Reid: I Don't Get that Liberty & Freedom Stuff
www.joytiz.com ^ | 4/6/10 | Joy Tiz

Posted on 4/6/2010, 4:38:16 PM by jazminerose

Lame Duck Senator, Harry Reid who was welcomed by a throng of “more than 100 close supporters” in Searchlight, Nevada claims that Tea Partiers have no idea what they’re upset about:

“But he expressed confusion about what the Tea Party movement wants when its members call for more liberty and freedom and cite the Constitution in denouncing what they see as an expansion of the federal government, including with health care reform.”

“‘The people who are really upset don’t really know why they’re upset,’ Reid said.”

“‘What do they mean?’ Reid said he wonders when they call for more liberty and freedom.”

Reid is understanably confused about the concepts of liberty and freedom. He should have gone to the anti-Reid rally which drew 10,000–someone there could have explained this libery and freedom business to hapless Harry.

“‘I’m not a big poll guy,’ Reid said, dismissing surveys with a wave of his hand. ‘Everyone who knows me knows I have never paid attention to polls. The only poll that matters is the one on Election Day.”‘ Uh huh.

Or; as it was put in a different time; “let them eat cake”

I'm pretty sure I know what I'm upset about.

He really doesn’t understand much of anything. Probably the result of taking too many blows to the head when he was a “boxer”.

What a phony baloney - doesn’t care about *polls*. Wonder if he knows what a voter is?

Why are we upset?

The Senate bill wasn’t even completed, it wasn’t even a final draft yet was passed!

Maybe because, to add insult to injury, you added provisions to exempt certain members of Congress, the White House, and their staffs from obama care because ‘it is important for members of Congress to have choice’!!!

It’s like plunging a knife into someone’s gut and asking them, “Why are you in pain?”.

“‘I’m not a big poll guy,’ Reid said.

So, that means Harry is a ... small poll guy?

"I’m not a big poll guy," Reid said.....

..... and Mrs. Reid stood silently behind him, nodding and smirking slightly.

"Everyone who knows me knows I have never paid attention to polls. The only poll that matters is the one on Election Day."

Yeah, poor Harry. He thinks if he closes his eyes and can't see anyone, they can't see him either. I grew up with a kid who thought like that. This kid weighed 200 lbs. in the third grade and, when we played hide and seek, he thought because he couldn't see anyone as he stood behind a five year old dogwood tree that he was hidden.

We see you, Harry, you simple-minded fool.
