Reid Dismisses Romney Tax Claim
We'll believe it when we see it, says spokesman in response to Romney's assertion Thursday that he's paid at least 13% of his income in taxes every year for the last decade.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reids office isnt backing down from its charges Mitt Romney may have not paid taxes over the years and demanding he release a decades worth or returns despite Romneys assertion Thursday that hes paid at least 13 percent in taxes over the last decade.
"We'll believe it when we see it. Until Mitt Romney releases his tax returns, Americans will continue to wonder what he's hiding. Romney seems to think he plays by a different set of rules than every other presidential candidate for the last thirty years, all of whom lived up to the standard of transparency set by Mitt Romney's father and released their tax returns," Reid spokesman Adam Jentleson told Buzzfeed in a statement Thursday.

I have come to the conclusion he is hiding something. I don't care that he is rich.

Mitt, is that adjusted back payments after you took the tax amnesty for those Swiss accounts?

It's hard for me to believe Reid does not know what's being hidden by RMoney from the public...

You're right they're neck talking. He can't forge returns and the IRS is bound by confidentiality.

Whenever Romney says, "just trust me", I think of his "Corporations are people, my friend" comment.
