(Watch Reed video at link.)
“We should pass a homeland security bill with no strings attached to it,” said Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) after returning to the Senate floor for the first time since injuring himself severely while exercising in his bathroom at home.
“Why should we be dealing with issues that have nothing to do with homeland security? Nothing to do with homeland security?” he added.
Republicans are using the Department of Homeland Security funding bill “to roll back Mr. Obama’s executive actions on immigration — a move Democrats adamantly object to. If Congress doesn’t pass legislation to fund DHS by Feb. 27, the agency won’t be able to pay for some of its core operations”.
Reid has been surrounded by speculation both as to the seriousness of his injuries and his weak approval numbers back at home. Both issues have led to a fair number of media portrayals leaving Reid looking weak, at best. The Senate appearance and strong rhetoric may be as much designed to make Reid look strong, as they are meant to thwart Republicans, who now control the majority in the Senate.

The return of Captain Blight.
I should not say this....but....”whatever goes around, comes around”!!! Hang it up.....Harry....you are “political” toast....no burnt “political” toast!!! Resign....fool!!!
“.. while exercising in his bathroom at home”.
Um... what?
The undertaker returns.
This so-called man is nothing but a goose-stepping ideologue. Should be under investigation for dealing the Chi-coms but that will take more then McConnel can muster.
I wonder if he had one of those fool stretch bands with a knot in the middle? You are supposed to close them in the door jamb and then stretch your arms. I did not close the door all the way, the knot slammed into me. Could have stopped my heart, except I am young. If it smacked him in the eye, whoooeeee, those things could be lethal.
I wish him well - and OUT.
What are the rules in Nevada when a Senate seat becomes “vacant”? Does the Governor get to appoint a replacement until the next election?
“Why should we be dealing with issues that have nothing to do with homeland security? Nothing to do with homeland security?”
Ah, yeah, Harry - Illegal immigration has NOTHING to do with Homeland Security?
Probably had a photo of Nancy propped up on the sink.
Looks like Harry got a “Chicago message”.
