First he maliciously calls Romney a tax dodger ... and when that is proven unmitigatingly false ... he now says that Romney "sullies" Mormanism.
This from the man who cannot, or will not, get a budget passed in the Senate for three consecutive years; and who has benefited greatly financially from peddling his political influence.
Since he's announced his retirement after the end of his present term, he has plenty of "flexibility" to be as much of a misery as he wants to be.

In recent weeks, Senator Reid has violated at least one of the Ten Commandments -- the one prohibiting the bearing of false witness -- as well as the command of Jesus to "Judge not, lest you be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged." (see Matthew 7:2-5). That doesn't mean Reid can't disagree with Romney's political positions, which is an entirely different matter and well within his theological and political rights, but to suggest that Romney's faith isn't as good as his own -- the apparent intent of his remark -- is to violate the command of the One Reid claims to follow.
In the matter of "bearing false witness," Reid claimed that a "source," who he refused to name, told him that Romney had not paid any federal income taxes in a decade. Reid indicated he believed him and challenged Romney to release his tax returns. When Romney finally did, proving he has, indeed, paid millions of dollars in taxes, did Reid apologize and ask Romney to forgive him? He did not. Instead, Reid moved on to another accusation that Romney had "fudged" his charitable donations in order to live up to the percentage of his income he claimed to have given away in recent years.
I'll leave it to the Mormon hierarchy and their flock to judge among themselves and not in public discourse who is the better face of Mormonism.
