Harry Reid Pledges Not To Work With Mitt Romney If He Is Elected

“Mitt Romney’s fantasy that Senate Democrats will work with him to pass his ‘severely conservative’ agenda is laughable,” Reid said in a statement. “In fact, Mitt Romney’s Tea Party agenda has already been rejected in the Senate.”

No way Reid will try to “mend fences” with republicans. Nasty little weasel. He can’t live forever.

Reid said Romney, a fellow Mormon, “sullied” their shared faith after the GOP nominee told a group of donors that 47 percent of Americans suffered from a sense of victimhood and mooched off the government.

I don't know whether making a political statement "sullies" a faith, but I do know that Reid clearly violated the ninth commandment "thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor" with his tax charges against Romney. In fact, he's made a career of it.

Is this from The Onion?

[wewereright]

I don’t want the republicans to work with this slimeball or any socialist democrat. Call them out every day for exactly what they are.

One too many shots to the head, Harry?

I hope Romney sets aside a few million to lay a little retribution on Reid’s head . Some of those high tech billboards with his pic and scrolling through his lies, distrotions and outright crimes, posted in prominent places in Washington DC and Nevada would be a start. He can start with Reid’s comments about Obama:”He [Reid] was wowed by Obama’s oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama — a ‘light-skinned’ African American ‘with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,’ “ Halperin and Heilemann say.

There’s no need for Reid to act in a conciliatory manner, he knows the GOP is a bunch of sissy’s and will cave to Barry’s directives.

Horse Pucky! All Reid has to do is sit in his office, make a few speeches and tell the press what to write and say. Then the GOPe in the Senate will come crawling. Same $hit different day. Same old, same old.

Why should Reid try to mend fences.
He has the majority, he has the Senate by the balls. The Republican minority leader Mitch McConnell is soft and pliable, and is no danger to anything Reid wants to do/

As for Boehner he is even softer than McConnell, and certainly he and Reid have a good relationship, because Boehner isn’t going to fight for anything. Boehner may whine and cry a bit , but when it comes down to the Nitty Gritty, he will fold like a cheap suit.

Reid is partisan because they let him get aay with it, if once in a while they pulled his chain he would straighten up fast, but they don’t, they just whine and back off.

If we had one Republican who would speak up and continue speaking up Republicans would gain strength. The Republican strength died when Gingrich left. No one has taken his place.

Reid can’t get a simple budget in 4 years so little should be expected of him.

[Artie]

“Hey GOP.... If you had a pair, You would tell Reid to go f@#k himself....”

Hey US Senators, why doesn’t a man amongst you go and bitch slap lil’ Harry til he pouts. I’ll pay. What do you say John?

[NTHockey]

There is/was Sarah Palin; but Democan and Republicrats together did a number on her. Talk about “War on Women”.

[untwist]

If the Republicans were smart, they would nominate Mitt Romney for Speaker of the House. He has the knowledge, the facts and the issues on his side. He could beat Reid one-on-one quite convincingly. We know from the debates how he holds up against Obama. This would be a smart move.

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

Yea, but there's always another nasty little weasel to take his place.

Why would Reid care about working with Republicans? He knows he has the press on his side--to hell with Republicans, who needs them?

[ilovesarah2012]

I believe Allen West could have been a great leader but voter fraud made sure they didn’t happen.

[originalbuckeye]

Harry Reid, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Stephanie Cutter, Nancy Pelosi, etc, etc etc. They all started 'controversies' with lies and USA-Pravda ran with the lies. This kept the spotlight off all of the Obama scandals for the whole of the Presidential campaign. They are nothing but gossip mongers but their lies dominated the national narrative. It is tough when USA-Pravda refuses to report the real news. Too bad so many have bought the lie that FoxNews tells lies. I weep for the future of our once prosperous, successful country. The next 4 years belong to the Socialists. IF we can get control back, it will be decades unraveling all the destruction.
