So let me get this straight, when folks ask Obama for his Birth Certificate, all of the Liberals yell "Poppycock!!!" "That's Bullshit How dare they?".

But when folks ask to see the Republican candidates tax returns, everyone is like... "Well Pony up Boy!! where is it you son of a bitch, what have you got to hide, where's your bloody tax returns? WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW!!!"

Double standard much?

P.S. The returners are no problem with me, I think every candidate or any public official holding any office in America are under an ethical obligation to produce any civil or government documentation, that is requested by anyone, anytime. But I'm not a hypocrite with double standards.

Oh sure he did, sure he did. Immediately after the Donald threatened to fire him.

I heard some idiots on Fox news trying to equate Romney's tax returns to Obama's college transcripts which he apparently didn't release. The sense of false outrage was amusing.

BTW it isnt just liberals that want him to release the returns, pretty much everybody but Romney wants to see them released, granted for their own reasons. I note Ron Paul said no when asked if he would release his. Romney could do the same, but can't because of the speculation as to what is in them may be worse than what is actually in them... may be worse. Regardless this issue shows what a bumbling candidate he is, if he gets through the primaries he probably will loose to Obama.

But you do have to respect his reasoning.

Especially in this materialistic society of petty fucksticks we've become. He would be skewed form here to the ends of the world for his measly paltry income compared to the titans of fraud, he's running against. Not only that, dare I say, it would set precedence that unless you make 7 figures, you better not set your sites on a Presidential campaign, that's a rich mans game for Ballers and Players.

To be clear, I respect his reasoning, but I don't accept it. At least I belive his excuse was an honest one, compared to Romney and Sanitation department.

And what precisely do you think Obama was hiding by not immediately catering to some stupid ass demand for a long-form birth certificate?

Christ, you Republicans are batshit crazy. There's more than enough evidence to convict Obama of crimes against humanity and impeach him, try him in open court, convict him, and sentence him to death by hanging. Yet, you fixate on the bullshit from Fox News instead of the real issues.

If you're going to hate Obama, hate him for the right reasons. There are plenty of them.

So this brings up the real question: Why do Republicans ignore all the atrocities that Obama commits while obsessing over petty and irrelevant issues, most of which are outright lies?

The only logical conclusion I can come up with is that the Republicans, politicians and voters, actually like and want the atrocities to be committed and they would be fine with Obama if he were a Republican. Well, a few would also insist that he is white, but for most the only problem they have with Obama is what logo he wears on his lapel.

Just admit you guys operate on double standards and are lacking principals. I'm not here to debate who hates Obama the most.

What double standard and what specific principles? And who are "you guys"?

I've never supported Obama and if I were in charge, the total revenue and spending of our government on all levels from federal to local would be limited to 10% of GDP by Constitutional Amendment. I'm probably a hell of a lot more fiscally conservative than you.

The only double standard I see on t.v. is Obama adopting Republican plans in their entirety and then being criticized by the Republicans for it. And this has happened a dozen times.

Probably? If you're admittedly conservative at all, then you're more conservative than I am. I'm more of a Democrat than 90% of the people here.

But Old school Democrat, that used language like "the Little Guy" and they stood to be in favor of making sure they got a fair shake. But they meant hard working people, and small businesses, as well as helping people poor and down on their luck get back to being productive. Where as new Liberal thinking is making more poor people in the name of perpetuating the poor's plight.
