Ugly stuff down there on the Senate floor

The Washington Post’s absurd Koch/Keystone reports by Steven Mufson and Juliet Eilperin appear to have been a setup for congressional Democrats, a sort of Tinker to Evers to Chance double play. Now Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has inserted himself into the action, as can be seen in a video that forms part of Jon Stewart’s comic take on Reid (below).

Unfortunately, everything Reid has to say is deserving of simple condemnation if not of mockery and derision; Stewart leaves all but Reid’s tongue-tied stupidity untouched. The video is nevertheless worth a look to see the continuing uses to which the work of Mufson and Eilperin is put by Democrats such as Harry Reid who remain in search of new lows in public discourse.
