Without a hint of bipartisanship, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on Thursday proclaimed the Republican deficit-reduction plan – the “Cut, Cap, and Balance Act” – as a waste of the Senate’s time.
“I think this piece of legislation is about as weak and senseless as anything that has ever come on this Senate floor. And I’m not going to waste the Senate’s time day after day on this piece of legislation, which I think is an anathema to what our country is all about,” Reid said on the Senate floor.
“So everyone, understand. We’re going to have a vote tomorrow (Friday)…I’m not going to wait until Saturday. We’re going to have a vote tomorrow, and I feel confident this legislation will be disposed of one way or the other.
“The American people should understand that this is a bad piece of legislation – perhaps, some of the worst legislation in the history of this country.”
I hope that extended middle finger is not aimed at the Republicans!

ReplyDeleteHow about the 900 billion stimulis that killed jobs.
How about cash for clunkers that scrapped otherwise usable vehicles.
How about Obamacare that will add 1.5 trillion to the debt and kill thousands of jobs.
How about the GM and Crystler bailous that Senator Obama voted for.
How about that war in Afganistan? Obama escaladed that and got us into Libya too.
Stop will your blaming Bush crap, this lies at the feet of Obama and the dumbocrats.
BOTH political parties work for the international corporate elite who finance the campaigns.
ReplyDeleteThe politicians do not work for us.
