Harry Reid: "Kill the filibuster"

[Copper]

Harry Reid is in favor of putting money in the correct pockets.

He pretends to not understand the filibuster

He would stop pretending if it put money in his pocket

[George K]

I (almost) respect Harry Reid as a savvy politician.

Whatever little respect(ed) I had for him I lost when he accused, on the Senate floor, Mitt Romney of not paying income taxes. He had no evidence, he just said it.

When asked about it, years later, his response was (paraphrased), "He lost, didn't he?"

What a despicable human being.

@george-k How many politicians can you describe as not being despicable?

Probably about 3.

John Adams (though he might not qualify as a politician)
Thomas Jefferson (though I am not a huge fan)
James Polk
I'm not so sure about Eisenhower.

When are you going to forgive Gerry Ford for forgiving Nixon?

Did I disremember or wasn't it Harry's BIL who whupped up on him?

[Mik]

Whoever it was didn’t do a very good job.
