Reid: 'Anarchists have taken over' in Congress (Video) By Ramsey Cox - 09/12/13 09:49 AM ET
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on Thursday said “anarchists” have taken over Congress.
Reid (D-Nev.) said Tea Party Republicans are preventing progress on an energy efficiency bill by offering amendments on ObamaCare and other unrelated issues.
“We’re diverted totally from what this bill is about. Why? Because the anarchists have taken over,” Reid said on the Senate floor. “They’ve taken over the House and now they’ve taken over the Senate.
“People who don’t believe in government — and that’s what the Tea Party is all about — are winning, and that’s a shame.”
On Wednesday, Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) said he would prevent votes on lawmakers' amendments to the energy bill until he's assured he'll get a vote on his amendment, which would require some congressional and executive branch staff to enroll in the ObamaCare health exchanges.
“It’s defund ObamaCare, and I guess as the fiscal year comes to and end that’s what it’s all about,” Reid said.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) also introduced an ObamaCare-related amendment that would delay the individual health insurance mandate for one year, and codify the Obama administration's one-year delay of requirements that employers provide insurance.
“Let’s delay ObamaCare mandates for families right now,” McConnell said. “Then let’s work together to repeal the bill.”
The Senate is working on S. 1392, the Energy Savings and Industrial Competitiveness Act. This bill is meant to improve the energy efficiency of buildings. Reid said he hoped he and McConnell could work out a deal to allow votes on germane amendments later in the day.
Reid is an Anti-Christian that has taken control of the Senate, cause that is what I am reading...
Reid is correct. The anarachists (aka DIMs/LIBs/RINOs) have taken over for some time now. Now, if he can just lead them en masse to walk out today and resign immediately.
We believe in government- only NOT total government control of our lives
Only what is outlined in The Constitution
Reid is correct. The anarchists (aka DIMs/LIBs/RINOs) have taken over for some time now. Now, if he can just lead them en masse to walk out today and resign immediately.
Based solely on the name of this bill I can tell you that if it passes buildings will become less energy efficient and American industry will become less competitive.
Ever the optimist, aren't you?
;-)
Hey Harry, watch out for those Leon Czolgosz types.
VERSUS
If Reid can find anyone in the Congress that is actually working for the American people as opposed to themselves then maybe they can stay. At this point however, finding someone else seems the only option and he is not in the looking for mix.
LOLOLOL! It’s karma, Harry.
McConnell, you're a quisling surrender monkey and likely a traitor.
"Let's work together" is code for "We've lost the element of surprise, and have to push this off until we figure out a procedural strategy to fully fund and implement Obamacare."
Damn your hide!
In Harry Reid's country it's ok to give a permit to Muslims to protest on 9/11, but not to Americians.
Sorry Harry but one of us is going to have to move..... And I don't have any plans to move!
Does he think that he will elected to some high office in Hell?
I don’t think he understands how to be a human. He certainly has little regard as to what will happen to him in the afterlife. if he was Marley, his chains would weigh more than Scrooge’s entire house!
He belongs to the party that booed God.
But businesses have no idea how to be more competitive, so they need Government to force them to do competitive things like rebuild their buildings for minor efficiency gains.
In Harry’s senile mind, anarchist is an elected representative that disagrees with him and the Dems Marxist agenda.
Correction;
“People who believe in the system of government designed and given to us by our nation's founding fathers — and that’s what the Tea Party is all about — are winning, and that’s a great thing.”
