Harry Reid = Horse's Rear

I don't mean to offend the many fine, upstanding equines in America, but Senate Majority Leader "Brain-dead" Harry Reid certainly is about as sharp and proactive as a horse's patootie, and produces just about the same thing.

The Senate hasn't produced a budget in the last three years. About the only times the Senate has been allowed to vote -- by its daunted leader, ol' Brain-dead -- it was only to reject the rather ridiculous efforts of the Comrade to formulate a budget. Apparently the Comrade's budgets stunk so bad, not even his fellow democrats would support them.

So now Brain-dead has determined that the Senate will fail to do its budget again this year. After all, 23 senators are up for re-election this November. Brain-dead doesn't want to compel them make any decisions that would jeopardize their shot at keeping their jobs.

Actually, I think most senators -- excluding Dick(head) Durbin, who fails to represent me in Illinois, and a few others, probably are capable of much more than they're doing. If they did any work, they might actually be able to get America going again. 'Course, they'd have to part ways with the Comrade's stupid policies, and ol' Brain-dead doesn't want to see that happen. It would be so embarrassing, wouldn't it?

Who elected Brain-dead to any position of responsiblity? Most particularly, in the Senate? Better question: what the hell does this blockhead do all day?

You know, U.S. Senators make about $180,000.00 a year. Plus they get tons of perks and a cornucopia of health insurance benefits and all that stuff.

For what? I mean, is anyone really interested in keeping these folks alive and healthy?

By contrast, the U.S. House of Representatives have been busy, busy, busy, conducting all kinds of hearings, devising pretty good legislation (in some cases) based on sound reasoning (in some cases) and demonstrating a sincere (if sometimes misguided) concern for the nation. The House has even managed to form coalitions "across the aisle" of both dems and Republicans -- sort of a miracle.

However, if the House passes something, it then must go through the Senate, and there any legislation suffers an untimely death -- Brain-dead won't allow anything to be heard or debated or considered in the Senate. Under guidance of Brain-dead Harry Reid, the Senate has become a legislative morgue. All those hopes and efforts from the House pigeonholed on ice in some dusty Senate shelf.

Apparently the Tea Party, and its many and varied parts, are focusing on congressional races in the upcoming election. Good idea. It's about time to sweep these blockheads out of office.

Save the Republic
