Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada bid a final farewell Thursday to his colleagues, following a 34-year career in Congress, the first four in the House, and 30 years in the upper chamber, where his leadership saw -- among other legislative accomplishments -- the passage of sweeping healthcare reform.

Reid, who has been the Democratic leader for over a decade, is retiring at the age of 77, just as Republicans have taken control of the White House and continued their hold on the legislative branch.

34 years of public service... and retire as a multi-multi-millionaire... how did you accomplish that, Harry?

It makes you sick to hear praise of such an outrageous liar. They Senators care little about the country.
