Debra Saunders: Harry Reid's big mouth "Reid seemed to understand how fantastic his charge appeared. He told HuffPo, "Now, do I know that that's true? Well, I'm not certain. But obviously he can't release those tax returns. How would it look?" "
We ran this a few days ago, but here it is again: 'Call Obama's bluff!'
From The Washington Post, of all papers! Four Pinocchios for Harry Reid’s claim about Mitt Romney’s taxes "But Romney’s 2010 return and his estimated 2011 return do show that he paid substantial taxes in those years. In 2010, he earned nearly $22 million, including $3 million in taxable interest, nearly $5 million in dividends and more than $12 million in capital gains. He reduced his taxes by giving $3 million in charitable contributions (much of it in appreciated stock, which shielded him from paying additional capital gains.)"
Romney should call a press conference and issue a challenge in front of the nation. He should agree to release more of his tax returns, only if Obama unseals his college records

It's time to quit cheering on Reid and get off this particular bus."
Bachmann and Reid: A Troubling Double Standard "Bachmann’s claims were based upon the thinnest possible evidence, and she was quickly denounced -- particularly by members of her own party -- for making such unsourced and scurrilous, claims.
