Looks like the GOP isn't standing for Sen. Harry Reid's bullying tactics. Reid recently suggested--without a shred of evidence he can share, apparently--that Mitt Romney hadn't paid taxes for quite awhile. Reports the AP:
Top Republicans on Sunday accused Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid of lying by passing along an anonymous claim that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney hasn't paid taxes for 10 years. Republican Party chairman Reince Priebus called Reid a "dirty liar." Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said, "I think he's lying about his statement of knowing something about Romney" and he contended Reid was "making things up to divert the campaign away from the real issues." Reid's spokesman, Adam Jentleson, contended that Republicans were trying to cover up for Romney and the aide repeated the Nevada senator's claims that the source about Romney's taxes is "credible." Other Democrats said Romney could clear up any confusion about his taxes by disclosing them to the public, and the issue was a main talking point on the Sunday news shows.
UPDATE (Guy) - Here's video of Priebus' exchange on This Week. The best part is when George Stephanopoulos seems taken aback by the term "dirty liar" and asks if the RNC Chairman will "stand by" that characterization. Priebus' reply? "I just said it."
Additional props to Priebus starting his answer with a series of slams on the economy, which is the issue Reid is trying to distract from with his pathetic stunt.
Dirty liar horse molester
They call Senator Harry Reid a “Dirty Liar” yet fail to address the rumors regarding his alleged pederasty? (An accusation which has so far not been denied by Senator Reid nor his office.)
Interesting.
Is it true that Rory Reid is the unnatural offspring of Harry Reid and Barney Frank?
Reid behaves like Senator LBJ used to campaign.
I’ve seen it on the internet that Harry Reid’s mother is buried in a dog cemetery in Searchlight, NV.
This will drive this sick little man crazy. Keep up the good work. I think I heard he was taken by aliens and his brain was determined to be so inferior that they just replaced in and sent him back to Earth.
I heard that Harry’s Dad was known to molest goats and burros back in Searchlight.
Reince is just another gift Wisconsin sent the republican party this year.
Senator Reid, Is it true that you still beat your wife???
He sure is
“Y’all notice how the rnc has a backbone when it comes to defending a fellow rino/liberal.How quaint.........”
Maybe it’s because Reince Pribus has more guts than the previous chairman.
I would have added a word between “dirty” and “liar”.
Better to call him a dingy liar.
I dont doubt that but it doesnt change the fact the current rnc chair is also a rino.
Profilers are talking about a specific preference of Dirtbag Harry. He likes his boys around 8 to 10 years old. Not sure yetif it is because they can’t testify at that age or he just likes little lads.
One notices that not one “journalist” has reported that Reid was accused of having kiddie porn on his House computer.
I have heard from an extremely reliable source that Dingy Harry is very fond of goats.
Has he denied it?
Why not?
It's only fair that he clear up these serious accusations.
He should have never taken the job nor sold out to Romney.
Oh, cmon now..
he is telling the truth..
just like I am telling the truth..
I saw him with a 9 year old boy in his car, naked, and in an embrace..
now, charge him and make him prove it to be false...
The fish rots from the head.

You should learn from your tag line.
Traditionally Senators do not call each other liars. They have to use clever twists of their tongues.
either that or we all get on the band wagon and create a new US Senate..I surmise that if obama is reelected by 2016 there won't be a US Congress...he is out to destroy America..
Man.....you REALLY are a glass half full guy!!! ENJOY the MOMENT!!! geesh.
your TAGLINE.........hmmmmmm......you might want to change it.
Their is Clint Eastwood's "Dirty Harry"
And Harry Reid is a Harry for sure...
But he called him "Dirty Liar" which is a way to say he ain't no Dirty Harry.
Dirty Harry in the movies did things his way, was a man of honor, and got it done right or wrong.
Dingy Hairy is none of these... This is a dish served cold people, it is more biting IMHO than anyone sees here...
The problem is that this is a compete setup that is playing out as the Dem want it to.
Instead of Romney vs Obama we have Romney vs Reid. No good. I don’t think Reid has anything to lose here because they know the Senate is going GOP this Fall a d will stay so for a while. I imagine Reid, not wanting to finish out his career as Minority Leader, won’t run again and will retire with his generous Senate pension and hig-dollar residuals provided by the SEIU and Nevada Gaming Commission.
Is 4 times a charm? ;-)
“It’s only fair that he clear up these serious accusations. “
It isn’t the quality of the evidence, rather the seriousness of the charge.
Yeah, I'm aware of how senators are supposed to act, I believe like pompous elitist is the tradition.
Time for real conservatives to break that mold and get down to business.
If who we got now (Mitch McConnell) can't or won't do it, get rid of his sorry a$$.
“Yall notice how the rnc has a backbone when it comes to defending a fellow rino/liberal.How quaint.”
I fully agree with you. The RNC (part of the GOPe) only backs its RINO candidates like slick williard. Reid is no doubt a scumbag and liar....however...so it Mittens.
I would like to see Romney’s income returns for the last 20 years (I suspect he is hiding something). However, I would also like to see Obama release his college and law school records....and to tell Hawaii to let investigators see any and all original documents they possess concerning his birth.(I KNOW he is hiding stuff).
We have all kinds of liars and persons hiding unsavory or embarassing details about their pasts running for office. Unfortunately, some have an (R) behind their name.

I mean who would trust him not to do that?
Maybe it’s you that is the RINO
BUMP
