Harry Reid - one of America's best By John Burtis

Thursday, April 26, 2007

Yep, Harry Reid, the four star commanding general of the supremely valiant Democrat Party has affirmed to the entire world that the war in Iraq is irretrievably lost. Er, at least that's what he said first, when he hollered, "The war in Iraq is lost," in the Left's great new oily bullpen, the floor of the US Senate.

But then, like any sterling Democrat Party leader, he began to back pedal almost as soon as he pronounced the Mid-Eastern bout over due to a TKO in the fifth, and by his third courageous retelling of this old Kerry story and his robotic limning of the Rosie O'Donnell approved, Nancy Pelosi written, and Honest John Murtha prescribed story line, the old boy sounded just like a Vichy French general or even worse, a Vichy politician.

You remember Vichy France. It was the oh so soft rump of an underbelly of what was left of a supine France after the vulpine Nazi's goose stepped their way, nattily attired all the while in seemingly clean uniforms, to the English Channel, through the Arc d'Triomphe, and over to the rail yards in Compiegne, where they had to use some dreadfully loud and highly disturbing dynamite to free the famous 1918 railcar needed to host the latest in a long line of French surrenders to the Teutons.

It wasn't an absolute cake walk, though, the panzer equipped Huns had to fight their way through waves of drunken French soldiers swigging from stolen bottles of cognac, short sweaty politicians in rumpled suits and pomaded hair waving wads of worthless francs, French generals lugging bulging suitcases and offering thumbs out for rides home, and pleading French female camp followers...

No, Harry hopes to one day stand near the Ka'bah in Mecca, in the company of thousands of cheering jihadi suicide bombers, Pinch Sulzberger, and Nancy Pelosi, who'll stand arm and arm with Bashir al Asad, and receive those coveted silver wings on his chest - pinned, no doubt, by a softly smiling Ayman al-Zawahiri accompanied by his doughty band of thugs, thugees, and that dwindling membership from the bomb tossing bands of brothers.

No need for a barf alert. The title had an invisible sarcasm tag. Canada Free Press is a great conservative site.

[Recon Dad]

I read somewhere that he was once a bouncer in a brothel

Probably overstated and was just a clean-up boy.

...yellow spinelessness of the craven mealy mouthed senator from Nevada...

Good description of Harry POS Reid.

[smoothsailing]

treason, is this man currently out of jail?

[maica]

Yes, it is. The author’s style reminds me a lot of our own JohnHuang2.

treason, is this man currently out of jail?

Yep, along with the rest of the Democrat Party, must be some sort of work release deal.

Hard to understand why the Dems picked Harry Reid to lead them. He is about the nearest to nothing that ever walked into the Senate Chambers.

Excellent cartoon. Describes the situation perfectly.

True, but then they don't really have much to choose from.

I would have preferred Robert Byrd or Patty Murray!

...yellow spinelessness of the craven mealy mouthed senator from Nevada,...

Unlike the MSM of this country, this guy calls 'em like he sees 'em. What a spot on article!!!

[WTSand]

He’s running spots on local talk radio in Vegas,trying to save his sorry ass.

Harry Reid supports al Qaeda and Iran in Iraq.

[jazusamo]

the old boy (Monsieur Harry Reid) sounded just like a Vichy French general or even worse, a Vichy politician.

You're correct, Smooth, it is a thoroughly entertaining piece. But then truth is always stronger than fiction and John Burtis managed to incorporate much truth in the piece.
