6. Roger Ebert does a review of a movie that we have seen before, and will see again and again, with the same review:
3. Timothy Egan takes his turn on Romney and the tax return issue. The "tax return" label really includes Romney's penchant of doing all things foreign as in Swiss and Cayman banks. Keeping a lid on all of that information will eventually lead to his self-destruction:
