Alleged Child Molester Harry Reid Manages to Turn Romney’s Tax Returns Into a Good Story for Romney

Talk about stepping into it.

This is, not to put too fine a point on it, un-American.

You see, in this country, the burden of proof is on the accuser. That is the standard in criminal cases, and it informs our sense of propriety in the court of public opinion.

This is why neither 9/11 “truthers” nor Obama “birthers” have gotten any traction with the broader public: Their respective “cases” — to use another word loosely — rely on accusations they can’t prove and an implication the accused should prove they’ve done nothing wrong. That’s not how it works in this country.

For good measure, Reid also suggested Romney’s own deceased father would be disappointed in his son. I’m glad to know Reid’s tastelessness knows no bounds.

The good news is that the senator’s claim is likely to shift the focus from Romney to those jumping the shark while badgering him to release his past tax returns. After all, when you’ve lost Jon Stewart …

    Y’know, prostitution is legal in parts of the state that Reid represents. He’s either been with a prostitute or worked as one. I demand answers from the soon-to-be Senate Minority Leader.

    Why is alleged goat-buggerer jammie making unfounded accusations again?

    Serously, way to trivialize serious sexual abuse for political gain. Makes you look like an asshole. Somebody questioning why a presidential candidate hasn’t released even ONE full year’s tax records? Not so much.

    Thanks Dave for your insight. When Barry releases any documents that his lawyers pay millions to keep hidden. Talk about being an asshole. Hairy Reid is a known pederast.

    Speaking of assholes, where are Barry’s grades, transcripts, law reviews, real estate transactions, and the name of his dealers?
