The White House on Monday distanced President Obama from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s comments that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney hasn’t paid taxes in a decade.
White House press secretary Jay Carney said on Monday that Reid (D-Nev.) “speaks for himself” and had spoken on the issue without any guidance from Team Obama. …
In an interview last week, Reid claimed a Bain Capital investor told him Romney had not paid any taxes in 10 years. That’s why, Reid said, Romney has refused to release more than the roughly two years' worth of tax returns he's already shared.
Romney and other Republicans have ripped Reid over the remarks, noting that he has no evidence to back up his claims. Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus called Reid a “dirty liar” for the remarks. …

There are several articles out there that say he was given the go-ahead by the White House and Obama for America.
Reid and Obama:
You jacka$$e$ have not passed/executed a budget in over 1,000 days. Instead of worrying about Romney and whether he paid “any” taxes over the past 10 years pass and execute a budget. Obama is on his 100th+ golf outing. Obama is busy with his 100th+ fund raising party with the greedy 1%. Obama has not met with his Job Cabinet in over 6 months. Pass a budget or stop playing golf and fund raising and lying, you dirty lying bastards.
Asside: You effed up the wording. “Any” implies Romney paid no taxes. An impossibility! The IRS would be putting handcuffs on him as I type. You jackasses can not even get your lies right.
Time to stop at Sam’s Club on the way home for the super industrial size popcorn. LOLOLOLOL!
Maybe some of that African cannibalism is about to go on display!
Under the bus you must go.
I heard from a reliable source that Obama got F Minus in all his courses at Columbia and Harvard. That’s why he refuses to release his grades.
He set a record as the first President of the Harvard Law Review with an F Minus grade average.
Mr. Reid has traitorously declared defeat in Operation Iraqi Freedom, thereby demoralizing our troops and providing moral support and encouragement to the enemies of America:
RESOLVED: That the Senator from Nevada, Harry Reid, failed to maintain proper public ethical standards by impugning the ethics of a sitting Vice President of the United States. His behavior on November 8, 2005 and following betrays the necessary good conduct as a Senator and has affected the honor of the Senate.
His abuse of Senate rules has prevented his fellow members from carrying out their assigned duties, thereby obstructing the constitutional processes of the Senate, and that this conduct of the Senator from Nevada, Mr. Reid, is contrary to senatorial traditions and is hereby condemned. REID: This war is lost, and that the surge is not accomplishing anything, as indicated by the extreme violence in Iraq yesterday.
RUSH: And yesterday, last night, actually, on the Senate floor, he added to it.
REID: As long as we follow the president's path in Iraq, the war is lost. But there is still a chance to change course, and we must change course.
Yea sure.
This is the message that we are suppose to believe from an administration headed by a pathological liar.
Then why is Stinky so worried about the tax returns? Stinky isn’t running for president and Romney is not his enemy (opponent). I think “the White House” is lying again.
Reid’s as full of shiate as a Xmas goose.
How would a Bane investor know what Romney put on his income tax records?
How this halfwit got reelected is beyond me.
And don’t forget his Oct 2, 2008 statement where he claimed that a major insurance company was about to go bankrupt. Then later denied that there was a problem. That jack@$$ deliberately screwed with the markets right before the 2008 elections. FUHR
Senator Reid lies for himself. Nobody told him that Romney went 10 years without paying any taxes. He made it up.
-OR-
White House: Sen. Reid's comments fell flat and could even cause a backlash, and in a war of disclosure demands, we lose big time.
LOL!
Obummer our Nations First... Affirmative Action President!
How’s the view from under the bus Harry?
Translation: Reid served his roll as a useful idiot for Obama, and now it’s time to join all the other typical white folk under the bus.
Another carefully worded sentence. It denies everything by saying nothing. "Without any guidance from Team Obama" is the perfect cop-out. It doesn't say that he didn't approve or suggest it just merely imply s that he didn't put the exact words into Reid's flapping mouth. Obama's and Axelrod's history suggest otherwise.
Who exactly is on “Team Obama” ?
The team may be made up only of Barry’s dog Bo, if he hasn’t eaten him.
Therefore, every other hack Dem “political advisor” may have given Harry “guidance”.
Keeping all of these lies straight is impossible.
And what does the White House have to say about Reid’s pedophilia?
