That was the tease from a blogger Drew M. at Ace of Spades HQ last night. As Twitchy has reported, Senator Reid (D-Nev.) is embroiled in a scandal involving serious accusations and has been remaining conspicuously silent. True or not, it’s impossible to know for sure, right Senator Reid? Senator Reid levied scurrilous accusations against Mitt Romney, claiming some guy told him that Romney didn’t pay his taxes, and he then doubled-down on them. The media ran with the absurd rumors and reported them as if fact. Surely these accusations merit as much investigation from the media? Maybe more, as it is For The Children ™.

Twitter users decided to give Senator Reid a taste of his own slimy medicine and, thus, the Harry Reid is a pederast meme was born.

If Harry Reid isn't a pederast, why is everyone saying he is? People don't just make up vicious smears for political advantage. — iLoveScienceSexually (@AceofSpadesHQ) August 3, 2012

Force them to play by their own rules, baby!

And, boy, was it a success.

The power of Twitter in all its glory.

Today, “just a blogger” has the scoop on incredible new developments in the Reid Pederast Scandal.

Apparently, @SenatorReid's office thinks allegations, from various unnamed sources, that Reid is a pederast is "cute." http://t.co/iV2sW3BZ — RB (@RBPundit) August 3, 2012

More from Ace of Spades HQ’s exclusive:

With that understanding, I requested comment from Harry Reid’s office on the swirling charges that someone said they heard from someone that Harry Reid is pederast. The email response from Reid Spokesman Adam Jentleson can only be characterized as chilling:

Cute

First, note the non-denial. Based on the rumors we’ve all heard, we can only conclude that at best questions of Reid’s abuse remains an open question.

Wow. Cute.

Harry Reid's Office Responds 2 Rumors That He's A Pederast @AceofSpadesHQ http://t.co/qAR45I5T I don't see what's so cute about Pederastery. — Karen (@Brazyn) August 3, 2012

Multiple “unnamed sources” have levied accusations against Senator Reid. This response by Reid’s camp does nothing but demand further questioning. When will the media investigate these accusations and the Senator’s chilling response?

The intrepid Drew M. explains why he is investigating this on his own. For America.

FTR- I really did email Reid's spokesman a serious question about the rumors swirling around Reid and pederasty. That's his actual response. — DrewMTips (@DrewMTips) August 3, 2012

If Reid's ramblings are enough to start reporters going on Mitt, there's no reason his office shouldn't be asked about similar allegations. — DrewMTips (@DrewMTips) August 3, 2012

If any reporters want to have a debate about the difference between what they and their colleagues are doing and what I did, I'm happy to. — DrewMTips (@DrewMTips) August 3, 2012

I think the "rules" of this game are stupid but we damn well are all going to play by the same ones. — DrewMTips (@DrewMTips) August 3, 2012

Bingo. Kudos, sir. Pederast-gate is at Day 4 now. And only “just bloggers” are investigating. The story is still developing.

Unless he can clear up the rumor that he is a pederast, I think it is fairly clear that Harry Reid should resign immediately. — AG (@AG_Conservative) August 3, 2012

A source notes that if each consonant and vowel in "CUTE" is shifted to the previous one, it spells "BOSA." Was "Bosa" Victim Zero? — iLoveScienceSexually (@AceofSpadesHQ) August 3, 2012

Your move, lapdogs.

In the meantime, there is something else to celebrate.
