“If you’re a multimillionaire, Mitt Romney won’t rest until you get a quarter million dollar tax cut. That’s what the Ryan budget does. And Romney likes that. For all we know, Mitt Romney could be one of those who have paid no federal income tax. Thousands of families make more than $1 million, pay nothing in federal income taxes each year. Repeat that Madame President, thousands of families making more than a million dollars a year pay nothing in federal income taxes. Is Mitt Romney among those? We’ll never know since he refuses to release his tax returns for the years before he was running for president,” — HARRY REID (Sept 19,2012)

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Harry Reed may be one of those accepting bribes from the Nevada casinos.

[RexBeach]

“Not this s**t again!”

[bikerman]

Hey Dingy Harry, release your Or are you like the rest of the Rats and owe millions.

[RoosterRedux]

This is a sign of desperation. Obama’s internal polls must look really bad.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Just think, if Reid’s campaign didn’t pass out a bunch of Best Buy gift cards to voters, he would have lost in a landslide

[kimchi lover]

I’d like to haul off and punch this guy. Just once.

[NEMDF]

I heard a couple months ago that he might be some type of child molester. No one can prove he is not.

[muawiyah]

Mitt's one of these guys who just doesn't know when to leave well enough alone. He brought it on himself back there when he let the Carter kid into his fundraising activities.

So, now he complains about those who pay no taxes (heard it myself on the playback of the video) and now he'll have to prove he's not one of them.

BTW, Harry is still scummy but that comes with the territory ~

[Little Ray]

You have admire Harry Reid for one thing: He doesn’t sling mud. He grabs his enemies and drags them into the mud. Wis the ‘Pubbies were as ruthless and vicious.

[Gaffer]

Reid will piss on your leg right in front of you and tell you it’s raining. The penultimate low-life....

[Leep]

Mr Ethics has spoken.

Has Mrs. Ethics weighed in yet? Nancy P-brain that is.

[muawiyah]

This has nothing to do with polls and everything to do with running the ball back on the other team ~ when they just give you the ball.

[goodolemr]

The attacks on Mitt’s tax returns have never really had much of an impact.

[jaydubya2]

"Thousands of families make more than $1 million, pay nothing in federal income taxes each year."

How can that possibly be true? Even if your only earning capital gains, you still pay around 14-15%

[Viennacon]

This was already debunked. Harry Reid is a lying pedarest.

[Vision]

Reid is is the worst low life politician in DC. Even Obama wouldn't try the crap Reid does.

Thanks Las Vegas union vote.

[jaydubya2]

your=you’re

[jaydubya2]

your=you’re

[Starstruck]

I heard a couple months ago that he might be some type of child molester. No one can prove he is not.

It's true. I have a friend in Nevada who verified Harry's proclivities but doesn't want to come forward. Seems Reed's Organized Crime connections are too intimidating.

[John S Mosby]

Time for Mitt to double down on Reid. “Just HOW is it possible for Sen. Reid to be as wealthy as he is on the basis of his Senate pay and his supposedly “modest” investments? What role does the NV Energy being intimidated to accept a contract for a CHINESE owned solar power plant on land that his son, as a lobbyist has arranged for at rockbottom prices, in providing some of that “side” income. For that matter, looking back at various land deals Mr. Reid has done with his political pals, as uncovered by the LA Times in 2007? Perhaps he can explain if HE has ever paid any taxes on these back alley deals?

ROMNEY PEOPLE— are you listening. Do not let the tax thing stand. Reid’s returns which he HAS to file tell the tale. Reveal nothing— flame him.

[funfan]

You don't think Romney paid any Federal income taxes-please he did and plenty I am sure and also gives gobs to charity.

He wasn't complaining he was answering a question from a donor who was at the fundraiser and what he said was the truth. Obama's policies are bad for the US that is why I am voting for Romney.

[ully2]

I have it on good authority that Harry is a goat humper.

I never could understand how a caretaker could pick up a child and shake it so badly as to cause brain damage.

Harry Reid must have been a truly bad kid to have it happen to him.

Is it possible to be a Democrat and use your brain?
I don’t see any proof of it. We are going down the tubes and snotballs like Harry Reid are greasing the skids.

Harry Reid not releasing his own tax returns



LAS VEGAS — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid again deflected questions Monday about releasing his tax returns, even as he continued to pound the demand for Mitt Romney to make more of his own public.

Instead, Reid pointed to the financial disclosure forms he files as a member of Congress, which provide different information.

“I’m a member of Congress now, I don’t make too much money,” said Reid, whose net worth was estimated at $10 million in 2010. “But it’s all listed every year.”

Reid spokesman Adam Jentleson told POLITICO last week that the majority leader will not release his tax returns, writing: “He’s not running for president. … He has of course released more than 30 years of detailed [personal finance disclosures]. There is exponentially more information available to the public about Sen. Reid’s financial life than there is about Mitt Romney’s.”

Conservatives have begun accusing Reid of hypocrisy for his attacks on Romney. And the Las Vegas Review-Journal — in a somewhat different context — on Monday resurrected a 1974 statement in which Reid said: “Any man or woman who will not be completely candid about his or her finances does not deserve to be in public office.”

Asked about that statement at a news conference Monday in Nevada, Reid responded: “In 1974, I wasn’t in Congress.

“All you have to do is go look,” he added. “I file every year, every stock trade, every piece of land I buy, all the money I have, it has the value of my homes, it’s got it all there.”

[2dogjoe]

Dingy Harry. What a moron.

[onyx]

Boo FReepin Hoo, Harry and your Marxist party.

[OB1kNOb]

......and Harry Reid may still be one of those godless, wife beating closet muslim homosexual pedophiles, OCCUPY protesting, elitist one percenters that pays no taxes, until he proves otherwise. And he’s evil to boot.

[Arthur McGowan]

Harry Reid still refuses to provide any evidence that he has never cooked and eaten small children.

[CodeToad]

Is Harry Reid still molesting little boys? I heard he was and he may still be.

[luvbach1]

I’d like to haul off and punch this guy. Just once.

I'd pay $50 just to hit him with a pillow.

[Iron Munro]

[bammynomore]

You bet! The Democrats are cancer on the face of America! Hellooo earth to everyone. Its high time to call your congressMAN and demand they act like MEN. Their all busy running for reelection, no chance of that. Call them and their aides and secretarys and cabana boys or whatever and demand they STAND UP FOR AMERICA! do not negotiate with terrorists. Put a stop to the massive “progressive” onslaught. FIRE THE GOVT!

[Scooter100]

There is NOTHING in ANY of Mitt Romney’s tax returns, his business records, or his home life, that can explain the complete and utter failure of Obama and his deplorable economic and political policies.

[Mr. Silverback]

Said the guy who hasn’t passed a budget in three years. Yawn. It didn’t work the first time you tried it, Harry, or the second.

[IM2MAD]

Didn’t he get a sweetheart deal on some land?

[Mr. Silverback]

No, no, he never touched any kids. He does hump a dog right after breakfast every day though. Prove he doesn’t.

[diamond6]

I heard he married a swine.

Or is he just a pig?

[diamond6]

Hey, I guess Mitt insulted the rich, too!

[atc23]

We get it. The IPhone has ruined posting grammar Grrr. Dont mention it!

[ansel12]

......and Harry Reid may still be one of those godless, wife beating closet muslim homosexual pedophiles, OCCUPY protesting, elitist one percenters that pays no taxes, until he proves otherwise. And he’s evil to boot.

Yet within his religion, he is among the most holy.

Reid isn't just Mormon, he is a Temple Mormon, one who is certified as devout and devoted, it must be verified every two years that he is worthy of that state, and for entrance into the secretive temples which are forbidden to normal Mormons, and his ID must be renewed every year for that purpose.

[Puppage]

I’d like to haul off and punch this guy. Just once.

Careful...he bruises easily.

Harry Reid: "Mitt Romney May Be One of Those Paying No Federal Income Tax"

"HARRY REID MAY BE ONE OF THOSE WITH KIDDIE PORN ON HIS LAPTOP"

[MrB]

Ping the “beating a dead horse” graphic.

[IMR 4350]

Since Harry Palms Reid can't explain where is wealth comes from, he might be involved with the meth trade to school children.

Does Harry Palms have any proof that he is not involved in the meth trade to school children?

He might also be involved in child porn and prostitution.

Since he won't allow anyone access to his office computers there is no reason to believe he isn't involved in child porn and prostitution.

[freeangel]

And Harry Reed may still be a pedophile. Just ask his grandkids.

[dfwgator]

Harry Reid may be one of those who killed five hookers.

[Uncle Ivan]

Harry Reid still needs to come out and prove he wasn't Jeffrey Dahmer's partner in crime.

Two can continue to play at his game.
