Time Text
All right, we've completed our research.
We can't find very much time a dingy Harry had to be in private practice in a law two years at most.
And we know he's involved in a bunch of shady land deals.
And he claims that all that money he made as a lawyer, he invested, that's what got him rich.
But yet, Sharon Angle wants to invest a portion of her social security money in the stock market, and he calls that extreme.
Yet that's what he did.
He admitted I did a very good job at investing.
I've been on a fixed income since I got to Washington.
I lived off what I made in the private sector.
Well, we've looked.
Well, you shall hear the fruits of our labors on Friday.
Live from the Southern Command in sunny South Florida, it's open line Friday.
And we're back at 800-282-2882, El Rushmore behind the Gordon EIB microphone.
Dingy Harry said, Sharon Angle said, how did you get so rich?
You left Searchlight Nevada.
You didn't have much money.
How'd you get so rich in the Senate?
He said, everybody knows I was a very successful attorney.
And I invested my money while I lived in a fixed income out there.
All right, so you look at the resume and say, when was Reed a successful lawyer?
He graduated George Washington University Law School with a JD while working for the U.S. Capitol Police.
He returned to Nevada after law school.
He served as Henderson City Attorney.
It's Vegas, Henderson City Attorney before being elected to the Nevada Assembly in 1968.
Now, serving as Henderson City Attorney is not private sector attorney work.
But Henderson City Attorney.
And wait, it gets better.
In 1970, at age 30, Dingy Harry was chosen by O'Callaghan as his running mate for lieutenant governor of Nevada.
Reed and his mentor O'Callaghan, maybe it's O'Callaghan, won the race.
Dingy Harry served as lieutenant governor until 1974.
Now, what I don't know is, could he have served at private practice as a lawyer while serving in state government?
There's no mention of it in the resume, but lieutenant governor, could he have served as a lawyer?
But it gets better.
He ran for the U.S. Senate, U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Alan Bible in 1974.
He lost.
In 1975, Dingy Harry ran for mayor of Las Vegas and lost again.
He then served as chairman of the Nevada Gaming Commission from 1977 to 1981.
After serving as the chairman of the Nevada Gaming Commission 77-81, there's a reason for all this, folks.
He's sitting hanging there with me here.
He then ran for the U.S. House and won.
He served two terms from 83 to 87.
In 1987, he was elected to the U.S. Senate, where he's been ever since.
So when was he a successful lawyer in all this?
Because he said, I think everybody knows I've been a very successful lawyer.
Also ran the numbers.
He said that he put his five kids through 100 semesters.
I ran the numbers on that.
If you do it, you come out.
There's two semesters in a year, right?
Or is it four?
Two semesters in a year.
Three if you do summer school, but it's two semesters.
Not four.
That's right.
In high school, we had quarters.
We had the first quarter, second quarter equal to the first semester.
Okay, so you have two semesters a year times four years of college times five kids is 40 semesters.
So some of his kids spent, well, it could be great school, eight years in college, could be, but still, still, I mean, this isn't cheap.
Now, where's this private lawyer stuff?
We do have this Nevada Gaming Commission chairmanship, 1977, 1981.
The only bio of Dingy Harry we have found that mentions he was ever in private practice is this one.
Police officer, U.S. Capitol, circa 1961 to 63.
City Attorney, Henderson, Nevada, 64 to 66.
Nevada State Assemblyman, 69-70.
Nevada Lieutenant Governor, 70-74.
Ran for U.S. Senate but lost 74.
Chairman, Nevada Gaming Commission, 77-81.
Attorney, private practice, 81-83.
Ah, two big years.
Attorney, private practice, 81 to 83.
Congressman, 83 to 87.
U.S. Senator, 87-present.
Harry Reid, biography, life, family, children, parents, story, wife, school, mother, young, newsmaker accumulation.
So basically, he was an attorney in private practice 1981 to 83.
How much money can you make as an attorney in two years?
And he was running for office.
That sometimes can take six months to a year.
Reed's official Senate website says this about that period.
In 77, he was appointed chairman, Nevada Gaming Commission, where for five years he made headlines with his legendary, unrelenting fight to clean up Nevada's gaming industry.
But he didn't talk about that.
He said, everybody knows I was a successful lawyer.
And then I invested well.
And I live on a fixed income.
He returned to private law practice for a few years and won the first of two terms in the U.S. House of Representatives.
I mean, that's it.
So where can it be shown?
He was some great lawyer who earned millions of dollars in the legal process.
Where can it be shown?
But he said this is how he got rich.
So played back-to-back, which is it?
Is he the only one smart enough to get rich and provide for himself off the profits of evil corporations in the stock market?
That's what he said he did.
Or do you have to be a powerful senator who gets insider deals to make a profit?
Sherrod Angles will want to privatize Social Security.
They can't.
It's too risky.
But that's how he got rich.
So who, ladies and gentlemen, the final analysis here, who is more knowledgeable and coherent?
Sharon Angle or Harry Reid?
Christine O'Donnell or Harry Reid?
Sarah Palin or Harry Reid?
Harry Reid's a fool.
Harry Reid is a tool.
Harry Reid makes no sense.
But will not be treated with the disdain any of these ladies are treated with.
He will not be shown any of the disrespect that they are treated to.
He will not be insulted or impugned the way they are.
And yet he's the tool.
He's the fool.
He's the liar who cannot tell the truth about the source of his wealth.
I mean, you search the biography here and you simply can't find it.
Rish, why are you spending so much time?
I'm spending so much time on this because we're asked to look the other way so many times when it comes to Democrats because they supposedly care about the little guy.
We're supposed to look the other way when a woman dies being driven off a bridge.
We're supposed to look the other way when all this kind of stuff happens.
We're supposed to look the other way when our private sector is being destroyed.
We're supposed to look the other way when nobody can find a job, when nobody has a prospect of finding a job.
We're supposed to look the other way when our health care system is being destroyed.
We're supposed to look the other way while the chance for economic growth and prosperity is increasing.
We're supposed to look the other way when all of the things that have defined this country's greatness are under assault.
We're supposed to look the other way when the president of the United States talks about how people go tribal when things get tough economically, when he's defining the term going tribal.
We're supposed to look the other way when the Democrats and their buddies in the media laugh at, impugn, and make fun of the people and the traditions and the institutions that have made this country great.
We're supposed to look the other way and pay no attention to it.
Why?
Because they supposedly have more compassion.
Because they supposedly care about the little guy.
Because they're not extremists.
Because they are for killing babies in the womb as a civil right.
That's why we're supposed to look the other way and put all of our faith and hope in them.
And people are fed up with looking the other way.
So I'm not looking the other way.
If Harry Reid says everybody knows I was a successful lawyer, I didn't know that.
I didn't know he served in the Nevada Gaming Commission.
I didn't know anything what I just told you other than his U.S. Senate service until I looked it up.
I didn't know that Harry Reid served as a private sector lawyer for a couple of years, made enough money to get rich and live off a fixed income and get involved in phony, fraudulent land deals.
I didn't know any of that.
Now we're supposed to look the other way at all of this.
We're supposed to, that's not important.
Instead, we're supposed to be scared of people like Robert Bork.
We're supposed to be afraid of people like Clarence Thomas.
We're supposed to be afraid of people like me.
We're supposed to be afraid of people like Sarah Palin.
We're supposed to be afraid of people like Christine O'Donnell and Sharon Angle and Carl Palladino.
We're supposed to look the other way while these best and brightest and most caring and most compassionate people literally destroy the opportunity for other people in this country to achieve their own dreams and prosperity and wealth.
And we're simply tired of looking the other way.
Instead of being distracted and looking the other way, we're going to look at them.
Who are these people?
Back in just a second.
All right, we're going to get to your phone calls here in just a second, but just a couple things first.
Associated Press, October 2006, John Solomon and Kathleen Hennessy, the authors of the piece, Senate Democrat leader Dingy Harry collected a $1.1 million windfall on a Las Vegas land sale, even though he hadn't personally owned the property for three years, according to property deeds.
In the process, Harry Reid did not disclose to Congress an earlier sale in which he transferred his land to a company created by a friend and took a financial stake in that company, according to records and interviews.
The senator didn't disclose the sale on his annual public ethics report or tell Congress he had any stake in this company.
He continued to report to Congress he personally owned the land, which he didn't.
But he got, look at, he collected a $1.1 million windfall on the sale of some property in Vegas, even though he hadn't owned it in three years.
That's how you get rich in the U.S. Senate.
You get paid off.
The complex dealings allowed Reed to transfer ownership, legal liability, and some tax consequences to Brown's company, his buddy, without public knowledge, but still collect a seven-figure payoff nearly three years later.
When the AP reporters called Harry Reid, he hung up the phone when questioned about the deal.
I want to go back to audio soundbite number 11 from the dingy Harry and Sharon Angle debate in which he takes it to the insurance companies.
Insurance companies don't do things out of the goodness of their hearts.
They do it out of a profit motive and they have almost destroyed our economy.
Stop the tape.
Insurance companies do not do things out of the goodness of their hearts.
They do it all for the profit motive and they have almost destroyed our economy.
Mark Hemingway, National Review Online.
60 Minutes did a great report on Medicare fraud this past Sunday.
Among other things, the report noted that Medicare fraud was now more common in South Florida than the drug trade.
And then there's this.
Medicare fraud amounts to $60 billion a year.
That's a heck of a lot of money.
In fact, Medicare losses, or Medicare loses, seven times as much money in fraud every year than the combined profits of the 14 health insurance companies on the Fortune 500 list.
And yet here's Harry Reid getting paid off on a land deal in Vegas, impugning insurance companies for seeking profit and almost destroying our economy when he and his buddies in the Democrat Party are in the process of doing just that.
And the systems they devise for our health care, Medicare, Medicaid, there's so much fraud, and who knows who's getting paid off on this.
So much fraud that it dwarfs the combined profit of 14 health insurance companies in the Fortune 500.
This is just an out-and-out, outrageous, despicable lie and is typical of what we've been getting of the Democrat Party for as long as I've been listening to him speak.
Government great, government God.
Profits destroy.
Profits destroy economy.
Profits destroy country.
Companies, corporations want profits.
They don't care about people.
Only Democrats care about people.
Only Democrats care about the little body, unless you're unborn in the womb and then you're on your own.
Only Democrats care about people.
Everybody else, big oil, big pharma, big insurance, big retail, they're killing people.
Big government's saving them.
Big government is defrauding people left and right, failing to produce anything on what promises.
This is stunning.
Medicare loses seven times as much money in fraud every year as the combined profits of the 14 health insurance companies.
We're told that these people in charge of this kind of incompetence and loss or whatever else it is, fraud, are now going to be in charge of one-sixth of the U.S. economy.
We're supposed to look the other way because these people care about us, and Republicans are the extremists and the kooks.
All right, to the phones, we're going to start here in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
Joy, I'm really glad you waited.
I appreciate your patience.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Thank you so much, Rush, and God bless you for all your efforts.
Thank you.
I'm graded here by a paradox that I've hoped that you would address for all our ratification here.
The Bush tax cuts sunset because it's furtively claimed that they're costly.
We all know that tax cuts increase government revenues.
Right.
Whereas, on the other hand, we know that there were presidential meetings and coercion of the CBO to withhold information and to cook the books here.
And even Obama himself said regarding the health care, we all knew it wasn't going to be free to insure 30 million more people.
Well, given that, shouldn't the new Congress use that obvious fraud to invalidate the program in its entirety, just in case the Attorney Generals discover some emanation of the Constitution that says, yes, you can.
Well, you're providing a pathway.
I mean, you are suggesting a course of action.
And the answer to your question, of course they could.
The question becomes, will they?
Well, I think if more of us are aware of it and insist that they do, they'll have to.
Well, we would hope so.
It certainly was.
It certainly worked out that way in immigration.
They heard us on immigration.
It didn't work on health care reform.
60% of the American people are opposed to it.
It's the Democrats that are the problem here.
Now, the Republicans, you're going to have a bunch of different varieties here.
Some Republicans are not going to want to do this.
I've heard from them that they're not going to have that much power.
They're not going to control a government.
They're not going to be able to repeal or roll any of this stuff back because they won't be able to override a presidential veto.
Others are going to be hell-bent to conduct investigations with subpoena power.
You're going to have a variety of Republican courses of action here take place.
And I think these elections turn out as we all think.
That alone will be a single message, a signal message as to how they should go.
But they are going to be observed closer than they ever have been.
Because a lot of Republicans, whether they know it or not, are going to be elected with the idea they're going to stop this, that this needs to be stopped, that our country's being destroyed, and they're the ones that have, that are on the front lines.
They have to do it legislatively.
You could say, yeah, she's, if we don't provide the heat, they won't see the light.
But it ought to be a subject for hearings.
Why did the CBO lie about this?
There's so many lies about this whole thing.
It ought to be.
There ought to be hearings on this starting in day one in January when they're sworn in.
We've already got the federal judge that said these 20 states healthcare lawsuit can move forward on the Commerce Clause portion of it.
It's all lining up in our way.
Hi, welcome back.
Great to have you, Rush Limbaugh, Open Line Friday.
Harry Reid, by the way, explained he failed to report that million-dollar land deal because of clerical errors.
And that explanation was good enough for our watchdog media never bothered to raise the subject again.
And that's one of these no-lose deals.
Senators are made aware of great opportunities.
Didn't you, Harry?
Give us a million bucks.
We'll put it over here.
It's guaranteed to win one way or the other.
Either get your money back with a couple interest points or the land goes nuts and it's even more than what you put in.
But there's no way you're going to lose it.
Does it?
Three years later, land is sold.
He's not even on the deed.
Gets $1.1 million out of it.
Things that you and I are never even advised of, things that you and I are not even told of.
Because nothing we can do for the people that Harry Reid can do for people.
Federal judge ruled yesterday a lawsuit brought by 20 states challenging the health care overhaul law can move forward.
This is Judge Roger Vinson, U.S. District Court, Northern District of Florida.
He rejected the Obama administration's request to throw out the case.
That was expected.
During oral arguments over the government's motion to dismiss last month, Vinson had indicated that he was likely to rule at least partly in the state's favor.
Essentially, he said the mandate is a penalty.
The requirement that you buy health insurance or pay a fine to your regime said, no, no, no, it's a tax.
It's in our power to levy taxes.
Judge, it's not a tax.
And as such, it's outside constitutional powers of taxation.
There ought to be an investigation.
Just our last caller said the CBO, you know, everybody knew that they were cooking the books to keep that number under $1 trillion to get Democrats vote for it.
John in Atlanta, Open Line Friday.
I'm going to do my best to get a lot of phone calls in here since I had diarrhea of the mouth for the first hour and a half.
Great to have you on the program, John.
Hi.
Thank you, Rush.
It's my honor to talk to you.
In listening to your program over the last hour, I just wanted to call and say you are on fire.
When you send the tapes of today's program to the archives of the Museum of Broadcasting, this dingy Harry rant you just did will be among the all-star segments.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you for all that you do.
Very much.
I appreciate that.
Very nice.
Cincinnati, John, you're next.
Open Line Friday.
Hi.
Hi, Rush.
Just a comment about Harry Reed's comment about being that he said that General Petraeus is his friend.
He's my friend.
Well, General Petraeus, that's a weasly answer or comment because General Petraeus is not going to say yes or no to that.
Obviously he's neutral.
He's not going to make any comment.
So for him to say that is ludicrous.
Number one.
Well, of course.
Look, if dingy Harry were talking about me on the floor of the Senate, he would say, and my good friend Rush Limboy.
It's just the way these phony baloney plastic banana good time rock and rollers talk.
That's politics 101.
My good friend on the other side of the aisle, who I really would like to see dead.
Al Gore called me a distinguished American at one point.
So you're right.
But you're also right that Petraeus can't do anything about it.
He probably doesn't care.
He's moved on.
Right, right.
Comment about his income.
He's had a fixed income.
How do you, are you there?
Yeah.
How do you make go From zero dollars or very low net worth to millions without earning money.
He said he made good investments while you're earning money.
That's a very low blow.
Why would you dare ask that question?
Ah, yeah, right.
Why should I?
Because I'm logical, and these people aren't.
And anybody that would actually believe this stuff aren't very thinking people.
I don't think too many people believe it.
I think some people don't care about it, and some people do.
But I don't think too many people believe that Harry Reid was in law practice two years back in the early 80s and made enough money to be living off to this day and send his five kids to 100 semesters of college and somehow find a way to make $1.1 million on a piece of property he didn't own.
A lot of people are not concerned.
They are aware of that.
Some people don't care.
He's a Democrat and he's a good person.
The Liberal is a good person.
He cares about people.
Cares about the homeless, cares about the poor.
Of course, doesn't, but I mean, this is the reputation.
Just a lot of people don't care.
In fact, more power to him.
Just the way the political dice get rolled in the country.
Here is Mike in Falls Church, Virginia.
Great to have you on the program, sir.
Oh, hi, Rush.
Mega Ditto's Mike of Falls Church, Virginia.
Just by the call, I work for a car dealership here in Falls Church.
I can't say the name of it, but it's owned by a prominent Democrat.
But they recently had their health care people in.
Wait a second.
Wait just a minute.
No, you're intriguing me here.
You're intriguing the audience.
You can't mention the dealership you work for owned by a prominent Democrat.
Well, yeah, because I got to keep my job.
But we would all know the Democrat when you say prominent, we'd all know who the owner of the company is?
You could probably figure it out.
Is it the dealership or the manufacturer?
No, it's the dealership.
The dealership?
The owner of the dealership?
Ah, okay.
And I can tell you off the air, but I got to keep my job.
I understand.
I understand totally.
Earth is America, and you got to stay alive.
Understand.
But we've been recently, they've had the health care people in, and they're making a bunch of things mandatory now.
They're removing, in order to lower the rates, the health people told them that they can do that if they remove the Coke and candy machines from the building, ban smoking from the premises, and they make it a smoke-free bunker, I guess.
And because Hitler had one.
So you can lower your health insurance if the Coke machine's out, the candy machines out, and ban smoking from the premises.
Ban smoking from the premises.
The people that smoke there have to go to a mandatory meeting this coming week, a smoking cessation meeting that's going to be put together by that health insurance company.
Wait a second.
Yep.
People who smoke, even not at work.
Correct.
Have to go to a cessation meeting.
Smoking cessation meeting that's been made mandatory.
Or else what?
Well, or else, if you don't go to it, you're going to lose your job.
And we don't know what's going to happen in the middle.
But what?
Okay.
They smoke, but not at the workplace because they're not permitted.
Correct.
They have to go to the cessation meeting.
If they don't, they lose their job.
Is the insurance company threatening to raise rates on your owner of the dealership?
Well, they've told them that this is the way that they can reduce rates or keep them down.
And that's the purpose of these decisions.
They have all these health fares, too, where we have to go.
We're not required to do this, but they encourage us to go in and have our, which is okay in one way, but going and have your blood pressure and blood sugar tested and all that.
But that's for the health insurance company, too.
Right.
They haven't made that absolutely mandatory.
But they've also had a series of random drug tests where, you know, you never know, every couple of weeks you get hauled in and you have to urinate in front of a stranger.
Yeah.
In order to keep your job.
The cessation meeting, now, nobody knows what's going to happen in this meeting.
But the rumor is, and so far every rumor's come true.
The rumor is, is that they're going to test us for nicotine.
Apparently, some hospital is doing this someplace.
And now I don't know that for a fact, but I know I have to go to this meeting.
And so I've been identified as a smoker.
Wait a minute now.
You do not have to smoke to ingest nicotine.
That would be true.
No, you don't.
You can get nicorette.
You can put a patch on.
You can drink tea for crying out loud.
Nicotine's in tea.
Yeah, I can shoot the picnic.
Oh, not, that's caffeine.
I'm sorry.
You can shoot it up.
You get one of my e-cigarettes here.
Yeah.
I mean, you don't have to smoke to have nicotine in your system.
My God, a nicotine test at a car dealership?
That I don't know to be true yet.
Okay.
It's just rumored.
That's the rumor, but every rumor has come true so far.
And I do know that I have to go to this meeting.
It's mandatory.
And it'd be a mandatory meeting.
If you don't go, you're subject to something as to whether I'd get fired for not going to it or not.
I don't know.
There's a Volvo dealership.
We'll take a break.
Be right back.
Don't go.
I know who it is.
Okay, we got a new polling result in from Ras Newsen in Delaware.
Before the debate, what was Christine O'Donnell down?
Was it 20, 20, a little bit higher than that?
19 or 20, whatever it was.
She's now down 11.
Since the debate, she's now down by 11.
This nearly cut that gap in half.
And that's why Obama and Bite Me are in Delaware today.
And it's not because.
I had to get a biggest kick out of this.
They actually said Obama's going in there because, oh, it's a great opportunity to show what a bunch of idiots all Republicans are.
They're going in there to make fun of Christine O'Donnell.
And they're going in there.
It's not going to waste this time doing that.
They're going in there because if they lose this, if they lose this, it's not only Obama with a bunch of egg on, his half the Republican Party, too.
And about three-fourths, three-quarters of the so-called conservative media in Washington with egg on its face.
If Christine O'Donnell loses this, ladies and gentlemen, there is a website.
I found it here, Nicotine Drug Test Solutions.
The website is IpassedMyDrugTest.com.
And this website has ways in which you can beat the system.
And they sell a product.
Obviously, it's a very entrepreneurial private sector concern.
Kids are out of school today.
Dawn, the kids knew this before I learned about it.
Dawn's worried that I shouldn't discuss this because the kids in the audience are going to learn about this.
And my point is, they've known it for years.
I'm just hearing about it.
There are two different nicotine cleanses that you can buy, the nicotine cleanse and the nicotine cleanse extreme.
One is for $59.95, the other $89.95.
So if you work for Don Byer Volvo in Falls Church and you're worried about nicotine tests coming, there's a website.
Don Buyer is a former lieutenant governor there, and he's now ambassador to Switzerland and Liechtenstein, or Liechtenstein.
He raised more than half a million dollars for Obama.
So now he's the ambassador over there.
He's Lichtenstein.
It's exactly what that's one of the primary reasons there is a Lichtenstein.
You park money there that you don't want people to know about.
So, Ellen in Rocky River, Ohio, welcome to the EIB Network.
Great to have you here.
Hi, Rush.
Thanks for taking my call.
Yes, ma'am.
You know, I was wondering if you had seen or knew anything about there was a debate between Jim McGovern.
He is the Democrat, the sitting Democrat congressman from the 3rd Congressional District in Massachusetts.
He's running against a Marty Lamb.
Well, they were.
Oh, yeah, this is the guy that said the Constitution's wrong.
Yeah, you know, I was scrolling through the Internet and I saw it, and I thought, well, it was worth watching.
And when I first heard it and saw it, I thought I must not have heard it correctly.
So I did the replay, and indeed I did hear it correctly.
So I didn't know whether to be more appalled, angry, disappointed.
So I called his D.C. office yesterday and got right through, and the person who answered the phone was quick to tell me that he had misspoken.
And, you know, I didn't want to sound snide or contentious, but I felt compelled to correct her.
What I said was: if by misspeaking you mean it slipped out, then I would agree.
If you're going to define misspeaking as that's not what he meant, I would profoundly disagree with you.
It would appear to me that he and his ilk see the Constitution as a huge impediment to them to advance their agenda.
They've done a fine job, you know, restricting free speech and political correctness.
I had the soundbite yesterday, and I didn't get to a fouler mood today.
I didn't get to it yesterday.
And one of the reasons, not just because I was in a foul mood.
Democrats, all Democrats think the Constitution is wrong.
I mean, that's their premise.
That's why they appoint the judges they appoint to rewrite the damn thing under the auspices of law.
I mean, Obama used to teach that the Constitution is wrong.
He's a constitutional law lecturer.
I mean, Obama is on record.
The Bill of Rights, screwy.
We need a new Bill of Rights.
FDR got the ball rolling on that.
We need a bill because the Constitution doesn't spell out what government can do for people or to people.
I mean, Democrats don't like it.
This guy, you were right.
He let the cat out.
He misspoke, meaning, uh-oh, God, God.
I didn't want people to know we think that.
Can I just make one or two quick comments about Sharon Engel and the health care?
I'm a health care professional.
I'm a nurse manager, so I certainly have a vested interest as a consumer of health care and also somebody who works in the industry.
I think she was quite articulate.
I watched the debate between her and Harry Reid.
I did the YouTube this morning.
I'm home doing homework.
But at any rate, what she was saying, and I thought it was right on, there should be no mandates.
If an individual consumer wants some type of coverage that would cover preventative care, he or she should be able to purchase that in the marketplace.
If, however, they don't want a policy that covers, you know, colonoscopies or mammograms or whatever, that too should be a choice.
So I thought that she handled it very well.
I really thought she did mop up the floor with Harry Reid.
I mean, no question about it.
They think that at Newsweek magazine.
They think that at the New Republic.
They think that at the Las Vegas newspapers.
There's no question.
She was far more knowledgeable and coherent than Harry Reid was.
And Christine O'Donnell was more knowledgeable and coherent than at Bearded Marxist clown.
What's his name?
I can never remember.
Koons.
That's right, Coons.
I think both of these women mopped the floor with these guys.
Harry Reid is a fool.
Coons is too.
All liberals are fools, and they make no sense.
The difference is they are not treated with disdain.
They are not insulted, nor are they impugned the way Sharon Angle is and has been.
Sarah Palin is and has been, or Christine O'Donnell is and has been.
But again, Christine O'Donnell, after that debate, cut the lead in half in the Ras Musin poll 20 to 11.
And that's why Obama and Bite Me are in there today.
Charlie Cook, the gospel inside the Beltway pollster analyst guy, the Cook political report out with its latest outlook for the House, predicting a tsunami.
This is some hotline on call yesterday.
After surveying the state of several key toss-up races, Charlie Cook concludes the chances of a Republican landslide are rising.
In the translation of landslide, Republicans likely to win more than 50 seats in the House.
Likely to win.
Now, if they're saying that, it's more like 65.
We'll be back.
Don't go away.
Okay, here is a simple question here.
Who is the more stupid?
Christine O'Donnell, who could not cite a recent Supreme Court decision with which she disagreed, or McGovern, Jim McGovern got Obama, who disagree with a Supreme Court decision they don't even understand.
And that's the Citizens United case.
