The Senate’s Plans Are Easy To “Reid”
By Wyatt Earp | December 13, 2009
This year, the United States Senate is comprised with more fools than the average Oprah audience. One senator stands out from all the rest, however. That man is “Dingy” Harry Reid. Reid sunk to a new low this week, when he compared ObamaCare opponents to the people who fought against Abolition. Classy.
This misguided fool is the subject of my Family Security Matters article. Here’s a taste:
In the heady days of the Second Continental Congress, the country’s elected representatives debated the future of the United States with civility. Sure there were heated moments, and even an argument or two – legend has it that John Adams once poked Thomas Jefferson in the eye with his tri-cornered hat – but for the most part, class and decorum ruled the day. After all, there is nothing more important than matters of state.
Sadly, today’s politicians seem to have forgotten that little nugget of wisdom. Instead of working for the people, some knuckleheads inside the Beltway are working against them. One day, we see video of a congressman calling Tea Party attendees “terrorists.” The next day, we hear a senator comparing our armed forces to Nazis. Tomorrow, the vice-president will file criminal charges on anyone who thinks his hair plugs are not “slammin’.” In the 21st century, politics have gotten nastier than Barbara Boxer on a bad hair day, and the government
health care debacle is bringing out the worst of some pretty bad people.Take Sen. “Dingy” Harry Reid, for instance. Reid, a Democrat from Nevada elected in 1987, has spent the bulk of his two decades in Washington tearing down detractors and building a so-called train to nowhere from Disneyland to Vegas. (Actually, if it were a real train to nowhere, its route would lead from Las Vegas to Al Franken’s brain.) Sadly, Al Franken seems like Stephen Hawking compared to the Senate Majority Leader of late.
