The System is Rigged!
"Harry, he didn't pay any taxes for ten years."
These are the words allegedly stated by an unnamed Bain investor as recounted by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada). Sen. Reid admits that there is no way to know if these allegations are true if Romney doesn't release his tax returns. And it's true that Reid himself could be lying, but I highly doubt that, as the Senator from Nevada isn't known for his untruths, but rather his quiet and extremely respectful demeanor.
You can read the full story here.
The pressure on Romney to release his tax returns continues to mount, and for good reason. If he has nothing to hide, then he should release them. The decision to not release these returns is doing measurable harm to the Romney campaign, one would think that it would be better to just show everyone what's there. Unless what's there would cause far more harm to his campaign then what is already occurring. The Romney campaign insists that the Governor paid everything he was legally obligated to, and "not a dollar more," and you know what? I believe him. This "Bain investor" may be telling the truth, or he may not be... we don't know. But if it's true, or not entirely true but even close to being true... then I know what Romney is afraid of... he's afraid of showing to the American people just how rigged the current system is. This would not only eviscerate his campaign, but also the Republicans entire argument when it comes to tax policy.

It Started Storming...
So I didn't go to the beach, and I'm stuck inside so I couldn't even lay out in the sun. I am, however, going golfing tomorrow morning.

Long Day Already...
I've been up since 5:30 this morning. I'm home now, but may go to the beach. I would really really like to go to the beach.

Tom Daley
He's 18 now, so I'm allowed to have a crush on him. I shall be watching diving and possibly rooting for Great Britain.

This is the real reason the law was passed, as stated by the Pennsylvania Speaker of the House:

For My Own Amusement
I took this picture at Walt Disney World. I removed the original wording and put in my own, because whenever I see these signs at Disney, this is what I always think of. It makes me giggle.

I Need Submissions!
One of the greatest things about my old blog were the Reader Submissions. Normal guys like you sending me pictures of themselves in various states of undress and arousal. Well, I would like to continue that tradition here. So, if you want to see your cock up in lights, send them my way!
My email address is ronnytheblogger@gmail.com. All I need from you is the picture(s) and a brief note about you, or what you'd like me to say. You can remain as anonymous as you are comfortable with. Also, include a note verifying that you are over 18 years of age.
I'm looking forward to seeing what you've got!
