Mitt Romney Actually Says The US Is A ‘Foreign Country’ On His Tax Return

Romney — or his tax preparer — filled his address in the space that reads “If you have a foreign address also complete spaces below.” Apparently, to the Romneys, the U.S.A. is a foreign country.
Given the fact that the vast majority of pages in his his tax return have the word “foreign” on them, is it any wonder.
Rachel Maddow last night called Mitt Romney a “tax avoidance” professional, and said e has spent most of his life arranging his finances so he pays the least amount of taxes as possible.
