Romney declares he is not qualified to be president!

Whoops. =))
"I don’t pay more than are legally due and frankly if I had paid more than are legally due I don’t think I’d be qualified to become president. I’d think people would want me to follow the law and pay only what the tax code requires."

And then he released his tax forms showing he did pay significantly more than he had to:
The Romneys’ generous charitable donations in 2011 would have significantly reduced their tax obligation for the year. The Romneys thus limited their deduction of charitable contributions to conform to the Governor’s statement in August, based upon the January estimate of income, that he paid at least 13% in income taxes in each of the last 10 years.

Way to go, Mitt. L-)

Marina/Ramp: Currently mostly out of Jamestown but spend a lot of time at the other Marinas.

Pre2012-Conley Bottom Mostly, Waitsboro, Alligator I&II ramps, Leesford, Pulaski County Park (when it has water), Grider, State Dock (via boat), and Jamestown are a few places you might find me.

Personally, I am more concerned about how he would run America, not in the money he has or how much in taxes he paid. Although from what I read in the Enquirer today it was a little over 14% and almost 2 million dollars for 2011. He historically gives approximately 30% to his church, about 4 million. It is always brought up by his opponents trying to make us peons feel animosity toward the rich or him out of touch. The way I figure, he worked for it unlike some that got it the old fashion way, given to them. :-?
