Video: Reid explains why he won’t move a bill for NIH to give kids cancer treatment
Conservative Intel ^ | David Freddoso

Posted on 10/02/2013 12:30:09 PM PDT by The Old Hoosier

In this clip, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., gets a taste of the same medicine Democrats have been dishing out in the Obamacare debate for years. Why, he is asked by CNN’s Dana Bash, will he not go forward if the House passes a bill restoring NIH funding so that about three dozen kids with cancer can get treatment right away?

Reid, looking a bit flummoxed, personally attacks Bash’s intelligence for asking the question...Speaking of the House, Reid asks, “What right do they have to pick and choose what part of government’s going to be funded?” There is actually an answer to this in the Constitution, in Article I, Section 9...

“What right do they have to pick and choose what part of government’s going to be funded?”

I'm willing to bet Old Harry has read the constitution just about as often as he's read a Bible or Book of Mormon.

Saving lives is not part of the Progre$$IVES AGENDA.

Harry is married at the hip to its lockstep mentality

Where have we seen that before ?

“There is actually an answer to this in the Constitution, in Article I, Section 9...”

The trouble is, the possibility that Reid has actually read the Constitution is about as great as the moon actually being made of cheese.

It’s their job!!

I think every new bill sent to the Senate should have one more agency defunded. First the EPA, then Dept of Education, then DOE, and so on. Stop negotiating with yourselves GOP.

Wow. Complete meltdown by the vile and disgusting pieces of dung that inhabit the city that used to shine like a beacon for the world to see.

Just pass the bill without Obamacare and then negotiate Obamacare separately. It is that simple.

Not a whisper of reporting on his remark from the media!

Thei’re all busy dressing up Harry’s Potemkin Senate.

This strategy of selectively funding political hot potatoes is getting to Obama and Reid and the Democrats.

The Pubbies should take that bill to the White Hut tonight to get it signed and then hold a press conference afterwards to announce whether the President signed onto it or not.

It is past time to start boycotting Las Vegas and Reno, until those controlling those cities and casinos get rid of Reid.
