Give 'em Hell, Harry!

“Have You No Decency, Sir!” 


Romney’s campaign advisor, Eric Fehrnstrom, had his feelings hurt because Harry Reid has made a strong call to have Mitt Romney publicly disclose his tax returns.  Fox News is shocked, shocked I tell you, that the Senate Majority Leader could stoop so low. 

Isn’t it great to see the Rove-led “Rat F*ckers” finding themselves “Out-F*cked.” 

Senator Reid stated in an interview with Huffington Post that he heard from a former Bain employee that Romney hadn’t paid “any taxes" in the ten years prior to the one-year tax return that he disclosed recently.  As noted by Huff-Post, Reid has doubled-down on his statement:  

 "'So, the word’s out that he hasn’t paid any taxes for 10 years. Let him prove that he has paid taxes, because he hasn’t,' Reid said in a Senate floor speech Thursday…

The Senate Majority Leader also defended himself against accusations that he was spreading false attacks based on an anonymous source, telling Nevada reporters in a Wednesday conference call, ‘I am not basing this on some figment of my imagination. I have had a number of people tell me that’."  

Many of you may have seen Jon Stewart take Harry Reid to task on his statements last night on The Daily Show.  Jon said, “You, Harry Reid, are terrible.”   

Senator Reid isn’t “Terrible.”  He’s simply using a key tactic taken from the Karl Rove – Lee Atwater playbook.  

Who cares if it's true or not - "It's out there."

Brilliant!

I always miss The Daily Show, and unfortunately the link gave a message saying the vieo is not viewable from my location. However, thank you for the post.

There are several conservative leaders who have also strongly called for Romney to release at least 10 years of his tax returns (his father released 12). Perhaps some of them have also heard from former Bain employees regarding zero taxes being paid during this period.

It will be interesting to see if any of them come out with the same declaration before the convention. It could shift the convention outcome in their favor, and force Romney to be more open with the conservative base.
