They do not want us to know how rich they are
Maybe they were afraid of fanatics who feel people should not be allowed to write books and become wealthy. Making money from writing books is just a terrible thing to do. Obama would never write a book in order to acquire wealth. Oh wait he did, just not nearly as successfully.
Maybe they don't want anyone to know how much they gave to charity. I guess Obama and all of their supporters must give more than 10% of their gross to charity.
Maybe they wanted to hide that they did not dodge their civic duty and in fact paid a much higher percentage of taxes than people in their income range. I wonder if Obama paid a much higher percentage in taxes on his return? After all this tax-return-fuss, I imagine Obama supporters would really want to know.
"Yes we can"
is not to be confused with Deval Patrick's
"Together We Can"
even though it is easy to not only confuse Obamas and Patricks slogans but entire speeches as well. (Is Obama the Axelrod Puppet like Bush the Rove puppet?)
Anyways, this tax-return-non-story, that was created and promoted by the Obama machine, is another excellent example of, "Yes we can" be sleazy and unethical and still convince the masses we smell like roses.
