“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Harry Reid weakly justifies once again, NPR funding

Harry Reid regularly revalidates the fact that he's an idiot. The context this time is Lisa Murkowski's recognition of the Iditerod racers and Reid takes the opportunity to comment on the defunding of NPR vote in the House....

From FoxNews -- “They had a really, really good piece on public radio before the start of the race,” explained Reid. "I hesitate saying this because I know I will probably get in trouble, but this is a good reason why the House vote was bad today to defund public radio."

Seriously, Reid's personal enjoyment of the dog story justifies the hundreds of millions taken from taxpayers to pay for it? The only people dumber than Reid himself are the Nevada voters who keep electing him.


I hope you Nevada voters are proud of your shameful, vulgar Senator.

Remember he said the thousands of people attending the Cowboy Poetry Festival in Nevada "would not exist" if the festival lost federal funding. Mass suicide?

Yeah, I don't know what that curious statement meant.

Maybe he meant they wouldn't exist as NPR listeners. By that logic, NFL fans won't exist as ticket-buyers if there is no season this year.....no shit, sherlock!

The funny thing is the Cowboy Poetry Festival said that federal funding was not critical to their existence - much less their patrons' existence.
