Did anyone else catch this? Harry Reid

Did anyone else catch this? Just now on C-SPAN, Harry Reid quotes communist Andrei Sakharov in closing statement of Senate debate on socialist health care.
Google: Andrei Sakharov
OK granted, Sakharov was not a ranting Leninist but why wouldn’t Harry quote a founder or an American patriot to make his simplistic, sophomoric point. O wait, Harry IS a ranting Leninist...

“Nobel Prize winner Andrei Sakharov, one of the great thinkers of the past century, knew that when opposing sides come together, the sum of their ideas can outweigh their parts.
“Sakharov said, ‘Profound thoughts arise only in debate, with a possibility of counterargument.’
