Pistols At Dawn
The American Spectator ^ | 4-2-15 | Scott McKay

Posted on 04/02/2015 6:53:43 AM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

Have you seen it?

The outgoing Senate minority leader Harry Reid, whose pitiful lie about being severely beaten in a vicious attack by an elastic exercise band continues largely unchallenged by our lugubrious mainstream media, said in an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash that he had no regrets about another pitiful lie he told back in 2012.

Asked whether he felt any regret for defaming then-Republican nominee Mitt Romney in 2012 by accusing him of tax evasion, in no less a venue than the floor of the U.S. Senate where he would be immune from suit, Reid’s answer was haughty and dismissive.

In the interview, Bash asked Reid if it bothered him that his tactics in telling that lie (disproven as it was when Romney later released his tax returns) were reminiscent to some of McCarthyism, Reid said, “They can call it whatever they want. Romney didn’t win, did he?”

Reid’s unrepentant villainy is no surprise. The man is perhaps the most dishonest, disreputable, personally and politically corrupt, dishonorable, shameless, scum-sucking degenerate every to hold such a high office in American history and that has been known for some time. Romney was hardly the only victim of his lies — there’s not a major issue in American politics of the last two decades about which this man hasn’t concocted provable falsehoods that he set loose on the Senate floor, and the victims of his defamatory remarks are legion. It’s also fairly clear that Reid’s private persona is no more palatable than what the public sees; after all, Reid’s current physical condition — he’s recovering from blunt trauma to his eye and jaw, as well as to his ribs, which obviously had to have come from a violent encounter with someone who knew what he was doing — isn’t the first...

I hear tell Reid will be permanently blind in that eye.

I rejoice! It is wonderous, beautiful news! Huzzah! Huzzah!

Thank you, God!

Rejoice and celebrate the Good News! Harry Reid will be permanently blind in one eye!

"Harry Reid, whose pitiful lie about being severely beaten in a vicious attack by an elastic exercise band continues largely unchallenged by our lugubrious mainstream media,"

Let's face it, Reid isn't strong enough to put enough tension in an elastic exercise band to do any damage even if it should somehow "snap".

“Have we any alternative?”

Well, there’s always Scott Walker...

Whoever did it, it was long overdue.

Either ‘Vito’ or ‘Chang’. Most definitely a mob goon. Regardless, it’s good to see that he got a beat down.

Harry Reid is also a homosexual pedophile.

This is well known.

I'm figuring the Mob.

He's got a history of black eyes, by the way.

But this one is so obviously 'see through' (pardon the pun) that EVEN MSNBC isn't buying it

Correction: a WELL-DESERVED beat down.

A friend of mine told me it's well known that Reid never pays prostitutes for their services and one of them got pissed off and punched him in the face.

Here's the ironic part. It was the same friend who told Harry Reid that Mitt Romney didn't pay his taxes for ten years.

What are the odds!

It only took until the fourth paragraph until I disagreed with Mr McKay.
“The man is perhaps the most dishonest, disreputable, personally and politically corrupt, dishonorable, shameless, scum-sucking degenerate every to hold such a high office in American history and that has been known for some time.”

Does he not rememberJim Wright, Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Ted Kennedy, Dick Durban and God knows, that is only the first five that come to mind. AND I did not even mention any Republicans.

That was my FAVORITE diatribe!

My question is WHERE did he come from? I don’t ever remember hearing his name until he became Majority Leader. Was he just hiding in the weeds, like a snake ready to strike?

Shouldn’t Romney be able to sue Harry for defamation of character?

No hooker could give this sort of beat down. This is mob.
