Asleep while Sen Harry Reid gives speech about US soldiers dying in Iraq.

Gosh, I wonder why the MSM doesn't make a deal about this like they did when RR dozed...?

Maybe they need to retire Senators at 100.

What a waste of flesh. Has anyone seen the font size on the paper he reads his Senate statements from? I think its 72 or so. He must be damn near blind.

Sheets is pretty old, not unusual for his age....but remember Harry Reid was the one giving the speech, someone younger might be tempted to doze.

Harry Redi giving a speech about soldiers dying in Iraq---like he cares--is probably enough to put most anyone to sleep,especially an older senior who should be in assisted living ,not the US Senate. Dont worry Byrd will wake up in time to vote for pork for West Virginia, thats the only reason they keep putting him back there.

Probably. Watch, as he's still sleeping,the people sitting next to him hear him murmur "White power!" in his sleep.

He was speaking in a very monotonous voice--I could see why someone would doze off. :)
