FOX NEWS ^ | 12-28-2021 | Michael Lee , Chad Pergram

Former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid died Tuesday at the age of 82.

Reid, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2018, served in Congress from 1983 until his retirement in 2017. He announced in 2019 his cancer was in remission.

A Democrat representing Nevada, Reid served as senate majority leader from 2007-2015. He became most well-known for his use of the "nuclear option" in 2013, leading the charge to end the filibuster on executive branch nominees and judicial nominees other than to the Supreme Court.

Compared with his predecessor, Tom Daschle, Harry Reid displayed as much obstructionism, twice the hatred, and half the intelligence.

When I was young, I wanted to believe there were some good qualities in everybody. Alas, Mr. Reid proved me wrong.

I am glad he no longer is alive. The planet is a better place now. He was a POS and corrupt as hell.

Guess his Exercise machines got him finally.

Hope he’s getting a room ready for Nancy, in the fire down under.

I’m sure Romney will be rushing out to tell us how wonderful his magic underwear-wearing compadre was.

there are no do-overs- get right with God while you can- I don’t know where he is- likely not in heaven unless he accepted Christ as Savior at some point- but if he didn’t- it’s for eternity- there are no do-overs- and the reality of a person’s poor choice to reject Christ come hitting home the instant one ceases to live, and they realize what a terrible terrible choice they made to reject Him-

The late GREAT Mahjah Rushi often referred to the Senator as “Dingy Harry Reid”.

They’re still re-naming Las Vegas’ McCarran International Airport after this jerk, right? Ugh!

Ugh, it’s already a done deed? Sickening. I’ll continue to call it McCarran or just “Las Vegas”.

I’m not going to say out loud that I’m glad ole Harry’s dead.

But, I hope even The Leftist/marxist media will tone it down as I’m as sick of hearing about Harry Reid as I am Hillary Clinton. Both are EVIL people.

An aggressive/honest investigation of this man would have no doubt resulted in many indictments but for our corrupt judicial system.
