Expel Sen. Reid
Tuesday, May 17, 2005
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid is using the politics of personal destruction to redefine McCarthyism.
Mr. Reid, a Nevada Democrat, announced on the Senate floor Thursday that he continues to oppose judicial nominee Henry Saad because of "a problem" in the highly confidential FBI report regarding the Michigan judge. "All you need to do is have a member go upstairs and look at his confidential report from the FBI, and I think we would all agree that there is a problem there," Reid said.
Even Mr. Saad is not allowed to see his file.
Standing Rule of the Senate 29, Section 5, states that a senator risks expulsion......
snip
..... only Judiciary Committee members and the nominee's home-state senators are allowed access to it.
Reid is neither.
Now that Reid has let Saad twist slowly, slowly in the wind, the Senate should act swiftly to enforce its own rules in a bipartisan move to expel him.
Until this moment, Sen. Reid, America never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness. You have done enough.
Have you no sense of decency?

Hmmmmm? I must have been thinking of Sarbanes.
Thanks for listing that.
Kinda like that game Whack-A-Mole! :)
I think every Republican with a backbone should go purview Reid's FBI jacket. Normally it is those who scream the loudest about another's character, are the one's who has something to hide. NSNR
Reid is just playing the role for the demo-commies. The role of a "Fool." Putting a democrat in the whitehouse will bring about the destruction of America as we know it. NSNR
Now, that would be sweet poetic justice....
Yes, he would be a mean drunk who would get his ass kicked quite a few times when dealing with people possessing a spine. NSNR
Reid, a psycho nut case with an attitude. Commie bred and commie fed. NSNR
Levin is a disgrace to all the jewish people and as a US Senator. Actually like all the democrats with exception of Zell "give them hell" Miller. NSNR
They've must've read your post yesterday. You're show prep for the rest of the media... LOL.
Looks like someone was listening. Dingy Harry coming up with Ethics Committee action...... Where will it go? Probably nowhere.... But, time will tell......
Can't someone cork that idiot! I can't stand listening to him any more.
He's even more of a phony than Dashole with that temperate voice. I bet he screams like a banchie.
Excellent material for a tag line !
And I can't stand to see his evil little pig eyes while he's lying his butt off.
