Dem Senate Leader Harry Reid [NV] called the president 'a loser' today while Bush is representing the country overseas.... MORE...

[speed_addiction]

Now if a republican called Reid a loser.....

Well maybe if put in the proper context. The President could say, "Loser Harry Reid said in Vegas today..."

[SF Republican]

They haven't won an election this century - millennium

[Kenny Bunkport]

Yes, the Democrats are truly a 20th Century party.

[Pukin Dog]

Well, the smackdown is going to be tremendous, while also long overdue.

COMPLETE TEXT OF ARTICLE IS BELOW:

In the course of a discussion on filibusters and Senate rules, Washington's top Democrat gave the 60 juniors a lesson in partisan politics, particularly about the commander in chief. "The man's father is a wonderful human being," Reid said in response to a question about President Bush's policies. "I think this guy is a loser.

"I think President Bush is doing a bad job," he added to a handful of chuckles.

"He's driving this country into bankruptcy," Reid said, referring to the deficit. "He's got us in this intractable war in Iraq where we now have about 1,600 American soldiers dead and another 15,000 injured."

Republican National Communications Director Brian Jones issued a statement calling the senator's comments "a sad development but not surprising from the leader of a party devoid of optimism, ideas or solutions to the issues people care about most."

After the statement was released, Reid phoned the Review-Journal to acknowledge he thought he crossed the line.

"You know the president is in Europe, probably sleeping," Reid said in an interview this afternoon. "But I called (Karl) Rove and apologized for what I said."

I remember during the '92 campaign, Bush 41 got such bad press from the MSM that he groveled and had to apologize for calling Clinton/Gore "those two Bozo's". Don't hold your breath foe an apology from Harry.

How about everyone's favourite, Islam? Jimmy Carter showed them cowardice during the Iranian hostage crisis, and Clinton sucked up to Arafat and the PLO during the 90's. Plus, the entire "blind eye" diplomacy which allowed UbL and the rest to lay their plans. Clinton is more responsible for the Islamic war on America than anyone else. Arabs prey on weakness because they totally disrespect it. Clinton was weak from Day One. Hillary must have been a huge windfall for them.

Carter and Clinton...America's very own war criminals.

Well, Harry, that "loser" beats you and your ilk like a rented drum so what does that make you?

[jd777]

Sometimes I wish Bush really would go into fascist dictator mode.

Not me. I like living in a country where people can say whatever they like. God knows someday we might have a president who really is a loser, and I don't think you should get dragged away by secret police just for saying it...

[Big Guy and Rusty 99]

I'd rather be a loser than a scumbag marxsucker like Harry Reid.

[jackbill]

How is he a loser? The only losers in Washington are the Democrats. They haven't won an election this decade.

The RATs haven't won since the last century!

"You know the president is in Europe, probably sleeping," Reid said in an interview this afternoon. "But I called (Karl) Rove and apologized for what I said."

That's a disgusting so-called apology.

Clinton/Gore "those two Bozo's"

Wow, you brought back a great memory. I was at a Bush-Quayle rally in the Detroit suburbs when he called those two Bozos "Bozos".

Unfortunately, I think this was when Bill Kristol informed President Bush 41 that he was down in the polls in Michigan and that he was most likely going to lose the election.

I still blame that F'ning Perot. Would a 9/11 style attack have happened if Perot did not spoil the election and 41 had won?

Reid is a sniveling little sh-t. Just like Tommy D.

Notice how he said it after Bush had flown over the pond.

He knows Bush could kick his sniveling little a--.

[Howlin]

I'm old enough to remember when that just was *not* done.

And they keep right on doing it.

[Howlin]

But he only called AFTER it hit the news.

[Howlin]

Weasel words.

[cgbg]

Poor Harry. In the old days the major media would have successfully covered up his remarks.

Now he has _us_ to deal with--and we will make sure every American knows exactly what he said because _we_ will hound the media until they tell the story.

Let the word go out.... :-)

I think its time to fight fire with fire.

Our elected Republicans don't have to stoop to their level....but our Conservative Pundits can.


SO.....in the words of Richard Cheny, Mr. Reid.....
