Harry Reid Passes on White-Tie Affair With British Queen
KLAS. ^ | May 7, 2007

The U.S. and Great Britain looked like old friends Monday. The queen of England is in Washington, D.C. A state dinner is set to take place but one person will be missing. Nevada senator Harry Reid decided to not accept his invitation, but many others will be there.

It was a day of high pomp and pageantry and the weather sparkled. The kind of day one would expect to welcome a queen. On the south lawn of the White House, 7,000 invited guests wore their best hats and best smiles for Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip.

"It is a moment to take stock of our present friendship, rights taking pleasure from its strengths while never taking these for granted," said Queen Elizabeth II.

Harry was decidedly out-classed. :o)

I listened to Mark Savage gush on about Reid last evening until I had to change the station or risk barfing all over my dash board. Savage likes Hairless because Hairless is an ex-pug. Hairless’ refusal of the invitation demonstrates what a low rent piece of trash he is. Does anyone know if Babushka was there, or was she at a white tie affair for Hugo or Flydel?

Perhaps the Queen does not like to dine with weasels!

One would think wanna-be leftist dictators would want to attend such events, so they can learn how to look down at everyone else with a little more class.

Harry couldn’t decide what to wear a burka or a koofy. So he decided to stay home with some popcorn and watch some family home movies “night of the living dead”

LOL. I believe he’d look better in a burka so the rest of us wouldn’t have to look at the mug he calls a face.

He does not wish to associate with the leaders of our allies in Iraq.

‘It can’t be his lack of a white tie as he easily could have used his surrender flag...’

ROFL. How appropriate...!

Maybe he was concerned that his ‘Depends’ diaper couldn’t make it through such a long dinner party.

I don’t know why he was even invited in the first place.

I’m glad Elizabeth from “the (Rosies) View” (from the far left) was however. It made Rosie insanely jealous. She couldn’t stop badmouthing Bush today, (neither could that wanna be comedian) but she had to hold her mouth shut, because the chubby Dutchess was on today as a guest speaker.

Savage is educated and still dumn as a board. An educated fool. I've noticed he can can get sucked in by liberals he talks to if there is something he can relate to. Reid being a former boxing champion and having the right position on the ports deal apparently was enough.

“Ugly, stupid and now rude”

Harry, even tho I can’t stand your politics - I expect you to act in line with the position you hold. That includes attending state functions and paying “our - the people of the United States” respects thru - you - to foreign Heads of State.

Is this how your momma taught you? Or is this just SOP for folks around Searchlight (speed-trap) NV?

Harry - you pompus @ss - your arrogance is really giving away what a small mind you have - does not reflect well on the good people of Nevada.

I’ve heard that at one time Harry Reid was a casket model.
