DC Mayor Vincent Gray Wednesday implored Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to allow the District of Columbia to function properly, asking Reid to release District funds being held up by the shutdown. As you may be aware, the federal government has substantial purview over DCs finances.
Heres the exchange:
Gray: Sir, we are not a department of the government . . . Were simply trying to be able to spend our own money.
Reid: Im on your side. Dont screw it up, okay? Dont screw it up.
Wow, check out the disrespect from Reid. I mean, the guy is mayor of Washington DC. Of course, this is typical sort of lefty thinking I know whats good for you, SO SHUT UP. Stupid.
Reid is testy of course because he feels Gray is playing into the hands of House Republicans, who are passing legislation piecemeal to fund the government. Theyve already approved a bill to let the District spend the money, which comes from its own tax revenues.
Reid and Obama fear that once they start allowing bills to move, theyll keep coming until everythings funded but Obamacare. So what Reid is telling Gray is, Youre messing with Barry and Is grand strategy, you ignorant little person.
I do love when politicians reveal themselves.
Heres some video of the exchange. Gray is the fellow on the right.

The Democrats own this shutdown, 100%.
I wonder what real polls would say?
Two criminals standing in front of a camera and the police didn’t arrest them??????>
And as if this wasn’t a eye opener to the Obama voters and those who support Obamacare and the Democrats..... wow !
Translated : Harry Reid to the Mayor of D.C. “ it’s all a part of the greater scam plan stan so don’t screw it up “
“Youre messing with Barry and Is ground...”
Wut?
No speekie Engrish?
This stuff drives me crazy. How do you take someone seriously who screws up the language like this?
In hairy screeds eyes, that would be piss-ant mayor of d.c. “Don’t bother me boyeee. I’m a very busy man.”
this whole exchange was revealing, and I suspect the mayor clenched a bit when white man Reid spoke disrespectfully to him
