a percentage of his income than...whatever. Meanwhile, George, Obama's brother lives in a hut in a slum in Africa, and when he needed a $grand for medical, he asked author Dinesh D'Sousa for help, not from his brother.
Doubles rate of Obamas' giving...
Obama said he would be the most transparent president ever.
