Reid: Public will greet health care bill with 'joy and happiness'
Washington Examiner ^ | Byron York

Posted on 12/24/2009 5:55:38 AM PST by Def Conservative

In the final minutes of the Senate health care debate, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said lawmakers would hear "an earful" about the national health care bill from constituents who are solidly opposed to the legislation. In response, Majority Leader Harry Reid cited the case of a young disabled boy in Nevada who Reid said will now have health coverage and said that Democrats will indeed hear an earful -- "an earful of joy and happiness."

"Yes, we'll hear an earful," Reid added, "but it will be an earful of wonderment and happiness."

Her Reid, insanity is a disease. He will need to get treatment..and fast.
Reid's level of insanity is in very advanced stages already.

Yes, we’ll hear an earful,” Reid added, “but it will be an earful of wonderment and happiness.” ...................................... He must be thinking about his leaving the Senate.

Between this announcement and Nancy Pelosi's invocation of God regarding abortions, the Communists are busy twisting the language for their own ends. "Arbeit macht frei," everyone.

"Harry’s been drinking again. I am beginning to think that this guy isn’t planning on running for reelection."

He doesn't need to. He has already feathered his nest from crooked real estate deals with his piece of crap son. My guess is he will run again anyway because his rotten ego is out of control.

I dunno. Let's do a vote on that one.

I have a question, once the Senate and House go to a Conference Committee and merge the two bills into a final bill will there be two more cloture votes (60 votes needed) in the Senate, one to begin debate and one to end debate and vote?

““Joy and Happiness?” “OMG, how propagandistic can he get?”

Umm, Stupid Harry has started mimicking The Dear One in North Korea. A like minded pair for sure...

"Yeah , Harry if the boy needs alot of money the ration board will deny him and

Harry is worth millons. You would think he would have tossed a few dollars to a disabled kid. Not. But he follows Obama who lets his half brother live im a mud hut and doesn't help.

Ya know, I can’t help but think the symbolism of this being done on the eve of the birth of christ. It just seems they are giving the finger to all people of faith. They know what we believe and they just passed a bill that is anti-american and pro-abortion....

I thought about adding “NOT A SPOOF!” in the title of this post...

These people are doped up on hope-n-change and they need to go to rehab.

One time when I was exiled in Wisconsin and so home sick for Colorado, a friend decided to visit for Christmas. She asked what I wanted from Colorado and I said anything, I would even welcome a Colorado Cow pie.

Well - she took me at my word and spray painted a cow pie gold and put glitter on it. It was quite lovely actually, except it wasn’t quite dry all the way through. After an evening of wondering what smelled under the tree she said, you might want to open my present. We did and had a great laugh and promptly put the present back into it’s wrapping and set it on the front porch.

Much to our surprise and chuckles, someone over night had stolen the present. He He.
I feel that Harry Reid and company gave us a cow pie in the form of health reform. Trouble is nobody is stupid enough to steal it if we put it out to dry.

Good. He'll be out in public shaking hands.

Doesn’t matter how insane the comment.

They have a dedicated force to enforce their directives.

We’ve got to get out the rifles, and be prepared to pay the price...

Hard to do.
