Tax Returns You Can't Xerox

We all know that Barack Obama is all about change you can xerox. But now it appears that the Clintons are in possession of tax returns from 2006 that you can't xerox:

Clinton spokeshole Howard Wolfson: "Their tax returns since they left the White House will be made available on or around April 15."

April 15? What does April 15 have to do with tax returns for the year 2006? April 15 of this year is the deadline for filing your 2007 tax returns not 2006. It's the 2006 tax returns we want. All it takes is a xerox machine for God's sake. This election is too important to deny the voters critical information about the candidates that they should have in order to make their decisions.

So what are the Clinton's hiding? Many people suspect it is has something to do with the Emir of Dubai, one of our dubious "allies" in the war on terror, who was reportedly paying Bill Clinton $10 million a year for doing nothing. The Telegraph has some of the gory details:

Over the last six years, Mr Clinton has struck lucrative consultancy and advisory contracts with a playboy billionaire and done business with a Gulf emir.

He also courted figures ranging from a Central Asian autocrat to Arab sheikhs, as he built his charitable foundation and financed his glitzy presidential library in Little Rock, Arkansas.

In the process he has developed one of the world's leading philanthropic organisations and made himself and his wife Hillary rich - just six years after they were so saddled in debts from investigations into the Whitewater land deal and Monica Lewinsky affair that they had to borrow money from Democratic fund-raising chief Terry McAuliffe to buy a home near New York.

We also know that Bill Clinton is set to cash out of an "investment fund" to the tune of $20 million here sometime soon. We are all eager to hear what sort of services he provided that were worth the princely sum of $20 million. Inquiring minds want to know.

Bill has also been wheeling and dealing with brutal dictators in Asia:

Last month, The New York Times reported that Mr Clinton flew to Kazakhstan on the executive jet of Frank Giustra, a Canadian mining financier and multi-million dollar backer of the Clinton Foundation who was also seeking a contract with the Kazakh government.

Mr Clinton was there to see the work of his Foundation on an Aids project, but also praised President Nursultan Nazarbayev, who has been widely criticised for human rights violations, for "opening up the social and political life of your country".

Bill Clinton has also failed to name the donors for his presidential library which are rumored to include Saudi Arabia. Just how much money did the Saudis funnel to the Clintons? Your guess is as good as mine.

Hillary needs to come forward with her tax returns and she and Bill need to come clean about their ties to the Emir of Dubai and the Saudis. These questions won't go away and they will just become more intense if she were to somehow steal the Democratic presidential nomination from Barack Obama.

Yes, two can play at this game. It's time for a thorough, and I mean a thorough vetting of Bill and Hillary.

It's even worse than you portray: it's not just the '06 returns that are missing, but ALL of them since the Clintons became private citizens.

However, I must say that if the Emir of Dubai paid Bill $10 mil to do nothing, and Bill did it faithfully, the Emir is a great friend of the United States. And, of Hillary.

Scrapiron:

If you haven't paid your taxes and haven't filed a return there is nothing to ZEROX, it might disappear in thin air. Typical criminal democrat and it's not just the Klingtons. It wouldn't surprise me to find that 50%+ of the democrats in congress have criminal records up to and including felonies.
Today they were screaming at the DHS about diversity. This from as big a crowd of incompetent diversity riders you'll ever find. Most racist bunch on earth is the congressional black caucus. and they should be outlawed right after the current bunch are put in prison.

Flint:

So, has Obama made his tax returns public? I ask because I honestly do not know.

I also find it curious that you're so dead set on thoroughly vetting the Clinton's - whom we had 8 years of in the White House - but you don't seem so concerned about Obama.

Lee Ward[TypeKey Profile Page]:

The Clintons will release their tax returns, but will Obama come clean on what he did for indicted crook Tony Rezko to get the hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations and the sweet real estate deal on Obama's sweet Chicago mansion?

What was the quid pro quo? What did Rezko get in return for throwing all of that wealth at Obama?

Obama personally profited from his scummy association with sleaze ball Rezko with that real estate deal -- personally profited - it wasn't just the hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign donations that Rezko pushed towards Obama -- Barack put wealth in his pocket with that mansion deal.

And when asked about his association with Rezko Obama in connection with the real estate deal Obama lied, claiming that the real estate deal happened before Obama knew Rezko was dirty, and that was proven by ABC News to be a flat out lie -- there had been editorials in the Chicago papers for weeks prior to the real estate deal which outlined Rezko's nefarious dealings -- Obama lied.

Why? What is he hiding? We all know Chicago's reputation for dirty politics, and Obambi the Plagiarizer wants us to believe he's innocent -- he just won't answer the hard questions thrown at him.

So with the Clintons releasing their tax records will Obama come clean and answer the questions?

Don't count on it -- not for a second. Obama's "change" will stay firmly in is pocket as much as possible.
