Remember folks, these are "RELIABLE" sources.....Reid is a chicken fucker!!
Reid and the Dems are just doing all this low ball stuff to appeal to the busy, but uninformed voters out there and he knows the media will see that they hear it all. Too bad, it has to be lies.
Romnry said Reid also has "lost a lot of credibility."
Romney's latest comments came
as two major fact-check sites knocked down Reid's comments, which the senator amplified by repeating them last week on the Senate floor. Reid has said his source is an investor with Romney's former venture capital company Bain.
But PolitiFact wrote that it is "far-fetched" to believe Romney paid no taxes for 10 years. Further, the article stated the obvious -- "Reid has produced no evidence to back up his claim other than attribution to a shadowy anonymous source."
PolitiFact concluded: "Reid has made an extreme claim with nothing solid to back it up." They gave the accusation a "Pants on Fire!" rating.
The Washington Post's fact-check column, too, gave Reid's remark the equivalent of a "Pants on Fire!" score. The Post gave it "four Pinocchios," which is the newspaper's score for a claim they knock down.
"Without seeing Romney's taxes, we cannot definitively prove Reid incorrect. But tax experts say his claim is highly improbable. Reid also has made no effort to explain why his unnamed source would be credible. So, in the absence of more information, it appears he has no basis to make his incendiary claim," the Post wrote.

I read that "four Pinocchios" rating about Reid's unlikely claims. I almost fell off my chair the first time I saw it, and it's still funny right now.
Thanks, AquaAthena. I'm out of rep until midnight, which was past my bedtime last night, so *sigh* I will have to wait to do any repping whatever tonight.
I appreciate your post.
I think if America gets off its competitive binge and pays attention to the real financial problems America is facing right now, it will agree that people worldwide will starve if America doesn't get it together financially.
Obama has 4 months until November. Somehow, I just don't think he's going to fret over a budget. He has to look shovel ready for a photo op, and primping takes a lot more time than sitting down, looking over needs and how much paying power you have to cover them, then doing the necessary things that have to be done that have fallen by the wayside for four years.
Obama SAYS he cares about all those starving folks, he just doesn't know that you have to ARRANGE TO PAY for feeding them by passing an annual budget, and trying to live within its constraints.
When our market does well, the world does well. Fewer people starve. Obama hasn't quite made the connection yet and thinks that insulting his opposition is his only shot at winning re-election.
And Harry Reid is playing a shell game with the American press.
