Thank you.

the first comment says it all "he is an idiot"

I don't live under a rock, kypsul.
There are hundreds of posts on this site. Plenty of posts about the legislators you name. This is an article about Reid, however. As well, some comments are made by people who live(d) in Nevada. Again, fully capable individuals for discerning the actions of a very public figure. The posts in the Gulch come from all sorts of sources. Often the same issue is posted from different sources so readers can compare information. Objectivists produce in this gulch but are not exclusive. The only criteria for participating is you've come in because you've seen or are interested in seeing the movies. Many have not read AS until they've been here awhile. Your assumption "...the lopsided, media influenced group..." is incorrect, in my opinion. Most in here are well read. Check your premise

But you sure know how to spell it. Forgive me for my errant typo. I'm not arguing in favor of or against Reid, I am simply pointing out the lopsided, media influenced group think that doesn't actually back up their immediate judgement with any element of statistical proof. Are you of the opinion that Boehner, McConnell, Cantor, and the other nay say conservatives are in some way proving better in their actions? My argument here has more to do with the comments here being quite the antithesis to an Objective philosophy. Our government is clearly a disaster right now, but to pin the blame entirely on one person only proves to me that many of us still have our heads stuck in the sand.

What are you talking about? The Senate Majority leader has just issued a blanket statement claiming that anyone who claims to have been adversely affected by Obamacare is lying. Are you okay with that statement? What does Bill O'Reilly have to do with it?

it's O'Reilly and I don't watch it. You don't think a public figure like Harry Reid, whose actions are in the open for the most part can be found lacking by individuals? Individuals in a virtual gulch?

Didn't know the mob hired him. Evidently, the wise guys weren't so "wise."

Just about all of the people who populate all levels of government are empty suits. If you know of any exceptions, please let the Gulch know of them.

I don't know, Harry may be a natural idiot.

Wow! That is crazy. Harry needs to go.

A business associate of mine is black and her husband is white. They lived in Carson City. They were being threatened by the Klan. The cops couldn't do anything and neither could the FBI because nothing had yet been done to them. She knew what I was and thought I could help. I was at a meeting and Reid was there, so I told him the story and asked if he could help. He said call the FBI. Ass hat!!

Do tell.

Well he was a mob lawyer so we should trust everything he says, right? He's an idiot. I've talked with him in person and even his security guys had trouble keeping a straight face with the answer he gave.

This is a person in a position of considerable power. Its frightening.
