Harry Reid took to the Senate floor today to do a little race baiting and, lamenting the flood of ‘outside money’ in politics after the Citizens United SCOTUS decision, said that if this flood of outside money continues that 17 angry old white men will wake up the day after the election and realize they’ve just bought the country. Of course he accused the GOP of trying to protect these 17 angry old white men because of their opposition to the DISCLOSE Act.

He then went on to berate Mitt Romney for not releasing his taxes and said “his penchant for secrecy make Americans wonder what’s he hiding?”

When he said "his penchant for secrecy makes everyone wonder 'what's he hiding?'" I thought he was talking about Obama. He confused me there for a second.

Hey Harry, why is it you keep blocking bills purposed by Republicans? Is it because you are an angry old white man!

I didn't want to listen to that POS. How anyone can listen to these scumbags and take them seriously is beyond me. They make the mafia look like children with Legos.

I can actually see why Reid was re-elected. He had union leaders threaten employees if they didn't go out to vote for Reid. I can't remember what the threat was, but some things were going to be taken away, I think.

That old puke shouldn't be calling anyone an 'angry' OLD white man. Does he thinks he's Cinderella?

The reference to "white man" shows just how racist these jackasses are. They make everything about race even when there's no possible correlation to be drawn about race. Now it's the angry, racist white men that are against Obama.

How in the world does the Disclose Act have even an ounce of connection to ethnciity? It doesn't matter, the libs will invent it.

Exactly! What was the point of saying "old white men" thats racist, agist and gender discrimination dangit!! But in reality what does their race have to do with anything? Was Reid talking to the CBC? No one really watches CSPAN anyways so I don't know what he was doing except describing himself. Idiot.

I will be so glad to see him in the minority again. I wish Republicans would do to them what they did to the Republicans. Shut them out of the process entirely and keep asking them "how do you like being on the receiving end of your own practices?" Republicans have too much class for that, though. Dang it.

Pure projection dinghy Harry. George Soros, the union communists, and the international bankers have you in their pockets already, as well as Obama and Miss bananas too. What are YOU HIDING Harry? YOU haven't put forth a budget in 3 1/2years. You do not want voters to know what is being done with THEIR tax dollars. It is YOU who seems to be artfully HIDING something, Harry.

I resemble that remark but sure as heck didn't vote for Harry Reid. Many of us screamed to high heaven that it was blatantly obvious that Reid stole the election. The GOP didn't give a damn. You know why? They were scarred out of their wits by the Tea Party revolution of 2010 and grasped at Angles loss to show it was the fault of a Tea Party loony that Reid was re-elected. Blatant lie.

I have beat my head against the wall on statements like yours since 2010 to no avail. If you do some research you will see what I am talking about. Rather than take up anymore space, I will at least post this statistical analysis:

I remember reading that people were saying they pressed the button for Angle and it recorded it for Reid. He didn't win. He stole that election.

Coming from someone who held closed door meetings on Obamacare I think the Senator's words lack gravity.

The Senate has failed to advance legislation that would require independent groups to disclose the names of contributors who give more than $10,000 for use in political campaigns.

The measure, known as the DISCLOSE Act, died in a 51 to 44 vote on a procedural motion. It needed 60 votes to move forward.

Its failure was widely expected, but Democrats pushed for the vote, believing that Republicans will be politically damaged by their opposition to bringing new transparency to campaigns. The vote could also serve to energize the Democratic base, which has been exercised over the role they believe secret corporate donations are playing in the campaign.

To press the point, bill sponsor Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), will lead Senate Democrats in a “midnight vigil” Monday night, with floor speeches scheduled into the early morning. The goal is to hammer Republicans for blocking the bill and push for another vote on the measure Tuesday.

How on earth can he and other democratic hypocrites actually stand up and bloviate this crap without an ounce of shame?? I know that is it second nature, I know that they are snakes, I know this but I am always gobsmacked when they happily display it. It makes my blood boil!

You think at some point they'd get embarrassed spouting these blatant lies. Guess it helps knowing they have the lamestream media on their side.

Harry Reid and the Dems will be pounding Romney to disclose everything (while Obama discloses nothing). It is human nature to wonder what someone is "hiding" if they do not comply with even the most absurd demand (with the exception of Obama; the RINOs are content that he doesn't disclose squat).

With that said, I've been wondering why, if Romney signed SEC disclosure docs as Bain CEO up until 2002, what's the big deal about saying he was CEO until 2002? Why is he so insistent about 1999. What did Bain do from 2000-2002? He must have had something to do with Bain as someone at least contracted him to sign the disclosure docs. Surely that person updated Romney on what Bain was doing. Romney does leave the impression he is hiding something. What will his tax records show about that period? Look for the Dems to focus on those years.

Romney should disclose every year of his taxes that are required of all candidates or more for good measure. Delays make him look quilty. What's to hide, the GOPe said he's vetted and the only one to beat obama. Disclose everything and go to the convention with his head high or..........

So here we have the ultra left wing angry old white guy complaining about people who disagree with him. I guess it is alright if the old angry white men, George Soros, buys the election for the democrats.

Poor baby.

James, Dodd/Frank opened a loophole for George Soros to avoid hedge fund regs. Georgie converted his fund into what's called a "family office". Of his 24 billion hedge fund he returned a little over a billion to investors which magically qualified him for the new status. He does not have to disclose his investors to the SEC like the other hedge funds now have to. Ever wonder who his clients are? Corzine is probably among them, along with Obama getting a cut for all the good things he's done for the bottom line.

I'm not really surprised that part of Dodd/Frank would benefit Soros. I wonder who made money off that deal?

What exactly was the Senate business he was conducting at the expense of my taxes here? Was he introducing a bill to do anything? Aren't campaign speeches on the Senate floor a flagrant misuse of Congressional time and money? Somebody owes me a refund. I'll be waiting by the mailbox for the check.

17 old white men 'bought' the country with 9 figures ($1, $3, $4, $7, $9, $10, $13, $16, & $19 = $82). Hmmm, that's better than the $24 worth of beads it was originally sold for. And they say you can't make money in Real Estate. Ha.

If you added Pelosi's IQ with Reid's IQ and divided by two the average would still be single digits. Reid is the epitome of the angry white man and no more than a babbling fool. He is a perfect leader of the democratic Senate.
