Just like The Bruce Dickinson needs more cowbell, I need more Reince Priebus. It’s about time a big name Republican put some skin in the game and Harry Reid in his place:

Republican National Committee chair Reince Priebus called Sen. Harry Reid a “dirty liar” this morning on “This Week” for accusing presumptive GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney of not paying taxes for ten years.

“As far as Harry Reid is concerned, listen, I know you might want to go down that road. I’m not going to respond to a dirty liar who hasn’t filed a single page of tax returns himself. (He) complains about people with money but lives in the Ritz Carlton here down the street,” Priebus said. “So if that’s on the agenda, I’m not going to go there.  This is just a made-up issue.  And the fact that we’re going to spend any time talking about it is ridiculous.”

    This plays into Reid’s game. He does not care if he is called a dirty liar, who is talking about the 8.3% unemployment rate? All the focus is on Reid and Romney’s taxes. Bad move. Just say Mitt Romney has released all the information required by law and move on to the economy. slamming Reid only keeps this going for another week, why should Reid not go back to the senate floor and slam Romney. If you are reacting you are losing. Come on the GOP convention is just 3 weeks away.

    Reid is Right as Rain …and Willard is all Wet.
    ‘Cause Americans have a RIGHT to see the tax returns
    of anyone who wants to be their President!
    NO if’s, …No and’s, ….and NO big fat butt’s about it!
    Confession is good for the soul Mitt….. assuming you have one.
    So Relax, Repent, and Release your Returns, Mr. Romney …OR…
    just go back to playing with your pet dancing ponies.
    No problem. We’ll understand. Unless …perhaps ….just perhaps
    …you’re HIDING something, dear Willard? Just asking.
    P.S. By the way, Mr. Mitt: just how DID you manage to stuff all those millions into your
    tax-loophole IRA account?… while the REST of us poor smucks have strict limits?
    Inquiring minds want to know.
    And you want even MORE tax cuts for you and your rich buddies, Mitt? 
    WHAT GALL! These fat cats aren’t satisfied – they want it ALL …EVERYTHING!!
    But tell me Mitt, just how MANY cars and houses can you hog?
    And just how MANY silver spoons can you stuff into your smirking mouth?
    Mitt baby, you can fool some of the people some of the time,
     but -please-  take my advice: if you want to run for dog-catcher
    KEEP your  precious tax returns, and just clean off your car roof. 
    OTHERWISE, if you wanna be our President, THEN PUT UP,
    …or shut up and go away ….preferably BEFORE the convention.
    The super-rich think that they have the God-given right to do anything
    they want in this great country -while the REST of us get screwed!
    ENOUGH!!! The divine right of kings ended a long long time ago Mitt.
    And so should your sorry excuse for a candidacy.
    Nothing personal, guy. Really.
    Rich, arrogant, power-hungry Republicans are people too!
    It’s just their “culture” I guess. As you are so fond of saying.
