Mitt Romney To Harry Reid On Tax Dodge: 'Put Up Or Shut Up'

[sofa king]

28. Hey! stop making fun of him!

This was a very carefully chosen distraction on Romney's part. He took a lot of care to craft this untruth as thoroughly as he could, and we should consider it to be Romney's lie of record until the facts require that he tell a new lie.

Other responses the Romney people considered before settling on this most effective deception:

"I'm not in a position to either confirm or deny such allegations."

"I think the President may be black, but I don't see anyone asking about that."

"Name one thing the British, the Israelis, and the Poles can agree on. I can't think of any."

"Let's talk about my wife's horse instead."

"No, YOU'RE the tax dodger!"

"At least I'm not a Mormon."

"Fuck you!"
