Hot-Rod Harry is off his meds again

The first thing to go is your memory. The second is any remnant of dignity. Or maybe it's the other way round. Either way, does anyone remember this passionate display from Hot-Rod-Harry on the Senate floor back in late February? (Emphasis mine):

There’s plenty of horror stories being told. All are not true but they are being told all over America.

Good times, good times, no!

But wait what is this? On the same Senate Floor Hot-Rod said this not a month later:

[E]xamples that they think are bad -  I’ve called lies, Mr. President, is simply not true.

Really… I mean… I just… you can’t just… SAY WHAT? You cannot make this stuff up folks. He said it - then he unsaid it and now he’s denying he said it at all. Wow, just WOW. How big are his cojones when he can just simply tell an outright lie, on the Senate floor no less, with such a straight face and get away with it? We’ll in defense of his face I’m not sure he has the facial muscles necessary to actually change his expression so straight face is all we’ve got.

Look Reid has made it his practice to go on the Senate floor and simply tell outright lies knowing that apparently nobody will ever call him on it. Anybody remember him telling the public from the Senate floor that he knows for sure that Mitt Romney hasn’t paid income taxes since like the dawn of time? Or that the Koch brothers are un-American just because they exercise their freedom of speech?

Well, my hope is that come November we can reduce hot-rod harry to a back bencher where he can receive the care he needs in his senior years.

Hot-Rod Harry is off his meds again.

The Senior Senator from Nevada had this to say in an interview with HuffPo:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has what he says is an informed explanation for why Mitt Romney refuses to release additional tax returns. According a Bain investor, Reid charged, Romney didn't pay any taxes for 10 years.

I just.. I mean.. how did he…. SAY WHAT???

Those of you who have followed politics and especially the Senate will not have to go back too far to remember Senator Robert Byrd. I'll not go into the KKK membership of his youth, what I want you too remember that at the last throes of his career, every time he got up to speak the other members of his caucus were on tender hooks waiting to spin whatever bovine excrement that was sure to come out of his mouth. Point in fact, anybody remember this one (skip to the 1:10 mark for the money shot)?


 
My point in bringing up Byrd is that he added nothing to the Senate at that point in his life. Likewise, Reid is now clear of the proverbial shark by a good mile and a half. In his interview, he claims that Mitt Romney who has been in the public for more than 20 years and has a ton of money hasn't paid taxes for 10 Years? Really? And, Reid's 'informant' is an investor? What the hell does that mean.


Exit Question: What does Reid do all day? He hasn't passed a budget (required by law by the way) in 4 years. What are the people in Nevada paying this guy for?

Call from reality for Senator Reid

I swear this is the equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and yelling "I can't hear you - I can't hear you". The ever entertaining pomegranate politician, Harry Reid (D-NV), had this to say over the weekend via The Hill:

"That [the Tea Party] will pass. They will lose a number of seats next year,"

And his well thought out reasoning for this - Nada. Just wishful thinking given that Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) won the straw poll this weekend in Ames, Iowa. And oh, by the way, Congresswoman Bachmann is the Tea Party candidate in the race for the Republican nomination. Well played Mr. Reid, well played.
