Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid charged Mitt Romney with manipulating his 2011 taxes to conform with his public statements, after the Republican presidential challenger's return showed he paid nearly $500,000 more than he should have.
"Governor Romney is showing us what he does when the public is looking," Reid said. "The true test of his character would be to show what he did when everyone was not looking at his taxes."
Reid was referring to the Republican presidential candidate's decision not to take the full write-off on the huge amount he and his wife Ann gave to charity last year. The return, released Friday, show the couple donated some 30 percent of their $13.7 million incomebut they did not take the full write-off, making their effective tax rate higher.

Reid is just slimy. I’ll be glad to he his downfall.
Mr. Reid, part of gambling is knowing when to fold...
(but as far as I’m concerned, he can make an idiot of himself all he wants)
Confused Harry, did he not pay taxes, or did he pay too much, or too little. It’s hard to keep track day-to-day.
He should know since he was one of the ones who was “manipulated” the hardest.
If Romney was clever enough to manufacture all of the exploding cigars the Democrats and their Media allies have been smoking, then he is clever enough to be President .
Uhh Harry ... would you please explain that land deal with your son some years ago?
FUHR. Crook.
You can never win with these people, why try?
Mitt Romney: Walking the walk on the Buffet rule.
Harry, give it a rest, you shot your load and you were shooting blanks...
this just BLOWS MY MIND!!!!

Did Harry Reid ever settle his pedophile law suit? Was’nt he sued $500,000 for being a pedophile?
Good grief! Is that little yard gnome still alive?
Reid is an asshat. Apologies to the ass and the hat.
The fact of the matter is that Rommney produced tax reports ; no matter what was produced , it wouldn’t satisfy Reid.
Now its time for Reid to produce his discredited mystery source , or, put out his own tax report out to the public .
If people weren't so stupid this would be funny. He voluntarily pays MORE than he should and it's bad because he didn't take advantage of a legal tax credit that he could have used when he donated MILLIONS of dollars to charity??
