"Specifically; If you cut rates by 20% and remove the deductions for home mortgage interest (like it should be removed) and Charitable deductions (which I also think should be removed) and change the child deductions (which should be changed) then both statements could be true"

People have DONE this math, Steve, and it does not compute. There aren't enough deductions to make up for a 20% across the board tax cut. Besides, Romney's specifically stated he NOT going to remove the home mortgage interest deduction or the provision that exempts profits from the sale of a primary residence from taxes.

But, Romneys said so MANY things! Who's to say he's not LYING? You CAN just believe he lying about the things you don't want to believe!
