I got the warm & fuzzies listening to his (fake) tale about the skateboard kid who wanted to be like Harry....

[F16Fighter]

Is Uncle Harry trying his best to snow under win over the kids?

Gosh, he cares!

"Inexperienced investors could put their money in U.S. Treasury bonds, which pay guaranteed rates double or triple those offered by Social Security"

 

If the Dims oppose this, it means that they have no faith in the U.S. Treasury.  Why do they stay in this country?  MHO

The "old down home" story sounded like it was crafted by Gephardt.

[pissant]

You mean Dickie "my dad was a milkman" Gephart is a ghost writer for John "my dad was a millworker" Edwards and Harry "my dad worked the hard rock mines" Reid. Nah

[BADROTOFINGER]

Plus ca change, plus c'est la mem chose...JFK

[dimmer-rats stealvotes]

I agree. He is a frail-minded man. Has he been asleep for several years? The Democrats woke him up to be the minority leader, and he's been confused since.

John Carradine"""

Don't insult (the late, great) John Carradine by including him in the same sentence with slimey Reid. Carradine had class (a Shakespereian scholar, too, I believe) - - - his somberness was a theatrical put-on. Off-screen he was quite lively, as I've heard.

The Democratic response to President Bush's State of the Union address gave most Americans their first good look at new Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada. They had to come away unimpressed by his diatribe and annoyed by his shamelessness.

As stated by a fellow Freeper yesterday....the dimms have replaced the undertaker with the grave digger.

i thought reid was that phantasm guy, he just
cut his hair for his DUmmie response gig. now its back to propelling orbs at unsuspecting people in an attempt to
bring them over to the dark side.

[F16Fighter]

I was referring to Carradine's long-time character persona.

Reid looks like he just stepped out of "American Gothic". If I could Photoshop I would put his and Pelosi's faces in that picture and title it stuck in the 30's.

thought reid was that phantasm guy,

I'm from Carson City, Nevada. I listened to the State of the Union speech in a hotel in in Southern California. Harry Reid's rebuttal speech was a hoot. He recycled his wornout campaign material:

1. He was born in Searchlight, Nevada.

2. His father was a hard rock miner.

3. His mother took in laundry for a little extra money

4. He eats at the Nugget in Searchlight

5. He played on the dusty streets of Searchlight as a child

6. etc. ...

For six months before the November election we Nevadans were flooded with radio, TV, and print ads including those biography talking points. What a hoot!

[Irish Queen]

Absolutely! Las Vegas is a blob of blue in a sea of red. Real Nevadans are buckaroos, ranchers, military personnel, construction workers, American Indians, retirees, mechanics, .... Without the massive amounts of money from the Casinos and several unions Harry Reid would actually be living full time in Searchlight, Nevada, and eating at the Nugget.
