One hour to go: Senator Harry Reid (Democrat-Nevada) tried to horn in on the credit. What a guy! What a leader. What a grungy act. He implied that he and my syndication partner worked out the fundraiser. But he didn't even know his name. He kept calling him Mark "May." It's Mays! He claimed he talked to him, and they had conversations, and they said, "Ah, it's not going to raise a whole lot of money." Dingy Harry tried to horn in on this and get credit for it in the last hour -- and as I predicted on Friday, the Drive-By Media in most places went right along with it. The New York Times and Reuters went right along with it. When a Republican has egg on his face, it's a Republican issue. When a Democrat has egg on his face, they turn it into, "Both sides do it," and they try to turn this into a story, to you, me, and Senator Harry Reid, were both wrong. Listen to the way the New York Times started on Saturday. This is the babe who called me and wanted an interview, and I told you I wasn't going to do it because I looked into some of the other things she's written and she attacks private charity because that money doesn't go to the government. So here's her lede on Saturday. Stephanie Strom is her name. "After Rush Limbaugh referred to Iraq war veterans critical to the war as 'phony soldiers'..." So they start out with a lie! After 17 days of this, they still perpetuate the lie. "[H]e received a letter of complaint signed by 41 Democratic senators. He decided to auction the letter, which he described as 'this glittering jewel of colossal ignorance,' for charity, and he pledged to match the price, dollar for dollar." So they start out with a false premise, and they close with a former IRS agent in the Clinton administration claiming that there might not be tax deductibility for the donor here, which to me signaled that they might investigate the donor.
They know no bounds of depravity.
