The Harry Reid Comedy Hour

The Harry Reid Comedy Hour
by WFBMM

I apologize ahead of time if this has been covered, but I've been laughing ever since I read it. Harry Reid is one feisty dude. Check out what he had to say about Senator Carnival Cruz Line, as reported by the Huffington Post:

"Ted Cruz, well, he proved he has a great fundraising operation," Reid said. "But you don't have to have Harry Reid criticizing him. Republicans criticized him. What do you think that vote was last night from Republicans? That was a message to Ted Cruz: 'What the hell are you doing?'… He is a laughing stock to everybody but him. What has he accomplished other than raising some money for president? And if this man can get the nomination to be the Republican nominee for president, I pity the Republican Party.

"Ted Cruz is smart," Reid added. "He has always been able to talk down to people. He is now in the Senate. People are as smart as he is. He can't talk down to anyone anymore. But he has still not accepted that in his own head. He still thinks he's smarter than everybody else. He might be able to work a calculus problem better than I can. But he can't legislate better than I can."


Bwahahahaha! Come on, Harry. Tell us how you really feel. The more he talks, the more I adore him.

In the past, Harry Reid always seemed to be quiet and mild mannered to me. Boy was I wrong. Either I wasn't paying attention, or something happened during his last local election. As I recall, the media had his campaign on life support, but they were wrong too, because Harry came out swinging, and it seems he's been kicking ass and taking names ever since.

Speaking of which, Cruz isn't the only senator on Harry's Outhouse List:

"David Vitter is a, um ... he just is not playing with a full deck. Something is wrong there," Reid said, pointing to his head.


HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Give 'em hell, Harry! I love you!

And no, this was not snark! These quotes were 100% pure Harry. lol

after Gohmert called him an Al Qaeda sympathizer and McLame fired back "If someone has no intelligence, I don't view it as being a malicious statement".
