Typical insulting Reid:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Friday that John Roberts misled the Senate during his confirmation hearings by pretending to be a moderate — and that the United States is now “stuck” with him as chief justice.
“Roberts didn’t tell us the truth. At least Alito told us who he was,” Reid said, referring to Samuel Alito, the second Supreme Court justice nominated by President George W. Bush. “But we’re stuck with those two young men, and we’ll try to change by having some moderates in the federal courts system as time goes on — I think that will happen.”
You’ll notice he didn’t specify any statement of Roberts that was a lie.
And if he was fooled by Roberts, how come he voted against his nomination?

This is just thuggery. This type of politics is shameful and not becoming of America. The Dems have fallen so far away for American values that they are un-American. They are 180 degrees off from reality.

Sooner or later actual Americans are going to have to throw thugs like Reid out of office. And I don’t mean by replacing him with a RINO.
No surprise Reid has earned the nickname of Dirty Harry. This guy is a real loser as is the rest of this Democrat Senators!!
That’s rich…Harry Reid probably tells more lies every day than John Roberts tells in several years.
Dems have little to offer other than hate, envy, elitism, and arrogance.
Why isn’t Reid calling Obama a liar for the same reasons? Lots of republicans and moderates are upset that Obama acted like a centrist during the Presidential campaign but since inauguration day has revealed himself to be way at the left end of the spectrum.
C’mon Harry; let it ALL out!

Bcause Reid is a FOOL. And an embarrassment to this nation.
Once upon a time we had statemen who were concerned About America. Now we have shrill politicians that are only concerned with feathering their nests. These last few months have had me doubting whether we will ever be able to get this nation back from these incompetent fools that are in Washington….and from the incompetent voters who vote for a personality rather than a good moral person.
The new term for the Global War on Terror is “Overseas Contingency Operation”
The new term for terrorism is “Man-Caused Disasters”
The new definition of a moderate is someone who calls you “comrade” and sings hymns to “the collective” while saluting a giant picture of the Messiah.
The error of Obama begins…
Little commie Dirty Harry is likely to lose his next election, Nevada has been hard hit with unemployment, so he likely is going all in in hopes of getting a save by Obama.
The only blocking force left is the SC, why do you think the Democrats are pitching the brush backs these days? Simple —- IT’S INTIMIDATION — Same thing happened with Fascist FDR, when he was pushed back by the SC.
Hmm, someone who lied about being a moderate while seeking a primo job and leaving America stuck with him. Yeah, that did happen… last November.
As ever, Reid is full of crap. That unpatriotic, cowardly, worthless and disgusting liar should be voted out of office in 2010. If he were to be and even if only he were to be, Congress would dramatically be more likable, trustworthy and competent. (Yes, I loathe Reid that much.)
Until Republicans have the balls to call these people the sniveling liars they are, people are going to simply accept what a greasy turd like Harry Reid says at face value. After all, if he isn’t publicly denounced for being a scumbag liar, why not assume he’s telling the truth? They need to use whatever words it takes to get on TV and never look back.
I remember soon after Chief Justice Roberts was confirmed that Jeffrey Toobin — no friend to conservatives — said that some liberals thought that since Roberts was so smart, he must be a “closet moderate” which Toobin shot down, saying Roberts was “very smart and very conservative.”
If any leftwingers thought Roberts was a moderate after his confirmation hearings, the only people misleading them were themselves.
