The GOP keeps accusing Harry Reid of being a dirty liar, when really it is Mitt Romney who is secretive about his taxes and offshore accounts. Keep it going, Harry!!!!!!!!
Accusations from Sunday Talk Shows: Dirty Liar Harry Reid
They’re a bunch of cowards and they’re avoiding the issue. . . . Lindsey Graham, Reince Priebus - they’re a bunch of henchmen for Romney and they’re all reading off the same talking points. They couldn’t hold a candle to Harry Reid. . . . What Harry Reid said is the fact of what he was told. To turn it around, all their childish rants this weekend about calling Reid a ‘liar’ and all that, it just shows you how scared they are that Harry Reid was telling the truth.~ Reid's Chief of Staff, David Krone, via Politico
Republicans can try to cover up for Mitt Romney’s stonewalling all they want, but this issue is not going away until Romney decides to be straight with the American people and release his tax returns. It is sad that the most secretive candidate since Richard Nixon has forced his party to defend his decision to hide the truth about his tax returns. As Senator Reid has said, an extremely credible source informed him that Mitt Romney did not pay taxes for ten years. From the one year of returns Romney has released, we’ve seen that he uses secret offshore accounts in places like Switzerland and the Cayman Islands to avoid paying U.S. taxes. It’s clear Mitt Romney is hiding something, and the only way for him to clear this up is to be straight with the American people and release his tax returns.

Harry Reid IS Obama's war time Consigliere! The Godfather terminology & logic & plots always apply to campaigns & politics — Audra Johnson (@AJMadison8970) August 4, 2012
Hey
@reince: If Reid is lying, why won't Romney prove him a liar? Why is Mitt protecting Reid by hiding his tax returns? — Paul Begala (@PaulBegala) August 5, 2012
Harry Reid could not be more on in comparing Mitt Romney to Richard Nixon. Both secretive and both Tax Fiddlers. — John Dean (@JohnWDean) August 6, 2012
Mitt Romney: "The proof Harry Reid's outrageous accusations are not true is right here in the tax returns that I refuse to show anybody" — The Daily Edge (@TheDailyEdge) August 6, 2012
Let's be fair. Harry Reid is heinously accusing Mitt Romney of not paying any taxes. The birthers only accuse the President of treason. — LOLGOP (@LOLGOP) August 5, 2012
Funny how people who haven't seen Romney's tax returns are calling Harry Reid a liar, but John McCain, who has, isn't.

Harry Reid is considered one of the most honorable person in politics. Mitt Romney is a known pathological liar. So, I believe Reid. — Chico Delainky (@ChicoDelainky) August 5, 2012
You
@reince condemn Reid for demanding Romney release tax returns.But Obama releases certificate + you still don't condemn birthers? — David Shuster (@DavidShuster) August 5, 2012
Huff Post ~ Nancy Pelosi Backs ReidRomney applauds Mars landing as first step toward off-PLANET tax shelters — Craig Crawford (@craig_crawford) August 6, 2012
"Harry Reid made a statement that is true. Somebody told him. It is a fact," Pelosi told The Huffington Post in a Sunday interview. "Whether he did or not can easily be disposed of: Mitt Romney can release his tax returns and show whether he paid taxes." Asked to respond to Priebus calling Reid "a dirty liar" over the situation, Pelosi initially responded, "Who?" She went on to say that Priebus doesn't know what he's talking about since he wasn't part of Reid's conversations. "Well he doesn't know that," Pelosi said. "Harry Reid is a person who is, as we know, A, is a fighter, B, he wouldn't say this unless it was true that somebody told him that."There are a dozen different ways that Republicans could address Reid’s accusations, and they have chosen the worst option. The liar, liar pants on fire strategy is only effective if it can be proven that Reid is lying. Since Romney won’t provide the proof, Republicans have given the Democrats the gift of an endless loop of conversation about Romney’s tax returns. ~ Politicus USA
Attacking Harry Reid doesn't earn Romney a single vote. Still talking about Mitt Romney's tax returns, on the other hand...

Every morning Harry Reid eats two Bald Eagle eggs. He then kicks his dog. At least that's what I'm told.

Incidentally, how exactly does Reince Priebus know that Harry Reid is lying? Seems like an obvious question journalists'd ask.

i can understand the GOP's anger. Harry Reid has no right to ask to see King Mitten's finances. YOU PEOPLE need to know your place.

Awww, it was so nice of Candy Crowley to spend her Sunday morning begging Robert Gibbs to tell Harry Reid to stop being mean to Mitt Romney.
