I'm not sure if it's dementia or sociopathy. From the article: “The Republicans in the United States Senate do not represent mainstream Republicans in this country. They are so far to the right ... we need your help to elect Democrats,” Reid said. *Since when does Reid care about Republicans? And if I don't recall the government at all representing America here a few weeks ago with the health care bill....*
Then, he said, “along comes George Bush,” creating a war that cost the country $1 trillion in borrowed money. *And how much has the U.S. borrowed under Obama? The largest deficit in American history EVER greater than the deficits of all other presidents combined in less than a year???*
That, along with a slew of other mistakes, left the country in bad shape, Reid said. *Like electing Obama and everything Reid has done in office*
“That was the hole he dug for us and President Obama,” he said. *I thought he was going to dig us out*
During the last two months alone of the Bush administration, 1.5 million jobs were lost, he said. *That's nothing compared to the 10% unemployment since Obama's been in office for the past year and a half*
Reid also talked about some of the legislation that has been passed — such as job creation — to help the economy recover.
“We passed a recovery package … has it done enough? Of course not,” he said, but many critical issues are now being addressed such as flaws in the credit card industry and mortgage fraud.
“We're doing everything we can to get out of this,” he said. *By digging us deeper?*
Is America going to fall for this again??????
