No, nothing!
Obama Waging Dirty Campaign
Bernard Goldberg : August 10, 2012
If you’ve been paying attention to Barack Obama’s campaign for re-election you may have noticed a recurring theme. While he hits the campaign trail, flashing his million-dollar smile and waving to the adoring crowds, his political hit men are engaged in one of the dirtiest campaigns in recent American history – a campaign where decency is no virtue and moral atrocities are no vice. Not if they help Barack Obama win re-election.
First it was Harry Reid’s indecent act on the floor of the United States Senate about Mitt Romney not paying taxes in 10 years – an allegation made without so much as a scintilla of evidence to back it up.
It’s one thing if a drunk in a bar makes some crazy, unsubstantiated accusation. But this was the leader of the U.S. Senate telling the American people “The word’s out he (Mitt Romney) hasn’t paid any taxes in 10 years. Let him prove he has paid taxes. Because he hasn’t.”
When asked how he knows this, Reid said he got the tip from a confidential source who had worked at Bain Capital. When asked who it was, Reid wouldn’t say. And if a reporter asked Reid, how a confidential source – assuming one even existed — could possibly know anything about Mitt Romney’s personal income tax returns, I missed it.
Decent people protested Reid’s low blow. But the President of the United States wasn’t among the decent people.
