Hustler Magazine Publisher Offers $1 Million Reward For Romney Tax Returns

reply to post by deadeyedick


You can look it up anywhere - Obama graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard Law. Pretty basic factoid that can be verified from multiple sources.

A friendly reminder...

...to please take a moment to become reacquainted with the original premise of this thread.

Namely: Hustler Magazine Publisher Offers $1 Million Reward For Romney Tax Returns

Any further derailing of this thread will result in post removals. Adherence to this simple request is expected.

No exceptions.

Honestly i did look it up before i posted and a wiki page came up then a bunch of anti obama stories came up.
I know that only proves that people are against him but it seemed kinda one sided like there is no substantial proof of his background.


I don't see how proof of certain records of one candidate compared to proof of other records from a certain candidate is derailment but if the mods say it is then so be it.

Records are records

Hustler has offered rewards like this in the past:

Larry Flynt and HUSTLER Offer a Million Dollar Reward

Have you had sexual encounter with a current member of the United States Congress or a high-ranking government official?

He's a big free speech advocate. This ad is designed to push those boundaries. He offered rewards for Rick Perry Sex Dirt, Larry Craig Sex Dirt (the congressman caught in a gay-sex sting in the airport bathroom), and some others. All of them were pretty funny.

His schooling and when/where he attended those, including the fact he earned a J.D. Magna Cum Laude at Harvard.

He was also elected President of the Law Review at Harvard.

Offer a 1 million dollar reward. Someone gives them the information. Said person gets arrested for illegally obtaining the documents.

Oh how pissed I would be if that happened.

Not only that, but think this one through 1 step further. Your $ 1 Million is then seized under civil forfeiture laws as the proceeds of a criminal act.

The only one laughing would be Hustler......unless Romney wins, in which case..solicitation to commit would be something I'd worry about. So... Talk about an offer no one will ever collect!

God I love Larry. So this means he'll get what he wants because wasn't that the price of the ransom this "anonymous" hacker group was asking for? If Larry goes get his hands on those records the Feds will just take them away from him, right? It's not legal for him to have these documents.

edit: reading through the thread I see this question of legality is being discussed

I"m pretty sure the "anonymous hackers" claiming to have his tax returns were just a bogus claim. Someone on the Webs having a laugh.

The Hustler ad does say "tax returns and/or details of his offshore assets, bank accounts and business partnerships,"

So it doesn't have to be JUST the tax returns. He also doesn't say he'll publish the results, only that he will pay for them. That means if someone (tax attorney, offshore bank manager, etc) already has the info (obtained legally) can potentially cash in. (but don't quote me on that being legal... I'm almost sure it's not).

Coincidental that the hactivist offered to release the tax records for a million dollars, and now hustler is offering that exact same amount for the records? Someone needs to hook up these two soulmates, although the hactivist is probably a scam artist, but I'm sure it's nothing hustler can't handle.

Larry flint is a child molester and a smut king. He has no credibility.
I would not want him in my corner.
manufactured... contempt.wordpress.com/2007/06/16/tonya-flynt-speaks-out-against-the-people-vs-larry-flynt-and-her-father/

My father is a pornographer, a pimp, and a molester of children. I say this with pain and sorrow because in spite of everything he has done, I still love my father. I also say this with fear, because my father has threatened me and my daughter. But I feel I have a responsibility to expose the truth about my father. Making Larry Flynt a hero justifies and makes invisible the harm he has done to women and children. It silences their voices and muffles their cries of pain. This is exactly what Oliver Stone’s movie has done.

Flynt's character will not change the validity of Mitt Romney's tax returns.

In case you are trying to insinuate a correlation of the two.

Ah okay of course, that too makes sense. He'll take any and all info, that is is M.O. no doubt. I do find it curious he is offering the asking price the "anonymous" hackers have held for ransom. Sure could be bull but it could also be for real. Let's be honest, anything connected to the internet is not safe. Cyber security awareness is hard to come by as it is.

Ugh, a child molester? For reals? Now I gotta look into this and see for myself what's doin'

Btw, your linky no worky. Try this link

PPS, here's what Wikipedia says,

en.wikipedia.org...

Flynt disowned his eldest daughter, Tonya Flynt-Vega, after she became a Christian anti-pornography activist. In her 1998 book Hustled, she claims that Flynt sexually abused her as a child, often calling her names.[23] Flynt has denied the charges, claiming to have passed a polygraph test and to be in possession of a tape recording of his daughter admitting she made up the accusations for money.[24]

The correlation would be that the person defending obama by discrediting his opponent and offering money for records is a criminal. It's kinda funny you know birds of a feather.

What i am saying is that i would publicly shun and denounce support from people of this caliber if it was me but what does some dumb redneck know anyway.

I would hardly call him a "defender of Obama" or even a Democrat. He has posted rewards in the past for proof of sexual misconduct against Democrats like the million-dollar reward regarding Monica Lewinsky scandal.

His M.O. is to really push "freedom of speech" boundaries. While I don't doubt this offer is valid, in that he'll actually pay such a reward, I do think he set the bar so high (by demanding the returns by "legally" obtained, with proof) that it's fairly certain no one would ever be able to claim it.

I do think the ad when it is published Sunday will be hilarious.
