Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) says he will work with Republicans when he's in the minority, vowing it will not be “get-even time.”
Reid said Democrats, who lost the Senate in the midterm elections, will not operate the way Republicans did as the minority party, accusing them of obstruction.
"We want to legislate. We’re not for stalling," he told reporters Thursday.

Empty promises from an empty soul. Reid promising to be non-obstructionist (as he claims Republicans did) doesn’t matter now. Obama is the one that still needs appointments confirmed, Obama is the one that needs new laws (ones HE wants), Obama is the one that needs money to run his cabal.
As far as I’m concerned, there is nothing for the Democrats to ‘obstruct’. If all the Republicans did was to STOP any and EVERYTHING Obama wants to do in the next two years I’d be happy. Injunct and defund his amnesty efforts. Sit on ANY appointments for two years. Impeach him if necessary and bribe a few Dem senators to vote yes for it. We don’t need the Democrat total contingent for any of it.
I’ve read this article several times. Not much context. What exactly is Reid implying? I’m coming around to reading it as a threat. Perhaps he is trying to scare the RINO herd over the spending bill..??..
Amazing how leopards change their spots when a gun is pointed at them. INDEED it IS TIME for retribution but unfortunately, the rhinos have kept McConnell and Bohner as their leaders. Once again Reid will get what he and the demodummies want due to their non-existent "legislating" experience.
I understand the House sent some 370 bills to the Senate, all to be stopped and NONE reached the POTUS desk all due to this little weasel. What a pizza chit.
You’re right, Harry. It’s not time to get even, it’s time to get way ahead. Because in 6 years you and your pile of puke party have done 20 years worth of damage. It’s “beat the crap out of you and your miserable bully doctrine so that next time America makes to asinine mistake of experimenting with socialism, maybe we will have made some progress.”
Like hell it isn’t.
(But with ‘ol weepy B it is.)
I am stealing all of that line, including the pepperoni! LOL!
“there is no such thing as a good registered Democrat!”
Yep, you can’t even count on the dead ones to stop voting.
Harry (the booty) Reid sold his soul a long time ago. He’s just a sad fool on display. Pitiful really-— he’s a walking, clinging ‘title’ with an empty, dry desert inside. What is a man without true respect and honor? There is he.
Let’s just hope the RINOs show some spunk and bury the RATS. Unfortunately one has doubts.
The 59 votes for keystone says all you need to know about Harry Reid cooperating with Republicans
And Reid knows it.

“We’re not for stalling”
Wow, I can’t believe he wasn’t struck by lightning when he said that.
I am all about stalling. The more our Government legislates them more the people get screwed.
Yeah, I thought somebody would. Help yourself to another slice. :)
The democrats have copies of Romney's and the Koch brothers' tax returns.
The "President" simply ordered them from the IRS.

If Reid calls fixing Dem screwups revenge or payback then it’s too bad. It just points out why they lost the election.
Harry, it would be irresponsible to get even.....when we have such a clear opportunity to GET ONE BETTER!
Harry’s been out in the sun too long——the LAST THING 2014 midterm voters were thinking as they cast their votes was-—”we want Republicans to work w/ Harry Reid.”
