Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) complained that House Republicans are refusing to bring some Senate-passed legislation to the floor—but dismissed the question of when he might bring many House-passed measures up for a Senate vote.

“I can give you a long list of things we haven’t done,” Reid said at his weekly press conference when CNSNews.com asked if he would ever bring languished GOP bills up for a vote. …

No doubt there are good and bad bills from both houses but why take a chance doing something constructive.

Stupid, crooked, vengeful old man that needs to set out to pasture.

Yeah. The coming economic collapse is nothing short of hilarious. (I'm sure Reid has his own personal bunker well stocked by now).

Me too, there a few on this planet that I truly hate but this guy is one of them. And, you know this guy is corrupt to the core. I know we know the answer but I will ask the question anyway - why the heck hasnt there been one - ONE! - journalist to look under a few rocks to expose he and his son's corrupt land deals?

hmmmm - it takes too long to bring a bill up for a vote and gets in the way of getting things done??? You mean like a budget. Isn’t that what you job is. Seems to me this skunk communist has violated the law and Constitution for over three years, why isn’t he in jail
