A Little Internet Rumor About Harry Reid
« on: August 04, 2012, 06:50:21 PM »
I thought this was hilarious. I don't know exactly where it originated, but somebody started some website or blog or something stating that "several reliable sources that I can't name" have told him that Harry Reid is a pedophile. Googling the term now shows over 2 million hits. I'm thinking old Harry might now be regretting the little rumor that he started.

I was thinking I'd heard he used to spend a lot of time with Sandusky....

Somebody* called a popular radio show yesterday, and said he had heard that Harry Reid was a pedophile rapist - he rapes pedophiles. I thought that was even funnier.


*Or it may have been someone in the studio pretending to be a caller. Funny, either way.

Well, sure!  And James Earl Ray was hired by MLKJr. so he might die a martyr rather than in ignominy from an STD acquired from a partner not his wife ( ?,  ?.)  The real conspiracy in the assassination concealed the autopsy results.

If you haven't heard a good rumor by lunchtime, start your own!
Gee, I'd love to see your data!

Are you sure the "rapist" part wasn't just a clarification of pedophile -- he rapes little boys instead of just leering at them or collecting kiddie porno like a lesser pedophile.

Ladybird Johnson shot JFK.  Well, she hired someone to do it (George Bush.  Lee Harvey Oswald was just a patsy)  You might expect that of Lyndon B, but she was the Strippenzieher.

No, it was specifically explained the way I put it. The pedophilia rumors about Reid are being spread to make a point about Reid's own rumor-mongering.

I understand that.  I didn't hear the show, and without the additional information my theory is more plausible.  But if there was an explanation, then I'm probably mistaken.  (or I'm right, and the caller was just spreading misinformation) ;)  Carry on.

Yeah, presumably Reid has a penis, which means he does have all the "necessary equipment" to rape children, or pedophiles... or both.

From an email that I received:  =D

Quote
It just all depends on how you look at some things..
 
 
Judy Wallman, a professional genealogy researcher in southern California, was doing some personal work on her own family tree.. She discovered that Senator Harry Reid's great-great uncle, Remus Reid, was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in Montana in 1889. Both Judy and Harry Reid share this common ancestor.


 
 
The only known photograph of Remus shows him standing on the gallows in Montana territory: 
<image.jpg> 
On the back of the picture Judy obtained during her research is this inscription: 'Remus Reid, horse thief, sent to Montana Territorial Prison 1885, escaped 1887, robbed the Montana Flyer six times. Caught by Pinkerton detectives, convicted and hanged in 1889.' 
 
 
 
So Judy recently e-mailed Senator Harry Reid for information about their great-great uncle. 
 
 
 
Harry Reid: 
<image.jpg> 
Believe it or not, Harry Reid's staff sent back the following biographical sketch for her genealogy research: 
 
 
 
"Remus Reid was a famous cowboy in the Montana Territory. His business empire grew to include acquisition of valuable equestrian assets and intimate dealings with the Montana railroad. Beginning in 1883, he devoted several years of his life to government service, finally taking leave to resume his dealings with the railroad. In 1887, he was a key player in a vital investigation run by the renowned Pinkerton Detective Agency. In 1889, Remus passed away during an important civic function held in his honor when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed." 
 
 
 
 
 
NOW THAT's how it's done, Folks! 
 
 
 
 
 
That's real POLITICAL SPIN

A more appropriate word for Reid rhymes with 'lackluster', and involves a chrome trailer hitch.

All he has to do is provide evidence over the last 10 years that he is NOT a Pedophile.  It should be easy for him to prove he is not.  He just needs to release the evidence.   =D

In regard to Harry Reid's alleged wrongdoing, remember, it's not the quality of the evidence that's important, it's the seriousness of the charges. (Haven't we heard something along those lines from the Dems before?)

Speaking of which, I heard from one of the talking heads on TV that unnamed sources were saying that Harry Reid became a millionaire while in Congress thanks to gambling and prostitution . . . someone should look into that and Harry needs to prove it's not true.

So, based on what I'm reading here, Harry Reid is a pedophile who raped James  Earl Ray, who got an STD from Lady Bird Johnson while she was a stripper, and plotted with Uncle Remus to kill MLK because he discovered that Reid made millions as a prostitute......

.....am I getting this right so far?
Impressed yet befogged, they grasped at his vivid leading phrases, seeing only their surface meaning, and missing the deeper current of his thought.

It's a shock to learn that prostitutes and gamblers are associating with low life scum like congressmen  :P

I suspect Hairy Reid had some help in accumulating his million(s).  I think he needs to explain how that was accomplished.  Now we know what model Obama used to make his statements that nobody can be successful without help.

Hairy is doing this when he is not up for re-election.  If only the people could remember the stunts their Senator has been involved in?   I suspect Reid will be retiring after this current term is served since he had a serious challenge to his re-election the last time.

Reid has a little voice telling him these things about Romney but he can't own up to the source because it came from within.
It shall be as it was in the past... Not with dreams, but with strength and with courage... Shall a nation be molded to last. (The Plainsman, 1936)

I'm quite certain there is something in Romney's tax returns that is embarassing, at least to the mind of the Democrats. I'm betting it's that he didn't have any income for some years and only paid the capital gains tax.

I'm also quite certain that many Democrats have already seen Romney's tax returns, gained illegally from the IRS. They are screaming about Romney releasing them because they don't want to admit they already have them illegally. This is EXACTLY Obama's (more specifically, his campaigns') method of operation. Get your hands on legally sealed and private information and "leak" it to the press.

Whether Romeny releases his taxes or not, the Democrats will release them. They just want to do it without being so blatantly criminal.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought
