Reid misquotes Romney to make immigration attack
By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times October 4, 2012, 02:14PM
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has become the chief attack dog against his co-religionist Mitt Romney, but on Wednesday that attack went even further when his official Senate office released a statement that attributed a quote to Mr. Romney, even though he said the exact opposite.
Mr. Reid's release quoted the Republican presidential nominee's staff as telling the Boston Globe that Mr. Romney would "not honor deportation exemptions" that President Obama has granted under his new non-deportation policy.
But that phrase doesn't appear in the Globe's article. In fact, the newspaper said Mr. Romney's staff specifically "said he would honor deportation exemptions issued by the Obama administration before his inauguration," though the staffers said a Romney administration wouldn't issue any new exemptions itself.
Mr. Reid's office didn't respond to multiple requests for clarification Wednesday night and Thursday morning, but the version of the release posted online deleted the quote marks around the inaccurate phrase — though it still contains the phrase itself.
The Nevada Democrat, who is a Mormon, has been harsh in his criticism of Mr. Romney, including telling reporters last week he agreed with a blogger who said Mr. Romney had "sullied the religion" that they share.
What a putz. It's almost comical--almost.

Nevadans -- you get what you pay for.
You had the chance to oust this particularly putrid pile of dingy shit two years ago and you failed.
Now the rest of us have to deal with his utter failures in passing a budget, his obstructionism, and especially his lies.

Were the Nevada voters to blame or was it the SEIU counting the votes?

Ultimately it comes down to the voters. Every time.

I can somewhat understand the folks in Nevada keeping Dingy Harry around as long as he is Majority Leader. That Position can essentially result in a lot of swag for the state of Nevada.
The embarrassment level has got to be reaching the breaking point though.

It's too bad Harry does not even live in Nevada. It took him months to notice the airport in Vegas had changed. :-)
He is such a scum bag.
Unemployment is the highest in the United States.
