In reply to the discussion: Was This Smackdown A Little Too Early? [View all]Ruby the Liberal
(26,219 posts)1. On one hand, if OFA knew and pulled the trigger, they may have MUCH more in the wings, because this is very early with plenty of time for damage control.
2. If OFA knew but didn't pull the trigger, the machine knew what was coming and reacted to the MSM in lightening speed.
3. No way OFA didn't know (see 1 and 2 - preparation/execution was flawless and timely) so either they were on top of this timing, or eminently prepared for it.
4. Either way - you don't ask a question you don't know the answer to, and with Cutter dropping the "F-bomb" (felony) and Reid suggesting that Willard wouldn't pass confirmation for dog catcher due to taxes "not due" because of loopholes,
5. McCain's team of people reviewed 23 years of returns (at 200+ pages each). You can't keep that many people quiet. Especially not those who are looking to make a vetting career and don't care which side of the aisle it is on. How many people did it take to review JUST taxes while others focused on the other vet topics?
6. I trust that they have this one. And yeah - this has been a really great week.
Love to see the Dems on the offensive for a change, and Harry Reid? Your new spine looks mahvelous, dahling.
