Did He?’
by Andrew Desiderio | 1:07 pm, March 31st, 2015
Sen. Harry Reid (R-NV), who announced last week that he will retire after
his current term expires in early 2017, said he does not regret taking to
the Senate floor in 2012 to accuse then-GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney
of not paying his taxes.
“No, I don’t regret that at all,” he told CNN’s Dana Bash. “The Koch
brothers — no one would help me. They were afraid the Koch brothers would
go after them, so I did it on my own.”
Bash said some viewed the charge as “McCarthy-ite,” but Reid didn’t buy
that explanation. He shrugged, saying, “they can call it whatever they want
.”
“Romney didn’t win, did he?” Reid said somewhat amusingly. | d**********0

'This Is Wrong!' Megyn Takes on Richard Fowler Over Reid's Romney Tax Claim
Megyn Kelly tonight clashed with radio host Richard Fowler over Harry Reid’
s 2012 claim that Mitt Romney hadn’t paid his taxes in 12 years.
CNN’s Dana Bash asked the former Senate majority leader if he regretted his
Romney remark, adding that “people have even called it McCarthyite.”
“Well, they can call it whatever they want,” Reid said. “Romney didn’t
win, did he?”
Fowler told Kelly that the Senate majority leader’s job is to vehemently
defend his party.

“By lying?” Kelly questioned, remarking that Reid is “proud he told a lie
.”
“Richard, this is wrong, this is wrong, and you know it’s wrong, don’t
you?” she asked.
“I just think it's politics at its finest,” Fowler said, arguing that it’
s the job of politicians to evade the truth.

Fowler said that Reid isn’t the only politician who has fabricated things,
but Kelly said that doesn’t excuse it. |
