Harry Reid Hopes The Las Vegas Review-Journal Goes Out of Business

I bet if you're a member of the Insane Liberal Clown Posse (ILCP) you actually believe that Liberal politicians care about American jobs and American workers. If you believe this, you have needle track marks on your arms and between your toes. Because you're no longer drinking the Kool-Aid, you're injecting it intravenously.

CommieCrat Senate Majority Leader (heh...Leader...) Harry ReidTard wishes one of his home state newspapers goes out of business. Las Vegas Review-Journal:

    This newspaper traces its roots to before Las Vegas was Las Vegas.

    We've seen cattle ranches give way to railroads. We chronicled the construction of Hoover Dam. We reported on the first day of legalized gambling. The first hospital. The first school. The first church. We survived the mob, Howard Hughes, the Great Depression, several recessions, two world wars, dozens of news competitors and any number of two-bit politicians who couldn't stand scrutiny, much less criticism.

    [...]

    We're still here doing what we do for the people of Las Vegas and Nevada. So, let me assure you, if we weathered all of that, we can damn sure outlast the bully threats of Sen. Harry Reid.

    On Wednesday, before he addressed a Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce luncheon, Reid joined the chamber's board members for a meet-'n'-greet and a photo. One of the last in line was the Review-Journal's director of advertising, Bob Brown, a hard-working Nevadan who toils every day on behalf of advertisers. He has nothing to do with news coverage or the opinion pages of the Review-Journal.

    Yet, as Bob shook hands with our senior U.S. senator in what should have been nothing but a gracious business setting, Reid said: "I hope you go out of business."

    Later, in his public speech, Reid said he wanted to let everyone know that he wants the Review-Journal to continue selling advertising because the Las Vegas Sun is delivered inside the Review-Journal.

    Such behavior cannot go unchallenged.

    You could call Reid's remark ugly and be right. It certainly was boorish. Asinine? That goes without saying.

    But to fully capture the magnitude of Reid's remark (and to stop him from doing the same thing to others) it must be called what it was -- a full-on threat perpetrated by a bully who has forgotten that he was elected to office to protect Nevadans, not sound like he's shaking them down.

    No citizen should expect this kind of behavior from a U.S. senator. It is certainly not becoming of a man who is the majority leader in the U.S. Senate. And it absolutely is not what anyone would expect from a man who now asks Nevadans to send him back to the Senate for a fifth term.

    If he thinks he can push the state's largest newspaper around by exacting some kind of economic punishment in retaliation for not seeing eye to eye with him on matters of politics, I can only imagine how he pressures businesses and individuals who don't have the wherewithal of the Review-Journal.

    For the sake of all who live and work in Nevada, we can't let this bully behavior pass without calling out Sen. Reid. If he'll try it with the Review-Journal, you can bet that he's tried it with others. So today, we serve notice on Sen. Reid that this creepy tactic will not be tolerated.

    We won't allow you to bully us. And if you try it with anyone else, count on going through us first.

    That's a promise, not a threat.


Petty, Petulant and Cowardly Harry ReidTard.
A yeoman example of Liberal Elitism.

Poor Harry. He can't handle the criticism. He doesn't want to be held accountable or responsible for his actions and his words. He doesn't want to be questioned. What does he do? What does he say? He says he wishes for an organization that employees people - an enterprise that creates jobs and pays taxes and probably sponsors a whole bunch of charitable and non-profit events - goes out of business.


Nope...no Liberal Elitism here. Move along, people...move along.

Reidtard is finished. He knows it and is having a little tantrum already. He should have picked a more liberal state to screw over where the Assholian religion is practiced by the majority. All true card carrying leftards are Assholians and as we all know, Reidtard is an ordained minister in the Church of Assholia, Redeemer of the Ever Loving Rim Job.
 
Boy I hope NV voters have the balls to toss his sagging partisan ass out next year. He is a POS.

Redeemer of the Ever Loving Rim Job! Is that really a church title?? I think so, at least for ReidTard.
