Pelosi helps Reid double-down on Romney taxes smear; PolitiFact says "pants on fire"

[JB]

"Harry Reid made a statement that is true. Somebody told him. It is a fact," Pelosi told The Huffington Post in a Sunday interview. "Whether he did or not can easily be disposed of: Mitt Romney can release his tax returns and show whether he paid taxes."

First of all, what planet am I living on? "Somebody told him so it's a fact?". Did she say that with a straight face?

Secondly, if it's a fact, why does Romney need to release his tax returns? If it's a fact that he didn't pay any taxes why does he need to release his tax returns to show that he didn't pay any taxes? Sounds to me like it's a done deal.

Romney didn't pay taxes for 10 years. Fact. Now, let's moveon.

If he some how legally avoided paying taxes he is a financial genius and will have our economy fixed in no time.
Also if he could outsmart the IRS, the most vicious organization ever encountered, dealing with our foreign enemies ought to be child's play by comparison.
