Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said he would never agree to a debt ceiling deal that would require another vote before the end of 2012, and blamed “extremists” from blocking a deal now.
A reporter asked Reid Friday if he would be open to a compromise allowing another vote before the end of 2012.“No, no, no. We cannot be in this battle all the time,” Reid said.
“Right now the extremists have locked down this Congress,” Reid continued. “We’re doing nothing. The extremists have locked down the White House. They’re not able to do their work. The country is in an economic malaise and they want to keep this up.”

LOL! Reid, you are acting like a cat in the bath tub.
Don’t talk to me about a locked down Congress when your damn majority have not introduced or voted on a budget for over 800 days.
The House has passed a bill. The House has passed budgets for the past 2 years.
It’s the Senate that has brought the lockdown.
The Senate is run by who again??
Well Harry, just wait till you see what we do to congress after the next election. These will be the good old days for you marxists.
Yes, you and your ilk certainly have, Dingy Harry!
Reid is prepping the battle field for Obama’s invocation of the 14th Amendment and further usurpation of powers.
“Will we fight back or will we just sit back and accept their premise?”
Step 1 should be a massive Tea Party rally at the Capitol at least one million strong. Take it to the streets.
Well.....GOOD!!!!!
Not to worry Harry. The moron republicans are playing right into your hand.
Not to worry Harry. The moron republicans are playing right into your hand.
The people are trying to wrest the republic from the extremists. I can only hope that the people awaken before we the people have to wrest the republic from a dictator.
Not tight enough, apparently. Not as long as Reid is still able to get out of his office and talk to the press. We, the schizophrenic, hostage-taking hobbits must try harder!
The left wins the argument every time as they control the language and its use. The media hammers and hammers and hammers the same words and phrases until we are all mind numb robots. The MSM must be taken from the present officers, directors and stockholders. Josef Goebbels was right.”Take a lie make it big enough, repeat it often enough, and people will believe you.”
This isn’t Hrry Reid speaking, this is Obama speaking through Harry Reids mouth.
Reid is just carrying Obama’s water. They dont want to be talking about balancing the budget when the Usurper is running for President in 2012.
That is the only hold up in this deal Obama’s 2012 run.
He's of course referring to himself.
Big Government has been very good to Harry Reid and thus he thinks it's good for everyone. Well it hasn't been good to me and millions of other hard-working Americans who have each paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in social security taxes and income taxes to support a government-run Ponzi scheme and numerous grossly overstaffed federal bureaucracies. All the social security taxes I've paid have just been taken by Harry's Big Government and paid out to older people who entered the social security system much earlier than me and never paid much into the system in taxes. That's precisely the definition of a Ponzi Scheme--a scheme that uses money from later participants to pay huge returns on investment to early participants, and then ultimately implodes and pays a big negative return on investment to later participants. That such a dreadful, immoral, unethical scam could be run against the American people exemplifies what a bunch of selfish, short-sighted and dishonest people have been in congress since 1950. There is no cash in the social security "trust fund", only bonds owed by the Treasury, which is already $14 trillion in debt and will ultimately have no alternative but to pay a big negative return on social security taxes to people retiring after 2020. At this time, I'm putting increasing amounts of time into developing computer systems for trading in the financial markets, largely because the income from that trading is exempt from social security and medicare taxes.
The House Republicans are not extremists; they are patriots working to save America from the relentless liberal attack. Reid, Pelosi, Hoyer, and all the other traitorous far-left liberals in congress are the extremists who have badly damaged our economy and spent us into the fiscal mess we're in now.
