Reid to Cantor: Stop 'throwing these bombs'

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is not backing down from his staff's attacks that House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) is preparing to push an "extremist" agenda.

"Well, I think we set the tone working together in the lame-duck session, the most productive in the history of our country, and we did that by working together," Reid said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "And I say to my friend, Eric Cantor, 'Let's stop throwing these bombs and doing things like thinking it's-- the American people are happy that you're sleeping in your office or reading the Constitution.'"

Reid added: "There are things we need to do to deal with the real people problems. People have been out of work for long periods of time. People who are sick and tired of paying-- governments like Saudi Arabia billions of dollars every year-- to burn-- in these gas guzzlers that we have. So, there are things we can do to work together. But I-- I think that-- throwing these bombs doesn't do the trick."

What the 'ell have that weirdo Harry and his Democrat cohorts done over the past two years to create jobs -- that is what most of the American public wants, and most Americans realize that the Democrats do NOT want unemployment to disappear, until a few months before the Nov/2012 elections.

Harry is pathetic.

Harry Reid is a mafia thug with so many skeletons in his closet that he should be spending jail time. Anyone interested in finding out how Dirty Harry is, should read my biography of Reid, it is the only book out there.

To 6 - LOL

Aside: Cantor is the wrong person for majority leader. We'd be better off, and better served, with someone like Bachmann in that position.

“Reid to Cantor: Stop ‘throwing these bombs’”

Agreed, we need to throw bigger more destructive “bombs”, to use your words.
