Here Is Romney’s Official 2011 Tax Return

Mitt Romney paid $1.95 million in federal income taxes on 2011′s investment income of $13.7 million, meaning his effective tax rate was 14.1 percent.

In 2010, Romney paid nearly $3 million in federal income taxes on his 2010 investment income of $21.7 million, meaning his effective tax rate was 13.9 percent.

Of course, the Republican presidential candidate’s tax rate for both years was pushed downwards by the amount he donated to charity.

Romney’s 2011 tax return shows charitable contributions totaling a little over $4 million, meaning he donated 30 percent of his income. Romney’s 2010 tax return shows charitable contribution of almost $3 million, meaning he donated about 11 percent of his income to charity.

And as for the 20-year summary of the GOP candidate’s tax returns his campaign released Friday, Romney donates on average 13.45 percent of his adjusted gross income to charity each year.

“That’s nearly twice the rate of President Obama, who according to his tax returns from 2000 through 2011 donated just less than 7 percent of his adjusted gross income to charities,” the Washington Times notes.

One last thing: Romney’s 2011 tax return shows he claimed a deduction for only $2.25 of the $4 million he donated.

“The Romneys’ generous charitable donations in 2011 would have significantly reduced their tax obligation for the year,” the family’s trustee Brad Malt explains.

“The Romney’s 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,” he adds.

Simply put, because Romney didn’t claim the full deduction his charitable donations entitled him to, he overpaid in taxes to the federal government.

      I hope this satisfies the left. Now that we see he’s given 30% to charity how do you think they will react to that? Frankly, I don’t really care about Romney’s tax returns because he’s done what is required so it’s really a moot point:

      Romney: I haven’t calculated that. I’m happy to go back and look but my view is I’ve paid all the taxes required by law. From time to time I’ve been audited as happens I think to other citizens as well and the accounting firm which prepares y taxes has done a very thorough and complete job pay taxes as legally due. 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.

      Now progressives will feel bad. Not because Romeny gave so much, but because he needs to pay his “fair share” or the country will fail. (I realize that is confabulation). They feel so much it hurts. In fact, they feel so much that they have almost no time for facts, objectivity, or truth.

      Assuming that all of Romney’s charitable donations went to the Church, only a 3rd of it is “tithing” (or whatever amount equals 10% of his increase annually). The other two thirds are charitable contributions in the truest sense of the word. If you know anything about LDS charities, you would know that 100% of donated funds go towards disaster relief, humanitarian aid, and Church welfare initiatives. The human resources used to distribute goods and services are performed on a voluntary basis and most often financed entirely by the volunteers themselves.

      This whole thing is boring….and as hard as they are trying…the news media and the Obama BT Express ……trying to paint Romney as less qualified than Obama is. The facts are obvious. Obama is an under qualified dreamy ideologue…hardly qualified to operate a local ACORN chapter….much less run this mess of a country. Do or say what you liberals will….as much I have issues with Romney…..NONE of them will prevent me from NOT voting for Obama….I am tired of the whole election mess right now….if the country wants 4 more years of this mess…then fine….vote for Obama. I will not being doing so….and there are millions of people just like me. Andrea Mitchell, George Stuffin Envelopes, and all the entire lot of you foaming liberal mind slaves can do your best to paint Romney anyway you wish to. Go ahead….chirp away. Come this November on Election Day…I will walk into the booth and pull the Romney lever….and there is nothing that you all can do about it.

      Simply put, Romney really wants to be President of the United States. If he’d taken all his deductions he’d have only paid around 10% income tax. Politically that would have looked bad, especially since he said he has always paid more than 13% income taxes. So he didn’t take all his deductions, not to be a great human being, because he would have broken a thoughtless claim he made. So he instructed his accounting firm to fix it so it didn’t make a lie out of his previous statements.

      Romney said, “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.”

      Yeah, what happened to that idea? It’s just another flip-flop for political expediency. I can’t believe you swallow this crap.

      @Bobby, The thing that gets me about Mormons is just like the story where Glenn tried his best to explain the, what he called myths, of Mormons. The plurality of marriage. Even Glenn used the same old lie about husbands being killed during their persecution, and that some men had to take on those dead husbands wives to get them across the plains to the west. What a load, and it isn’t even a good lie. The Doctrine & Covenants 132 clearly states that a man of the priesthood could have up to ten wives, IF, they are virgins and IF they have not vowed to another man. Kinda blows that whole widow thing out the window. So if they have to lie about this doctrine, what else do they have to lie about? I really do not care what you think, I am just pointing out facts.
      “61 And again, as pertaining to the law of the priesthood—if any man espouse a virgin, and desire to espouse another, and the first give her consent, and if he espouse the second, and they are virgins, and have vowed to no other man, then is he justified; he cannot commit adultery for they are given unto him; for he cannot commit adultery with that that belongeth unto him and to no one else.
      62 And if he have ten virgins given unto him by this law, he cannot commit adultery, for they belong to him, and they are given unto him; therefore is he justified.
      63 But if one or either of the ten virgins, after she is espoused, shall be with another man, she has committed adultery…” Ne equality for women in this one.

      “We at Mormonism Research Ministry resolve to accomplish the above in a manner that honors the Lord Jesus Christ. Our goal is not just to give compelling arguments that show Mormonism to be in error, but to be used by the Holy Spirit to see lives changed for God’s glory.”

      Just a little clarity, the REASON Romney did not claim ALL of his Contributions to the Mormon Church is because he can wait up to 3 years to revise his returns and if he’d claimed the full contribution credit, his tax rate would have been NINE PERCENT! Guaranteed the day after the election, his accountants will be redoing his tax returns to get all his money back.

      Find it ironic that he sat in a restaurant and said he was UNEMPLOYED in 2011 to connect with the people…We all earn $14M a year when we’re unemployed.

      Me too. The problem with them, though, is their “central planning, lack of understanding their limitations” mentality – it’s almost inbred into them. Also, notice they’re never much on history – often why they usually repeat it (and never the “good” kind). Also, leftists often confuse being educated with being intelligent. They believe that sitting in a classroom for 8 years automatically qualifies you to be in expert in every field or profession. “He’s the smartest guy in the room” kinda gibberish. I know this to be one of the most dangerous characteristics of a leftist because the country ends up with regimes like that of Carter’s and Obama’s.

      Another fatal flaw in leftists is the fact the each new generation of them believes they’re far superior in intelligence to the one that preceded them and it is precisely why each generation tries in vain to make Marxism (or, insert your favorite “collective” “ism”) work. I’ve always argued the most pointed difference between a liberal and conservative is that conservatives learn from their mistakes.

      Every year Romney gets an extention because of the complexity of his returns. I have been told by an IRS employee that the IRS handles millionaires differently than us little people. From year to year they’re on the radar and are reviewed. You can’t tell the bobbleheads this. They’ve gotten rabid about his taxes. There is a law on the books called the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act” that requires these foreign banks to report foreign accounts.

      I am sorry he released them. He should have only done so if Obama released his college records and appointed a special prosecutor to get to the bottom of the national security leaks. But I guess we know now that Harry Reid is a liar, that Joe Biden is a liar and that President Obama is a liar, not that we needed these tax returns to prove Obama is a liar, he lied to us in 2008 and he is lying to us again now.
      No more excuses, No more Obama.

      The liberals better drop this tack as continued harping on this subject will only expose to a larger audience that Romney is everything he says he is and more. Axlerod must be beside himself trying to find an angle that won’t backfire. The problem is Romney and Ryan have led exempelary lives and are men of thier word. If anything this petty shallow slander job only makes the Obama campaign (the Dems) look small, vindictive and shady. Furthermore the continued exposure of Romney’s philantropic activities casts Obama’s and Biden’s pathetic records in this department as shockingly lacking. I guess when a campaign is grasping at any straw this is what you get. Obamas convention speech sounded eerily similar to Carter’s malaise speech in both tone and content….that IMO told me Obama and this vaunted Dem machine that swept him into power 4 years ago is now out of ideas, out of energy, out of empty platitudes and ripe for a Reaganesque style landslide defeat come Nov 6th. They deserve every bit of such a defeat God willing.

Not only did ROMNEY pay all these years, but his bracket was what he said it would be and the part Romney left off was the HUGE amount of $$$ to Charity – every year. SIT ON IT LIBERALS. WHAT ELSE YOU GOT?

    WE AMERICANS have a choice : WE can either go for the COMMUNIST in OFFICE who is determined to bring AMERICA DOWN or we can vote for the AMERICA we know works where every one really has a SHOT.

    IN Obama’s world : IF you are poor you have to stay poor. IS that what we want? What if that’s how we’d been for Henry Ford; Steven Jobs: Bill Gates; and millions of other innovators?! WHILE ALL THE TIME, OBAMA wants to RETAIN CONTROL of ALL OF US…what we think, eat, where we go to school, what we study (even) …. In his arrogance, this dolt actually think he has the answer…NOT GOD, but OBAMA. IF he had any real knowledge of GOD, his Presidency could have been amazing..but his ego, his communism, his marxism and his islamic background just ruined all that.

      Just a question fellow Blaze compatriots………..If Obama is supposedly so smart why is it he has to run absolutely everything by Jarrett ? No one voted V Jarrett into a position of such power. Zero’s entire career has been carefully molded by Jarrett, who was born in, of all places, Iran for God’s sake.

      What I don’t quite understand at least for the time being is the GOP remaining quiet about how Barry and Michelle were both forced to hand in thier law licenses or face being disbarred (in Illinois) or the fact that Jarrett, Zero’s key advisor, was caught up in a major scandal in Chicago (basically raking in millions as a slumlord overseeing Gov’t housing/policy admin etc). It’s all in Michelle Malkins excellent book “Culture of Corruption”. If you want real handle on the Obamas and thier friends from Chicago Malkins book is a must read. It’s an eye opener to say the least.

      I don’t deny that religious organizations do charitable work. They also use tithing money for non charitable works, for instance the Mormon church uses some of their money to support missions for the purpose of converting individuals. Certainly more money goes to a charitable cause if one donates directly to homeless shelter or soup kitchen. I just personally think there is a difference between donating directly to a charity (which a great number of religious people do) and simply donating to a religious institution where this is an obligation as a member to donate. I did not mean to downgrade the great charitable works of churches in this country.

      I did not mean to disrespect the charitable work that churches do. My only point is I believe there is a difference between charitable giving, and being obligated to give money to a religious organization based on your affiliation. Not all of the money that is tithed goes to charitable works, for example the Mormon church spends a large amount of money on missions, i do not personally see proselytizing as charity. If anyone took my statement as an insult to the charity that is done by religious organizations that was not my intention and i apologize.

      @FrankWhite
      When you donate to any organization a portion of that donation would most likely go to advertising to help get more people to donate. For example a soup kitchen some of the donation would go to food and the building other parts will go to letting people know about the soup kitchen, (get the needy to come and get more people to help by seeking volunteers or getting people to donate to the cause), and other administrative costs. How is that different than how a church uses tithing? You used the example “the Mormon church uses some of their money to support missions for the purpose of converting individuals”. How is that different than putting an advertisement in the paper asking for volunteers for a soup kitchen, or paying someone to organize a group of volunteers to go door to door to sale girl scout cookies?

Real believers understand that in order to remain humble one must not let the left hand know what the right one is doing. Good going mr. Romney, win or loose, you are now a winner in my book for by their fruit ye shall know them.

      Exactly!! All this focus on his “cult” is silly. I know good and bad catholics, good and bad JWs, good and bad evangelicals, good and bad agnostics, good and bad gays, EVEN good and bad liberals. The common denominator is that people choose one or the other.

      By their fruits ye shall know them. R&R FTW in 2012!!

      Not only is Romney beyond-belief charitable and all-around hugely successful in his life, if by chance he loses to Obama he would most likely lose graciously, giving thanks to all his supporters and for the opportunity to run. If Obama loses, expect we will be seeing mayhem, chaos and perhaps even worse. ROMNEY/RYAN 2012!

    The Romneys are very generous to charity. People have to understand that this is the second time they’ve been taxed on this money. Once, when he earned it, and now, when the tax is on investment profit.

    And what will make news, unfortunately, is not that he paid such a high percentage to charity, but why, as a “millionaire or billionaire” he had such a low tax rate.

    I hope somebody has the integrity to point out the bigger picture.

      Because he already paid taxes on his money. This is taxes on just the money he made from investments. You know…the money that he already paid taxes on when he earned it and then took a RISK to invest it in the hope of making more. In a world that makes sense, there’d be no reason why he should be giving more of this money to the government since they did NOTHING to help him make it.

      Lets see, he has already paid taxes on the money he earned years ago which he then invested. Sounds like the rest of us who put money away for retirement. Now he is paying taxes again on already taxed money that he draws out of his retirement account. Sounds like every retiree in the country to me. There is a “dividend” tax rate for a purpose, “to help retireee like you and me”. If you raise the “dividend” tax rate to get at Romney, you will also “get” about 100 million retirees also.

      Well, HOPEFULLY THEN @ AUNTMOXIE.com YOU will be a stand-up person and educate any
      detractors who would dare to try to knock him on this. He paid taxes on the income when he earned it and then…wait for it…he has to pay taxes again when it’s income from his investments.

      NO ONE in OBAMA’S administration…even if they DO pay taxes (but that eliminates Geithner et al) can find anything wrong with these taxes. THEY are liars and hysterics so they may try but we have to trust the reasonable American Patriots!!! GO MITT!!!

    That’s an incredible amount of money to give to charitable causes you personally and directly support and believe in. On the other hand, I guess the government could just take it and use it to pander with.

    O no! Now the left will have to write a new talking point! Man he is such a terrible person, he ONLY paid 13%, after he paid a % on the initial income he put into investments. I am a student and paid nothing last year, he paid his “fair share.” Funny how many of my fellow students talk about a “fair share” and yet pay nothing. Hypocritical much?

    Glenn, if God, ‘unalienable’ rights and our Constitution matter more to Mormon and Christian conservative leaders like Romney, Rush, Hannity, O’Liely, etc., than to democrats, then how do you all justify extolling religious and patriotic principles while hypocritically condoning the moral relativism of ignoring Article 2, Section 1, of our Constitution by tolerating the usurpation of the Presidency?

    BO often omits ‘Creator’ when speaking of our ‘unalienable’ rights, reducing rights bestowed by God, to mere privileges permitted by politicians! Dems booed God at their convention.

    BO not ‘natural born citizen’ deductively defined and required for eligibility by Art 2, Sec 1, as born in U.S. to TWO U.S. citizens!*

    Romney can release whatever he wants but it will take a miracle for him to win. Obama will win even if he speaks in sign language during the debates because he is simply the better candidate for this 2012 general election cycle. The GOP is currently on track to loose the house and senate too.

      I’m sure that Obama’s vote count is going to be higher than it should be with all of the dead people who will be voting this year thanks to the successful lobby of the Demoncrats to get the voter ID laws struck down in key battleground states. But I still believe in miracles.
