Senate minority leader's stunt yesterday to shut down the Senate by invoking Rule 21 and placing the Senate into closed session to discuss the intelligence that led to war means that the Nevada democrat is one of two things: A genius or a moron.
The plan was reportedly hatched on Halloween along with his partners Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) and Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.).
That's going to make him a moron in many eyes. His talking points were then e-mailed:
* Most important decision a President makes is to put American lives at risk and go to war.
* Many of us supported the decision to invade Iraq based on the national intelligence presented at the time.
* Over the past few months, and vividly last Friday, we’ve learned that we were given bad information. Americans were intentionally deceived.
* White House indictments confirm Republicans tried to silence critics and cover up the real intelligence.
* America deserves answers. National security is at stake.
* If mistakes were made, we need to know. Otherwise, we are doomed to repeat them.
* Republicans committed to investigate how national intelligence was used to set the stage for war.
* Now, they are refusing to keep that commitment. What are they afraid of America learning?
* Republicans must come clean. It is our shared responsibility to be straight with the American people.
* Stakes could not be higher. That is why we are demanding answers through an unprecedented closed Senate session.
* We will not let up until America gets answers.
* Together, America Can Do Better"
That last line sounded a lot like Bill Clinton, But without that quivering lip - it may even be tough to score points there. ...

Pushing the "MORON" button now...
I vote "moron" also.
Why, I think I'll vote for moron. LOL
Freedom of speech makes it easier to spot the morons! LOL
Since the same intelligence used by Bill Clinton and EVERY sitting Democrat Senator in 1998 to justify bombing Iraq was part of the Bush Admins Intelligence Breif in 2003, please explain to me how "Bush lied" and They ALL did NOT? If anyone LIED to us it was Bill Clinton and the Democrat Senate Leadership when they developed this Intelligence in 1998. When can we expect the letters of resignation from ever member of the Democrat Senate Leadership over this "lie"?
I'm guessing that the first thought Reid had when he woke this morning was:
"It seemed like a good idea at the time..."
I'd say "moron" if I didn't know Dingy Harry was a secret RNC agent charged with discrediting the Democrat party.
Moron
If Schumer was involved it was neither genius or moron. It was a publicity stunt, nothing more.
Ried is "Mired on Moron".
with his partners Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) and Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.).
"Moron" is correct.
I would be with you if I thought the Republicans had the stones to allow an investigation to go forward and then rammed the dagger home into Clinton, Tenet, Wilson, Clarke, and the rest of the two faced buggers that got us into this mess.
But they won't.
Stuck on Stupid ------ MORON
MO-RON!!!!

Mormon....I mean MORON! (both are true however)
