Reid, Obama and the Rats are desperate to pump up public sector union support for votes.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

It’s called the Wellstone Principle.

“Reid says government jobs must take priority over private-sector jobs”

Jobs that do not create tax revenue. This doddering old fool needs to retire.

[MrB]

It’s a very Communist principle.

No one is to be able to attain a livelihood except through “the party”, ie, the government under communist control.

[LasVegasMac]

Sheer stupidity on parade.

Again.

and again.

[jazusamo]

I’m confident he knows he’s lying through his teeth.

[Hoffer Rand]

"It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine..."

Unbelievable. If the Pubbies don't put this in multiple commercials and blast it from the rooftops, they just have no spine. Oh wait, we knew that.

[the invisib1e hand]

"It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine; it's the public-sector jobs where we've lost huge numbers, and that's what this legislation is all about," Reid said on the Senate floor.

Read it, folks. What's the "legislation all about"?

Separately, this scum would clearly sell his mother if he needed money for a cup of coffee.

[Red Badger]

Government of The Government, By The Government, and For The Government............Lincoln must be spinning in his grave...........

"It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine; it's the public-sector jobs where we've lost huge numbers, and that's what this legislation is all about," Reid said on the Senate floor.

Nevada should be kicked out of the Union for re-electing this bufoon. Let Guam or Puerto Rico in so we don't have to buy new flags.

[meyer]

Effin’ communist!

My uncle fought in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam against people like Reid. Are the people in Nevada THAT stupid to keep electing someone like this?

[Da Coyote]

“...This doddering old fool needs to retire.”

Change “retire” to “suffer a humiliating, long suffering death, followed by a grave burning.”

This guy is the epitome of a liberal...senile, stupid, and couldn’t ever hold a real job.

[mbynack]

The Obama Jobs plan funds government jobs for one year. After that the grant money runs out and the states are left to come up with the money to keep the teachers and first responders employed. This insures that there will be a new crisis within two months of the 2012 elections. It’s all a political game designed to get Obama reelected - not solve the crisis that they insist on prolonging.

[going hot]

Doesn’t say much for the majority of the Nevada voters
in the last election, LOL

[MCF]

Sometimes when I see what Reid says I think ether Scott Ott or John Semmens is writing his speeches. Reid is his own satirist.

[red-dawg]

"It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine; it's the public-sector jobs democrat voters where we've lost huge numbers, and that's what this legislation is all about," Reid said on the Senate floor.

There, fixed it.

"It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine; it's the public-sector jobs where we've lost huge numbers, and that's what this legislation is all about," Reid said on the Senate floor.

[muir_redwoods]

Is Reid secretly working for the republicans? This is the sort of sound bite that writes it’s own campaign commercial. Imagine playing this a dozen times a day starting in October 2012.

[muawiyah]

Reid is delusional. There are more government employees now than when the Great Obama Recession began.

There are millions fewer private sector employees now.

[jonrick46]

We are in the economic mess we are in because the public sector is given priority over the private sector. It is a easy campaign fund money stream from the unions.
