Reid’s Super-Com picks: Tax lovers and earmarkers

‘Reid Leads Senate as Compromise Avoids Fiscal Catastrophe’—That’s the laughable title of a video parked at Sen. Harry Reid’s official government website.

Debt fight proves U.S. needs more conservatives in the Senate

Sen. Harry Reid is still preening for the cameras, with legacy media only too eager to promote  his obstruction of anything the Republican controlled US House of Representatives puts forth. Reid sounds like a broken record, telling House conservatives to “compromise.”

The last thing on Reid’s mind is compromise. He’s still having trouble getting over losing control of the House in November, 2010. Of course, what legacy media omits from every narrative is that this problem was created by Democrats—they set no budget for more than 800 days, they voted down President Barack Obama’s budget and they could’ve set whatever debt ceiling their spendthrift hearts desired.

After all, Democrats  had absolute control of the federal government from the moment they won Congress in November, 2006 until November 2010, and Obama has been in the White House for three years.

Reid fabricates a no-tax-in-my-plan story for Democrat friendly media.
