Please tell me how you KNOW they did NOT spend $40,000 a year on their two children’s tuition. Facts please.
I am accepting the claim from Reid’s aide that they were not, based on the fact that, with all the attention that’s being focused on this, he’s very unlikely to have made that claim without having made sure there’s evidence to back up its veracity. The political backfiring that would result from the claim later being proven to be materially untrue would be huge, and Reid and Co. know that. I also think the school would have piped up by now, if that statement had been materially untrue. This has got to be very uncomfortable for the school, which is undoubtedly fielding calls from a good number of the parents of the 75% of the student body that are paying full freight. I know that Reid’s staff would have had access to information needed to verify the staement before it was made public, while I know that icwhatudo did not have any such inside access. Even if some of the info Reid’s office relied on is inaccurate or incomplete, I’m confident that the family did not actually fork over anything close to $40,000 in cash to the school each year that the children attended prior to the accident.
