Mitt Romney released his 2011 tax records on
Friday. He paid an effective tax rate of
14.1%, but this was substantially higher than the 9.6% rate he would have paid
if he had claimed all the deductions he was entitled to. Thus, Mitt donated a substantial sum of money
to the IRS in order to fulfill his statement that he has spent at least 13% of his income in federal
income taxes in each of the last 10 years.
This year Mitt made a lot of dough
But what's he paid in taxes though?
He gave a lot to charity,
That's a Mormon verity.
He's generous to the gov'ment too,
Dismissed what he's entitled to.
He lost a lot of cash to get
His tax rate to 14 percent.

Hmm, back in July Mitt was also quoted as saying, "If I had paid more than are legally due, I don’t think I’d be qualified to become president.” Sounds Okey dokey to me
The old Etch a Sketch toy must be getting quite a workout at Romney headquarters.
