Now that Mitt is using his giving to Mormon Church as excuse to hide taxes, should we presume he's hiding Prop 8 $$? http://bit.ly/SsE3WA

@emptywheel Interesting idea. I doubt that he would have had to disclose the money he gave was to specific projects like that.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@Greg_Coogan It's a good question: Did Catholics and Mormons who donated find a way to launder it rhough through a tax donation.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Likely. You would just make it out to the church with a wink and a nudge. No need to specify what it’s for, as it’s just tithing1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@Greg_Coogan Right. "Here's an extra $2 million this year to make sure those nasty gays in CA can't have the same rights I enjoy."1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Wink Wink Nudge Nudge. You got it! I think he is hiding coming clean on overseas accounts. That could have happened in 2009.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@Greg_Coogan I've always said I think there are several reasons. Overseas stuff, his tithing (in whatever way).1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Oh come on, the tithing thing is the dopiest dodge yet. That is grasping at straws after the fact. He isn’t hiding that.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@Greg_Coogan But in this post I noted that pre- or post-tax tithing might matter to Mormons in swing states. http://bit.ly/N3jPn11 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel One thing we do know is whatever it is, it doesn’t reflect well. “I don’t want to show up others with my tithing” is silly.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@Greg_Coogan He didn't say that. He said it's between him and his church. That sounds like someone who has tithed post-tax.
