Or better yet, what if the Birthers were treated the way Harry Reid has been?
I'm just asking a question here because I see a ton of outrage from the Media in response to what Harry Reid has said about what he heard about Mitt Romney's Taxes - but I haven't heard anywhere near this kind of response to people like Donald Trump who said for weeks and months - that he had a guy in Hawaii who said he heard or saw something or the other blather blather Birth Certificate - Born in Kenya. blah blah, blah...
Put up or SHUT UP Donald!
Trump has even demanded that Obama release his College Transcripts before Romney releases his Taxes.
Where's your Evidence Don?
Or Sherriff Arpaio who wants a Congressional Investigation into his own made up Hawaii Birth Certificate Tracking Number "Scandal".
Isn't it Outrageous that he could make such a claim without any evidence at all? Isn't it?
Why don't all these guys get told to PUT UP OR SHUT UP?.
But that's what we heard on ABC's This Week where we have News People - supposedly neutral NEWS PEOPLE - saying what Harry Reid has done Is the most outrageous thing to ever happen on the Floor of the Senatetm - and that he's done it "With Absolutely No Evidence". Watch starting at 4:20
It's one of the most outrageous charges I've seen made on the Senate - When Harry Reid comes to the floor of the Senate and makes this outrageous charge that has absolutely no evidence - Mitt Romney paid $3 Million to the IRS in the one tax return we've seen, he paid his taxes. Romney should have just laughed it off with a joke about Harry Reid and his imaginary friend.
Ha ha ha.. ho ho ho. "Imaginary Friend" yeah, that's a good one. Isn't that right Harvey?
Ok, So what Reid said is more outrageous than Senator Ankle-Pants in the Airport Bathroom with the Undercover Cop and all that Hand Jive - who now claims that at the time He Was On Official Senate Business?
It's More Outrageous than the Senator who was Banging his Best Friend/Chief of Staff's Wife, then had his parents pay them off, fired him, got him a lobbying job and illegally let him lobby - the same Senator?
Harry Reid repeating what someone at Bain Capital told him about Mitt Romney's Finances, not to mention everything else he said about Romney not being fit for Senate Confirmation - which is 100% True - is the "Most Outrageous" thing in the Senate?
Yeah, Just imagine if they'd been treating the Birthers like this all along?
George Will: Harry Reid's source - if we are to assume he actually has one (Dana Bash says he does) - is an investor in Bain (general laughter), that's like saying as an investor in Microsoft I have access to Bill Gate's tax returns.
And after that of course comes the Joe McCarthy comparisons. Yeah, right - the House Unamerican Activities Commitee Hearings where people were bullied into ratting out the names of their friends, family loved-ones and coworkers as communists and traitors is equivalent to Harry Reid's Hearsay Gossip on Mitt Romney's taxes?
Harry has restarted The Blacklisting of Americans? He's like the one man who put the entire nation into a death spiral of backstabbing paranoia?
Really?
Why is it none of them reacts to crap like this with such disdain?
I don't hear anyone saying how Outrageous it is for Steve King to claim that Obama's Birth Announcement, which was in multiple local papers, could have been sent via Telegram from Kenya.
It's just so Outrageous!
And where's the media outcry over this Congressional Candidate who just tweeted this.
Beware of people who rose meteorically from nowhere like Obama. His agenda has been carefully planned 4 him!!!” Marisha Agana wrote Sunday on Twitter. “History has a way of repeating itself: Stalin , Hitler, Mao Tse Tung and now Obama!!!”
Obama is Stalin? STALIN!? Death Camps and Mass Murder - STALIN?
Anyone who is pro-choice is Mao? Why don't you bring up the Khmer Rogue and the Killing Fields of Cambodia? How about the Ethnic Cleansing of Bosnia!? Child Soldiers roaming through Somalia and the Sudan dismembering people with machetes. Yeah, Obama providing contraceptive coverage is just like that. Exactly. To a "T".
And she hasn't backed down, she claims she said this because of Obama's Pro-Choice stance and his support for "abortifacient" drugs - when according to the Official Journal of the Catholic Health Association there is NO SUCH THING as a Contraceptive that is an "abortifacient drug".
A Contraceptive Prevents Pregnancy, and if there is no pregnancy, there can be no Abortion.
And let's no even start to get into Michele Bachman's crazed, unfounded, deluded, paranoid, islmaphoic - and actually McCarthyesque - attacks on Huma Abedin.
It's outrageous that she could say such a thing - with absolutely no evidence - isn't it?
I don't hear anyone calling any of these people "Dirty Liars" - do you?
And you know why? Nobody is the Serious Media Business is genuinely afraid that any of those people could be Right about Obama - but in Reid's case he damn well could be right about Romney.
Which scares them. It scares them a lot.
