Quote of the day – from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid

Via AP (emphasis added):

Nevada’s senators _ both winning leadership posts in opposite parties _ pledged Wednesday to stay close on issues of mutual interest, but not too close.

“He and I just like each other, and I think we set a good example here in the Senate,” Majority Leader-elect Harry Reid said of colleague John Ensign, who was chosen Wednesday by Senate Republicans to head their campaign fundraising operation.

He’s a Republican, I’m a Democrat, we work together on issues that are important to the state of Nevada. And I wish other people had the same nonaggression pact we have,” Reid told reporters. “It’s not a ‘Brokeback Mountain’ situation,” he added, referring to last year’s film about two gay cowboy lovers.

I certainly hope not.

    Jeezz, what a yutz! Does Reid have no sense, or is he senile?

    I hope Ensign stays far away from Harry Reid.

    Or at least I hope Ensign doesn’t let Reid get behind him.

    You know, for a group that constantly preaches to the rest of us how “tolerant” and “inclusive” they are, the Dems are awfully conflicted about gays.

    Amen Steve. Why not just start in on the ethnic jokes, while you are at it Harry. How is this guy still the leader of the Senate. What a dingleberry. – Lorica
