Yes, I know, we really don’t need more evidence that Harry Reid gives a bad name to unprincipled opportunistic guttersnipes everywhere, but this one-minute video of Reid on immigration from the early 1990s, and more recently, gilds the point nicely: »
That is the title of this excellent video by Tea Party Nation, which exposes the Democratic Party’s “dark money” networks and the epic hypocrisy of Democratic politicians like Harry Reid. We also appreciate the Power Line citations in the video: »
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s diatribes against the Koch brothers on the floor of the Senate might be evidence of certifiable insanity if anyone took them seriously. But the attitude of the mainstream media, to the extent one can be detected, is ho-hum. The fact that no moderately well informed citizen of sound mind takes Reid’s diatribes seriously should be news all by itself. Reid renders his diatribes on the »
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid apologized yesterday. Not for his false and defamatory attacks on Mitt Romney or the Kochs, but for the putative offense taken by someone somewhere at his slightly off-key “Asian-themed jokes” before the Las Vegas Asian Chamber of Commerce. No offense was taken by the group or, so far as we can tell, by the audience, but the ritual apology issued when America Rising posted video »
I doubt that Harry Reid is doing this year’s Democratic Senatorial candidates any favors with his deranged attacks on the Koch Brothers, his changes to longstanding filibuster rules as a means of confirming left-wing judicial nominees, and his over-the-top partisan bluster. A new poll suggests that he isn’t doing himself any favors either. The survey, conducted this week by Harper Polling, shows Reid trailing Nevada’s popular governor Brian Sandoval by »
It’s a little late in the day to start keeping track of instances of Democratic insanity, but what is to be done with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s continuing effusions? Yesterday Reid gave his best impersonation of Baghdad Bob, assuring all within his hearing that “the border is secure.” Speaking after the Senate Democrats’ weekly policy lunch, Reid expanded on his assertion: “[Sen.] Martin Heinrich [(D-N.M.)] talked to the caucus »
We have chronicled the descent of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid into incoherent babbling about Charles and David Koch. Reid thinks he is on to something, even though one observer commented that in his Senate speeches denouncing the Kochs, Reid sounds like a homeless man standing in front of a liquor store in Cleveland in his bathrobe. But at Politico, Kenneth Vogel says that Reid might finally be making “progress.” »
Tea Party Patriots have filed an ethics complaint against Harry Reid, arising out of his increasingly bizarre conduct, particularly his vendetta against Charles and David Koch. Reproduced below is the complaint itself. It cites this post by me along with a number of other sources. The complaint alleges seven “potential [ethics] violations regarding Senator Reid’s conduct”: First, Senator Reid’s attacks violate the Senate’s prohibition against using congressional space and official »
The mainstream media’s bemused observation of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s shenanigans stands as indictment of the media’s thoroughgoing partisanship in the guise of objectivity. It is a bloody outrage. Professional observers of politics like to highlight the new and the novel, yet they overlook Reid’s contribution to the field. In Reid we have a newfangled contraption. He revives old-fashioned, LBJ-style corruption in office. He combines old-fashioned corruption with unprecedented »
Kansas Senator Pat Roberts recently performed something like an intervention (as the Daily Caller’s Chuck Ross called it) addressed to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s “Koch addiction.” The Kochs are of course among Roberts’s constituents. Ross notes that at last count Reid has mentioned the Koch brothers 134 times on the Senate floor. It’s good to have Senator Roberts’s contribution to the shaming of Harry Reid. It takes a helluva »
Harry Reid’s obsessive campaign against Charles and David Koch has been drawing negative commentary lately, as observers note that it has gotten no traction with voters, is far removed from the issues that most people care about, and if anything is generating sympathy for the brothers. The Democrats’ latest venture–the screening of Robert Greenwald’s new edition of “Koch Brothers Exposed” at the Visitor Center in the Capitol Building–lends more support »
Greenwald in the Cities! The Democrats are illegally commandeering the taxpayer-funded Capitol Visitor Center to screen the “premiere” of a partisan film by far-left video maker Robert Greenwald, beginning in around an hour. The video is titled “Koch Brothers Exposed,” and has already been exposed as a fraud. In honor of this disgraceful event, we are recognizing the best video ever made by or about Robert Greenwald. It is a »
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has extended his campaign against Charles and David Koch to amendment of the Constitution. Reid supports amendment of the Constitution to allow Congress to regulate the Kochs campaign contributions. The amendment is phrased in impersonal terms — Byron York quotes the text in this column — but Reid has the Kochs on his mind: The Kochs’ bid for a hostile takeover of American democracy is »
On Tuesday, the Democrats will screen a “documentary” film that attacks Charles and David Koch in the Visitor Center of the United States Capitol. Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi plan to attend. Politico reports: The two congressional Democratic leaders will appear at a screening in the Capitol of “Koch Brothers Exposed: 2014 Edition” — a documentary that Senate Majority Leader Reid (D-Nev.) participated in. Both Reid and Minority Leader Pelosi »
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid sat down for an interview with BuzzFeed reporters John Stanton and Kate Nocera. It sounds like Reid might have been in a recumbent position during the interview. Reid has a few “issues” to work out. As you could easily guess, the Koch brothers were on Reid’s “mind,” such as it is. Here is the opening of the Stanton/Nocera report: Frustrated by the “sewer” of modern »
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 »
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s latest diatribe against the Koch brothers on the floor of the Senate might be evidence of certifiable insanity if anyone took it seriously. But the attitude of the mainstream media, to the extent one can be detected, is ho-hum. The fact that no one takes Reid’s diatribe seriously should be news all by itself, shouldn’t it? Politico has a brief account that expresses a cynical »
