NUTS!!!
Blow it out yer behind reid.
First, pass a budget in the Senate. Then let’s talk about tax reform.
Just like they’ll “talk” about immigration reform once 11 million people are made citizens.
Or like how they’ll “talk” about entitlement reform after the debt ceiling is lifted.
Yawn.
Sent a new bill to Reid that is 100 % blank. Then tell him he will have to pass it, to see what is in it.
NO
Just talk I guarantee..nothing will be done by Reid, but talk!
This is the typical game the demons play and the Republicans always fall for, just like Lucy yanking the football away after she has suckered Charlie Brown into trust her again.
This will be the dem tactic. Keep offering to talk about anything - any other topic - except Obamacare. They know if they can take the Republicans eye off Obamacare, it’ll be enshrined forever.
Lets talk about Voter ID laws
Lets talk about building that wall on the southern border
Lets talk about...
Just give up on this Obamacare crusade.
Sooner or later, they’ll make a quid pro quo offer the Republicans will find too good to pass up.
And then its over.
...McConnell got Reid to agree to hold a high-profile debt-limit vote next month -- just before the president's State of the Union address...Specter suggests Reid reneged on word.
Newly-turned Democrat Arlen Specter today hinted that that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid reneged on his word to allow Specter to keep his seniority on committees on which he sits. "Sen. Reid assured me that I would keep my committee assignments, and that I would have the same seniority as if I had been elected as a Democrat in 1980," Specter said in a written statement today.Reid Bows to Far Left as Rs Rank Judges Issue #1.
And they undoubtedly have the Rasmussen survey results in the back of their minds as they consider their reaction to Majority Leader Reid’s broken promise to confirm three appeals court nominees before the Memorial Day recess, as well as Reid’s sure-to-be-broken earlier promises to meet the historical average (17) for appeals court confirmations in a president’s final two years. With just a couple of months left in the confirmation window, Reid is less than halfway to meeting that average.[snip]
“A good GOP Senate source reports today that Minority Leader Mitch McConnell addressed the entire Republican Conference … about the judge-fight issue. McConnell is said to have been very insistent that he would not let Majority Leader Reid's broken promise go unpunished … He would not tell the Conference exactly what action he was planning, but he did say it would be very firm, and that all concerned would know it when we see it.” – Quin Hillyer (5/21/08)

While Sen. Lott overcame numerous obstacles to get Paez and Berzon confirmed, Sen. Reid has looked for excuses to renege on his pledge.

GOP senators are understandably angry that Sen. Reid broke the golden rule of senatorial honor by reneging on his commitment.

Democrats Target Coburn’s Holds
To ease passage of the public lands measure, Reid promised Coburn the chance to offer a limited number of amendments.Reid: No Vote On Lifting Drug Import Ban Before Health-Care BillBut after the majority leader objected to a Coburn proposal that would have eased restrictions on firearms in national parks, the package stalled for months, prompting Coburn to charge that Reid reneged on their agreement.
Coburn eventually got to offer four amendments — all of which were defeated — but not the guns measure.
Republicans accused U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., of reneging Tuesday on a pledge to allow a Senate vote on a measure lifting an import ban on pharmaceutical drugs before lawmakers take up health-care legislation.The development, supported by major drug makers, comes as the Senate is moving to craft the politically delicate compromises needed for the broader health care overhaul bill.
In a letter to a bipartisan group of senators that have been pushing for the import ban to be scrapped, Reid said there wouldn't be time in the busy legislative calendar for full consideration of legislation lifting the long-standing prohibition now.
"He did commit to us and obviously that commitment is not going to be kept," Senator John McCain, R-Ariz., said Tuesday evening.
Recently...
AFL-CIO Boss to Harry Reid: Go Nuclear
Sen. Jeff Merkley (D., Ore.) accused Republicans of trying to “disable the administration” by blocking the appointments, though he stopped short of saying “campaign donations are directly attributable” for GOP opposition. Merkley received $1.2 million from labor groups since 2010, including more than $275,000 for his 2014 campaign.Merkley defended President Obama’s recess appointments while the Senate was in session because “functionally we were out of session.” He also accused McConnell of violating a pair of “gentleman’s agreements” to confirm President Obama’s nominees without “obstruction” from the minority.
Obama and Reid reneged on a labor truce of their own when the Democrats re-nominated Block and Griffin to the board, according to a top Republican aide.

Why would he save one child with cancer when he’s got 1100 people out of work at Nellis AFB?

BS.
Nothing that spews from Reid’s sewer hole should EVER be trusted.
I would NEVER make a deal with Reid. No last smoke, last words or blindfold.
NUTS!!!
Yea, gimme what I want today, and we can discuss the possibility of me promising you something in the future.
Thanks, but no.
Typical Democrat. “You give us what we want first, and then we might talk to you about what you want.”
They might as well follow up with “And it can be anything you want, as long as you don’t get any of it.”
My Response back to him after watching that video is, We WILL NOT Negotiate with Terrorists.
Chuck Schulmer is the most dispicable Human I think I have ever observed. Followed closely by Harry the Mobster Reid.
Ted Cruz must have so incensed those cockroaches they have nothing but blood in their eyes. Wow, such hate.
They have been shown to be a bunch of conspiring treasonist bastards and they aren’t liking it one bit. They must be not enjoying the feedback from the Citizens very much.
Note to Chuckles, the more you make this about Ted Cruz the more publicity he gets. ALL OF IT GOOD!
‘So if you give us ‘clean’ CR will will agree to raise taxes’
Sounds like a great deal.
Harry,
Why don’t you have your staff send some “confidential” emails to the opposite side?
Your credibility is shot.
Ping.
Go for it, but put in a sunset clause. Govt stays as is until the results of “tax reform” are presented, in say two weeks.
Give Reid a reopening of govt, and he has zero incentive to negotiate honestly.
Hey Harry, SHOVE IT!
