It feels so good that all those running for the highest offices in the country pay very little tax and scam their states for even more money. Again I must cast a vote between to evils. So when do I get to cast a vote for someone who really cares about the people of this land? The people''s vote really has no weight in this election, just like the last one.

I have said this before but once the election is over and the Palin''s go back to Alaska, they will find that the run for VP is the worst decision they ever made!

bogusbones .... better check facts first before posting.

Here''s CBS''s report on Obama and Biden''s tax returns.
Read and then come back and try to say there''s no bias reporting.

all the other candidates have disclosed their taxes and those returns have been scrutinized in the same manner. remember the obama and mccain homes. biden isn''t worth a plug nickel compared to the rest. the howls would come from hell if she were audited by the IRS and that isn''t a very gentle undertaking believe me. let her take her lumps the way the rest of the candidates have. as usual, short sighted supporters always feel like they are being persecuted.

I don''''t see any reports on tax returns for Obama or Biden!

Yes, it''s always smear tactics with the liberal media.
Obama and Biden made much more $$$ than Palin.

Whatever happened to you news reporters being unbiased and neutral? You are so biased it''s sickening. Why don''t you just report the news and leave out the smear tactics. Your worse than the politicians themselves! I don''t see any reports on tax returns for Obama or Biden!

Their tax returns are none of our business and also for a politician that''s not a lot of money. If she becomes the next VP her salary will go up quite a lot with all of the perks she will receive.

Harleyjames, when you are in a position to possibly become President of the United States, your income taxes are required by law to be an open book. WE have the right to know. It''s not an invasion of privacy, it''s ensuring the the American public knows everything there is to know about the candidates before Nov. 4 so that they can make an intelligent and informed decision when they cast their ballot.
