Mitt Romney's Harry Reid problem

Talk of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid 's allegation that Mitt Romney had not paid any taxes at all for 10 years dominated the Sunday talk show circuit as Republicans denounced the charge.

[Colorado Chick]

I bet Mitt would love to just say to Harry..meet ya in the ring in five and let's settle this..like men.

[Curtis Lowe]

Actually, Harry Reid is Obama's problem, not Mitt's. Reid's incredibly stupid and insensitive comments about Ann Romney and her "Horse Sex" can only hurt Obama and boost Romney in the polls.

[STEPHMAR]

In my opinion,no small businesses,large businesses,corporations;or,any of the rich pay any taxes.Don't be fooled when guys like Romney and others post tax returns showing they paid any taxes.Using loopholes in the tax system,they simply deduct these taxes paid, on future tax returns.The net result is that the wealthy pay absolutely NO taxes at all to this country,which made them wealthy.This is how the wealthy,keep their wealth;by letting suckers like me pay their way.Anyone who votes for Romney is an idiot;and,any woman who votes for him is brain-dead.P.S.Even a chimpanzee could figure this one out!

[TedsLiver]

Harry Reid is a problem period. How could anybody elect this loser.

[Clint Eastwood]

No question about it. Harry Reid is a Liar.
And more importantly, It's the Economy Stupid!
When are we going to see Obama admitting to his terrible record?

[Gravediggers]

To the Mitt Romney campaign:

do not let the democrats and Obama lead the political discussion away from their disasterous economic policies and programs.

LEAD!

Keep the discussion on the OBAMA ECONOMY and JOBS!

[sailorman2]

Mitt should just ignore Dirty Liar Reid. How many years of returns did he show in the last campaign? 13? Have they somehow changed? Do the grasping at straws liberals actually believe that the IRS hasn't put him under a microscope? They are looking for anything even the least bit shady to blow out of proportion and change the narrative from Obamas complete failure in everything. All Obama can do is vilify, lie and denigrate his opponent.

Looks like you're a liar.
Fact check: The wealthy already pay more taxes

By Stephen Ohlemacher,
The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – President Obama says he wants to make sure millionaires are taxed at higher rates than their secretaries. The data say they already are.

On average, the wealthiest people in America pay a lot more taxes than the middle class or the poor, according to private and government data. They pay at a higher rate, and as a group, they contribute a much larger share of the overall taxes collected by the federal government.

The 10% of households with the highest incomes pay more than half of all federal taxes. They pay more than 70% of federal income taxes, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

I think it's about time Obaam Balanced a Budget and Stopped spending over a Trillion Dollars more than he takes in.

[Clint Eastwood]

This year, households making more than $1 million will pay an average 29.1% of their income in federal taxes, including income taxes, payroll taxes and other taxes, according to the Tax Policy Center, a Washington think tank.
Households making between $50,000 and $75,000 will pay an average of 15% of their income in federal taxes.
Lower-income households will pay less. For example, households making between $40,000 and $50,000 will pay an average of 12.5% of their income in federal taxes. Households making between $20,000 and $30,000 will pay 5.7%.

President Obama Paid just 20% despite being in the 35% bracket.

Reid has the reputation for being some kind of a bad assed boxer. Watch him walk. His balance is so bad he almost falls over.

Come to think of it, his balance problems may be caused by his habitual drinking problems.

You can quote the AP all you want;however,we both know that I am not a liar.It is the wealthy who are the liars.You republicans will simply not be content until you collapse this economy completely with your Ronald Reagan,voodoo style economics,that didn't work either.

[Your Ex]

Romney knows
Being accused of
Felony tax evasion
Is less damaging to his campaign
Than releasing his returns.
Must be pretty bad......

Are liberals still called liberals in the parallel universe you inhabit?

[liza]

When "one" lie doesn't work, you can plan on the democrats thinking up another. Professionals at
that game. All one of them has to say and the
idiot dems., believe it. Is this an easy job
for Obama and gang, you will not question any
thing they say! Hitler had the same followers.
History keeps repeating itself, when idiots have
never learned...... suckers!

[Space Cowboy]

Mitt should do a press confrence in frontof the IRS Headquarters.

If he hasn't paid taxes in 10 years, he should challenge Harry Reid to come arrest him for his "supposed illegal" activity.

Harry Reid's a dirty lying scumbag.

Romney's rate last year was 15.4%, but that's on income he reported. He has millions off shore on which he pays no taxes.

Obama just over 20%
Biden at 24%

Off-shoring? Obama zero?

Harry Reid's a dirty lying scumbag.

“He should release the tax returns tomorrow. It’s crazy. You’ve got to release six, eight, ten years back tax returns. Take the hit for a day or two. He has to give a big speech in defense of capitalism, and that will elevate, I think, this race above this tactical back and forth, which I do think he’s on the margin of losing.”
~Bill Kristol, criticizing Romney’s refusal to release tax returns on Fox News, July 15, 2012

he is following Obama, Jarrett's and Axelrods orders. Harry drew the short straw. Since his rigged election was just completed, Harry has 4 more years and will retire after that.

HARRY REID HELPS CHINESE SOLAR FIRM REPRESENTED -- BY HIS SON! Let the payback for the rigged election where his son controlled the voting begin.

NEW RULES: Obama weighs executive-order on 'Internet security'...somebody call Odoodle and tell him there is a congress and he hasn’t been crowned king…………….yet.

Biden Takes Another Week Off...his hair plugs needed a rest.
