The biggest loophole he plans to shut is the mouth of the far left liberal idiots who keep running their fat mouths about how great Obama is and how he has saved the world from all the evils! He has the same speech he had in 2008 and now in 2012 and is too stupid to get another speech writer! Romney is not going to give the details because this is what Obama wants so he can copy them!

how you say is a moron! The idiots at the DNC who booed each other about taking GOD out of the platform is why the America people know these far left radical liberal nuts are out to lunch. Idiots like Sandra Fluke who wants someone else to pay for her condoms and her abortion is why the majority of Americans understand just how goofy these extreme imbeciles are!

Obama the Alfred E Newman look a like is the biggest radical of all! He wants to make the country a large welfare pot so nobody can reach up and try to get ahead.

The liberal nuts at the convention who talked about how their grandfather & grandmother came to this country with only $5.00 dollars in their pocket and worked two and three jobs to make a better life. Then they talk about their father and mother and how they worked hard to make it better for their kids.

But look at the current generation, they don't want to work and want more handouts! No matter if these morons could find work it is to far below their standard to take a $8.50 per hour job! Well then, how about working two or three of them instead of putting your handout for someone to take care of your sorry rearend! You bunch of liberal Obama suckup idiots!

My apologies to anyone here from last nite who read similar comments of mine. I've researched romney for hours, and have listened to most of what he has said...at the RNC, in interviews etc. I just cant shake the sense that there is something seriously wrong with this man. He is a serial liar, but so unashamedly that it's unnerving. His flip-flopping is beyond flip-flopping....he contradicts himself in the course of one interview. I cant decide if he just thinks he's so above it all that it doesnt matter or if he's on meds or something. Maybe he's a sociopath or a psychopath. There is something missing there, something I cant name yet, but I am VERY intuitive and observant, and he just doesnt seem like a whole person to me. He has gotten so off course he doesnt even remember what he's SUPPOSED to be saying. It's almost like he doesnt want to be President. I have republican friends who are horrified right now, and are trying to decide whether not to vote or to vote obama. They agree that there's something extremely bothersome about this man. Any thoughts? btw, I expect the repubs on this board to dump on me so.....feel free.....'cause I'm seriously just asking for others' opinions on this.

of course romney doesnt know what loopholes to close..he has no interest or intention to cut taxes or help out the american people. the man doesnt know whats its like to have to have an actual job, pay bills, to struggle, etc. dont have $$ ??..just borrow from mom and dad is this jackass' solution to problems. him and Ryan are 2 jackass atheists who want to help out their rich buddies and who desire clout.

Barack Hussein Obama ll is not an American, but an Islamic socialist. Born from a Communist mother and socialist father. Raised in Indonesia by his step-father Lolo Soetoro, then later, sent to Hawaii to live with his Communist grandparents. There, Barry Soetoro (only 10 yrs. old) was mentored by a known Communist, Frank Marshall Davis and Barry’s grandparents, until he graduated from high school.

Barry entered Occidental College as Barry Soetoro, an exchange student from Indonesia. Two years later, he enrolled @ Columbia University where Obama networks with Marxist professors/followers, black radicals and Pakistani students.

After graduating from Harvard Law School, Obama meets Bill Ayers, known terrorist and co-founder of the Underground Weather. Obama is inspired by Ayers to run for public office and is supported by the “New Party”, an organization that was originally called the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA).

Barack Obama’s 20 yr. association with the Rev. Jeremiah Wright had left Obama with many political scars and enhanced Obama’s desire for social order in government.

Today, Barack Obama still claims his devotion to Islam, while mocking Christianity. President Barack Obama plans to cut military spending in half, eliminating 80% of our defense weapons, including nuclear weapons and make the US dependent of energy, especially from petroleum oil. The economy is sliding back into recession, with a good chance to hit rock bottom. If this happens, the free world, as we know it, will be devastated. It will be then when the Islamic nations take over, with the help of Russia, ending democracy.

There is a dark side of Barack Obama that separates his ideals from those who live and believe in “We the People………….”. Form your own opinion, if you like, but mine rests heavily on the future of our great nation.

May God bless America.

I see the right wing using the word stupid and the word intelligence. They say get educated. Let’s talk about that.

Romney’s budget includes 5 trillion in tax reductions. 5 trillion less income for the government. And it includes 2 trillion in additional defense spending. 2 trillion in new expenses. That’s a total of 7 trillion. So they are going to add this to the national debt? They say no. That they are going to close loopholes and eliminate deductions. So what can they close or eliminate?

One of the big ones is the mortgage interest deduction which is about one trillion. 90% of this will come from the middle class and decimate an already weak housing market. Home values will drop like a rock. I’ll explain if you don’t know why – just ask. Another big one is state and local taxes. Also almost all from the middle class. You will be paying double taxes on your state income tax and your property tax. This will further damage the housing market. Contributions to charity? Many if not most charitable organizations will have to close and Romney might get kicked out of the Mormon church when they stop getting that 10%. The Catholics won’t be happy with him either. There is some other smaller stuff but nothing that would come close to covering the 7 trillion. Or even the 2 trillion of increased defense spending.

This is what you people like to call “drinking the kool-aid” But you are the ones doing the drinking. This is what Clinton called “arithmetic” in his speech. Elementary school arithmetic. All democrats and even some republicans like George Will say they don’t understand. And Romney/Ryan won’t tell us the details. Why? Because there are no details to tell. What they want to do would be a bigger disaster for this country than we enjoyed with Bush and Cheney.

Romney doesn't want to be president to help the United States citizens, he wants to be president, so that he can brag on himself, just like he brags about how much money he has screwed american workers, companies and the IRS out of. He's just your typical blow hard republican puke!!! I just want his lies to catch up with him, so that karma can come around and bite him in the A$$. Don't laugh repugs, karma has a way of dealing with bad people like Liar Romney and Lyin Ryan.

O&Joe 2012

Romney says on Meet the Press that there are parts of Obamacare that he likes and wants to keep. 2 or 3 hours later, the Romney campaign corrects him and says that Romney doesn’t like any part of Obamacare and doesn’t want to keep any of it. Does it disturb any of you right wingers that Romney is not making the decisions about what he likes and what he wants to do as president? Do you know who is making those decisions? Do you know who would be running the country if Romney got elected? Do you care?

Specifics, Obamas plan is specific, we're going to stay on this failed track for the next four years, no need to change this is working just fine, at least for those that are working .

Funny how the Obama camp is demanding details from Romney when all we got from Obama in 2008 was hope and change, yes we can.

Willard's tax cuts for the wealthy will cost $5 trillion over ten years. Couple that with the $2 trillion in INCREASED SPENDING he wants on defense and were looking at an ADDITIONAL $7 trillion in debt. What loopholes and deductions are you going to eliminate to make that up Willard?

Romney is going to close the loopholes that he used to launder his money through so the money he hasn't paid taxes on cannot be tracked.

He will try to open up other loopholes such as the Death Tax where taxes are removed on money and items given to others in a will upon their death.

Theoretically Romney could bring money in from his campaigning then give it as a gift to someone who is old where they then will it to someone else that is aligned with Romney where upon their death the money from the campaign who find its way back into the hands of Romney that because of it being donated to him he does not have to pay taxes on it.

With the Death Tax repelled he wouldn't have to pay taxes on it through willing it to someone else.

Is a car elevator deductible?

This is always the problem. These 2 crooked parties have certain platforms that individuals think they have to follow and voters are so stupid that they can't see how ridiculous this is. It is always the dems that are supposed to spend and take care of the needy and the hurting and repubs who are the kings of tax cuts and defenders of the business. Well people that is BS and anyone who buys into is never going to understand. Do you actually believe the present admin is going to stand in the way of any benefits to corporations or tax cuts to anyone??? No way they are as much in the hip pockets of big business as the repubs. And do you think for one moment repubs would stand in the way of any spending bills that would hurt their chance of getting re-elected??? No way. All DC is about is gaining money and power and getting re-elected. People are struggling right now so what if you give them a small tax cut. To an individual it really means nothing. But to the United States it could mean billions. If this tax cut is handed out then will DC cut spending to match it???? Heck no they will increase spending because the repubs in order to look good and get the cuts will have to pay off the dems so they look good in maybe increased spending for unemployment or welfare assistance programs. Who is the winner???? Surely not the US workers. The only winners ever are the politicians and those who live off of the government and it will never change unless we send a message to DC by voting out every incumbent and letting them know we will do this every election until you realize it is the citizens of the US who run this country, not big business and big government.

Let me see, the democrats were in total control from Jan. 2008 until Jan. 2011 and all they accomplished was passing a health care bill that none of them had read. Sounds like a pretty smart group to me if you are still in high school, which I think this administration qualifies. Obama specifics are Bush did it. I am still the victim says our chief dufus.

If I was RomneyI wouldn't tip my hand either. Obamamama hasn't had an original thought since he took office. If Mitt told, Obamamamamama would probably impliment immediately to help secure another 4 years. If I was Mitt, I'd simply say," I have a DEFINITE Plan. I also have a team selected to jump on this from the git-go. I;m not hiring X-Wallstreet people who can't find jobs in the private sector. I have tried and proven people from the business industries that understands business, government, spending and they will GET THE JOB DONE. No more entitlements without more of a thought process other than getting reelectedf.

Beardown.....Obviously you have never worked for a private(non-governmental) job. If you had you would understand when a company hires a NEW CEO it's usually , BASED ON THAT PERSONS PAST EXPERIENCE, to turn the company around. Highly paid, ususally, because of their background and knowleget. A good CEO doesn't concentrate on BLAMING the last CEO, his job, regardless of who created the mess is to get in there, roll up his sleeves, hire people he may have worked with previously who have a GOOD TRACK RECORD, and clean up the mess. Obamamama hasn't done this because he is incapable. He has no background experiece to draw from. He has only fly-by night young inexperienced X-Wall Street executives and they are obviously more of a hinderance than a help. If, you're in favor of continued spending (throwing good money after bad) then Obamamama is your man. If you want to see a smaller Government, Reduced Spending, More accountability, then Mitt is the person. Unfortunately, you're a die-hard Democrat, regardless of the qualifications of the individual and therefore you have the inability of foresight. I vote for the person (with the qualifications) not the party. I even voted for Cllinton twice. Foolishly I even voted for Carter and rightfully, at the time Kennedy.....but to vote for Obamama AGAIN!!!! is total stupidity. Chew on this for a while !!!!

Romney/Ryan:

We have a plan to create jobs, but we can't tell you what it is.

We have a plan to close loopholes for the billionaires, but we can't tell you what it is.

We have a plan to reduce the debt, but we can't tell you what it is.

We have a plan to shrink the budget, but we can't tell you what it is.

We have a plan to fix the economy, but we can't tell you what it is.

We have a plan, but we haven't seen it yet.

Can't believe I was so wrong. So what's being said is that it's ok to spend more that we take in ( AKA) bankruptcy, as long as we spend it DIFFERENTLY. I can't help but laugh. Your logic is why we owe China 2.6 Trillion, why GM has 25 BILLION of our money that they won't have to pay back. This is why all the Green Companies Obmamamama financed went bankrupt. THAT'S ok because Trial and Error is O K as long as it the publics money. That's ok to cut Can't believe anyone thinks its OK to spend your way out of trouble. But, in the long run, I guess I do agree with you, what the hell, it isn't my money and doesn't directly affect me.

Romney has his plan, but he will not disclose it because he knows it would destroy his chances for election. If he even thinks along the lines of Ryan, then we are in for a rude awakening in the middle-class because the Ryan Plan is a path to raising the wealthy and lowering the middle-class with tax modifications, a health plan designed to take away benefits for the poor and retired, and a new retirement system which will diminish the security of retirees who lack the wealth that Romney enjoys. This man is an unspeakably disaster to every individual who does not share in his greed or his lack of concern for the average working American and our next generation. Not only will the Romney/Ryan policies not work, but they are even worst than one can imagine. There is a very good reason that neither man will give any details when questioned. It's not that they don't know the details, but rather they know how distasteful they would be to 98% of Americans. I strongly urge each and every American to go online and read the 'The Ryan Plan' under HR 4529. Then consider your vote. This is for every Democrat and Republican who might have concern for their future and that of their family.

On the one hand he says ... "... the taxes people pay stays the same."

Then in almost the same breath he says ... "small business is able to keep more of what it makes."

H'UH ... ? How do you have a system were what you pay is the same, but you get to keep more of what you make ??? Does he REALIZE how idiotic he sounds???

Romney: "We'll close all the loopholes I don't use."

Can Willard deduct the salary of the lobbyist that comes with his new mansion?

Why do they keep asking Romney about this? The answer is obvious and to find it you simply have to look back at the reign of their hero, Ronald Reagen. It was during his administration that deductions for interest paid on car loans, credit cards, and personal loans were eliminated causing taxes on the middle class and the poor to go up. About the only thing left is the mortgage interest deduction. Well guess what? It's on the chopping block along with the deduction for employer paid medical plans. I don't know about you but without those deductions my tax bill would go up about $1500 a year. I don't know who's doing their math but it sure doesn't sound like a tax cut for the middle class to me.

Willard won't name what deductions he would end and Ryan says they will leave it up to congress. Every tax deduction comes with a lobbyist to ensure that it continues, except of course the ones that benefit the middle class.

Who do you think will lose in that situation?
