Title: Reid Claims Media Is Unfair to Democrats
Post by: Olivia on October 07, 2013, 09:18:21 pm
In an interview with Politico, Senator Harry Reid argued that the media is being unfair to Democrats in its coverage of the shutdown. Reid said he believes that there is no way someone viewing the situation objectively could conclude that Democrats are at fault for the shutdown.

“You and other journalists have a real shortcoming in that you are trying so hard to be fair that you are unfair,” Reid said. “Democrats have had almost nothing to do with the problems here. It’s all Republicans.”
------
Media Research Center, a conservative media-watchdog group, found that in 39 stories in the two weeks leading to the shutdown, CBS, ABC, and NBC blamed Republicans 21 times for failing to reach a budget agreement, both parties four times, and didn’t once blame the Democrats. In the 14 other instances, the reports blamed nobody.

He does actually believe that, you know.

That's what makes him so dangerous.

Dangerous in what way?

I just think that he's a very egocentric angry and vindictive human being.

He lives in the same phony 'growing' economy that you and I do.  He sees firsthand what is happening the the economy. 

And Harry doesn't care.  He's grown his personal wealth to the point he couldn't possibly spend it all.

He's a powerful man and could override Obama's destructive policies...but instead he perpetuates the angst.

He smells tourists in the Summer.  Ask him.

If Reid were president, he would build concentration camps for the evil Tea Parties. He has already said they were dangerous.

Q: Sen Reid, shouldn't we do all we can to help children with cancer?
A: Why would we want to do that?

A: Why would we want to do that?

And his following words were to the effect that he had "...twenty-two hundred families .....with problems of their own!"

IOW...he wasn't 'professional' enough to know that his words were private and showed his TRUE Commie Leftist self.

Be careful, Harry!

In other news, the sun actually rises in the West because if you keep going west, but not all the way to your starting point, you eventually end up in the spot where you saw the sun rise.

This proves that the sun rises in the west...

Pelosi is calling the shutdown "the Tea Party Shutdown."  If the rats take the House in 14, Reid will probably get his camps.  They are willing to stop at nothing.

In all fairness, rounding up a bunch of Tea Partiers in one place would probably not be one of their brightest ideas.
