The Wall Street Journal editorial board on Monday railed against Harry Reids tax accusations against Mitt Romney. Reid claims a Bain Capital investor told him that Romney didnt pay taxes for 10 years. Reid wont reveal his source. Romney has told the Senate Majority Leader to put up, or shut up.
Reids accusations, according to the Journal, are a smear from the fever swamps that say more about Mr. Reids ethics than they do about Mr. Romneys taxes.

Nice try, tools! This isn't about Reid.

(31,706 posts)You know you've drawn blood when you hear the wingnuts squeal as loud as they are...trying all they can to twist and turn things and get on the offensive but it isn't washing. The longer Mittens hides his taxes (which will be forever) the more questions are asked and the only answer remains the same: Show us the taxes. Murdoch's dogs can howl all they want but there's a real nasty message passing through the vast majority of the electorate that does pay taxes and more than the 13.9% Willard claims he paid (which all indications are he's lying) that if he's not trying to hide something then he's gotten special perks and breaks us mere mortals can't. It's a lose/lose that team willard hopes it can outshout or outspin for the next 100 days. Keep hammering!!!

(37,160 posts)Why is it a "smear" to claim Romney didn't pay income taxes? I thought that was the ideal the WSJ crowd strives for?
And the only people living in "fever swamps" are the people who are complaining about Reid but not about Romney putting up.
