Dems Roll Out Pork Laden Omnibus Bill, 1,924 Pages, Over $1 Trillion

[Update] Help stop the Omnibus bill that Reid is trying to shove through, go here, scroll to the bottom and start dialing please.

I guess Democrats figure they should get one last hurrah and send a big FU to voters across the country as they do it since Harry Reid, obviously not giving a damn about what voters do and do not want, has unveiled a 1,924-page, $1.1 trillion omnibus bill, chock full of pork.

The omnibus spending bill is reported to cost $1.1 trillion, according to The Hill.

Republican Policy Committee chief Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) said that the attempt to pass the omnibus spending bill ignored the will of the American people.

“The attempt by Democrat leadership to rush through a nearly 2,000-page spending bill in the final days of the lame-duck session ignores the clear will expressed by the voters this past election,” Thune said in a statement. “This bill is loaded up with pork projects and should not get a vote. Congress should listen to the American people and stop this reckless spending.”

The lame duck session of Congress ends on Jan. 3, 2011. The next Congress officially begins later that same day. In that Congress, the division in the House of Representatives is 242 Republicans and 193 Democrats; and in the Senate, 47 Republicans and 53 Democrats.



Malkin reports on U.S. Senator Jim DeMint, chairman of the Senate Steering Committee and member of the Joint Economic Committee's statement after Reid rolled this omnibus bill out:

“President Obama and Democrats have apparently learned nothing from this November’s election. This nearly 2,000-page omnibus filled with thousands of earmarks shows they are still determined to ram through as much big-government spending as they can in this lame duck session. Americans loudly demanded an end to the runaway spending, but Democrats are intent on raiding every taxpayer dollar that they can grab from the Treasury on their way out of power. This bill also funds the unconstitutional Obamacare law that Americans oppose and have asked Congress to fully repeal. Democrats haven’t given Republicans or the American people time to read the bill, but I’ll join with other Republican colleagues to force them to read it on the Senate floor.”


Reid also has other things he wishes to jam down America's throat before the GOP takes control of the House in January and by god he is prepared to force everyone to stay until the very last second to do it.

Forget about going quietly into the night.

Senate Democrats on Tuesday unveiled a broad agenda for an end-of-session sprint that, in other years, could be a whole year's worth of activity — ranging from an arms-reduction treaty with Russia to a major immigration bill to overturning the ban on gay troops.

And that's not to mention the nearly 2,000-page, $1.1 trillion massive spending bill Senate Democrats said they'll try to push through. The bill contains hundreds of pork-barrel spending projects and new rules governing everything from airport baggage to detainees at the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

"We're not through. Congress ends on Jan. 4," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Nevada Democrat.

The omnibus spending bill is likely to get the most attention, spanning 1,924 pages and spending an average of $575.13 million per page.


Consider this FU from Reid to America as a Merry Christmas present and a Happy New Years all rolled into one.

Nevada? Aren't you so happy you kept him as your Senator? You must be so proud.

Sharron Angle Poised To Defeat Harry Reid In Nevada Senate Race



First the first time we see, via Real Clear Politics, three separate polls from different polling organizations, all conducted in late October, showing Sharron Angle with a four point lead over the Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

The polls:

LVRJ/Mason-Dixon- Angle 49 percent, Reid 45.
Rasmussen Reports- Angle 49 percent, Reid 45.
CNN/Time- Angle 49 percent, Reid 45.

If Angle wins, this will be the biggest upset in the 2010 election and as the latest Sharron Angle ad shows (shown above), her closing argument to the people of Nevada is simply to tie Harry Reid to Barack Obama stating at the end, "it's our turn."

Via Las Vegas Review Journal, we see that handicapper and director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, Larry Sabato, has rated Nevada as "leaning GOP," although he readily admits Nevada is one of the hardest races to call at this point.

Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, is one of the few national pundits to risk predicting Angle could pull off the biggest upset of the 2010 election. On Thursday, he put out his "crystal ball" picks that has the Nevada race leaning GOP for the first time.

"Of all our predictions, I'm least certain about the Senate race in Nevada," Sabato acknowledged in an interview. "Our assumption is, independents around the country have moved solidly behind the Republicans. But the Democrats are throwing everything they've got at the effort to save Reid. If Reid survives, it will be an escape worthy of Houdini. If Angle wins, it's a measure of the strong anti-Democratic trends of the 2010 mid-term elections.

"This is a referendum on Reid and Obama."


Angle gets 85 percent of the Republican vote and Reid 84 percent of the Democratic vote and Angle holds a double digit lead over Reid with Independents, 55 percent to 38 percent.

This one is going down to the wire and Democrats have been throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Nevada to help drag Reid over the finish line, yet polling patterns show Angle still continuing to pick up percentage points, albeit one-to-two points at a time.

Nevada Senate Race Heating Up With Allegations of Bribery And Voting Machine Errors



Early voting has started and one of the most competitive races is in Nevada where Senate Majority leader Harry Reid is trailing behind Republican challenger Sharron Angle according to the last two polls conducted by LVRJ/Mason-Dixon and Rasmussen Reports by two and four points respectively.

The video above shows a Nevada voter for Sharron Angle claiming that when she and others went to cast their vote for Angle the box next to Harry Reid's name was already checked in the latest reports coming out of Nevada.

Voter Joyce Ferrara said when they went to vote for Republican Sharron Angle, her Democratic opponent, Sen. Harry Reid's name was already checked.

Ferrara said she wasn't alone in her voting experience. She said her husband and several others voting at the same time all had the same thing happen.

"Something's not right," Ferrara said. "One person that's a fluke. Two, that's strange. But several within a five minute period of time -- that's wrong."


Earlier complaints were already being made by Angle's attorney, Cleta Mitchell, as evidenced by a letter published by The Las Vegas Sun, where Mitchell states "Reid “intends to steal this election if he can’t win it outright."

As Sharron Angle's campaign attorney, I am sorry to report that the Democrats and their cronies are up to their same old tricks, of trying to manipulate the election in hopes of skewing the results in their favor.

Two days ago, the Democratic Secretary of State announced that voters can be provided "free food" at "voter turnout events." Harry Reid has been offering free food and, according to other reports, some Democratic allies such as teachers' unions are offering gift cards in return for a vote for Reid.

Before we were even able to document the reported infractions to report to the authorities, the Democrat Secretary of State slammed the door shut on preventing this behavior and issued a public statement permitting these ACORN-style tactics. THESE are the kinds of shenanigans that can turn this race.


Read the rest.

The Nevada News Bureau confirms Matt Griffin, deputy secretary of state for elections, said Nevada law does not automatically prohibit a campaign or candidate from offering food to those who attend “get out the vote” rallies aimed at increasing voter participation.

As long as the food is not predicated upon voting for a particular candidate or ballot question, the event would comply with state law, he said.

Six days away from election day and already tensions are high as the early voter turnout in Nevada indicates trouble for Harry Reid.

October 21- WTOP:

While Democrats so far make up about 46 percent of those who've cast ballots in Las Vegas' Clark County, compared with 38 percent for Republicans, the Democrats' 8-point advantage is down from 22 points in 2008. And Republicans, who make up a third of the county's registered voters, are turning out in numbers that exceed their share of the electorate this time.

In Reno's Washoe County, where voter registration is about evenly split between the two parties, early voter turnout favors Republicans 47 percent to 40 percent. The two Nevada counties make up more than 80 percent of the state's electorate; the rest of the state's counties are sparsely populated and heavily Republican.


October 24- KOLOTV:

Republicans turned out in slightly larger numbers than Democrats during the first week of early voting in Nevada.


Nevada's senate race will undoubtedly go down to the wire with every last vote being counted and fought over and every indicator shows that the end results will be very close.

Although political junkies will be watching every race with control of the House of Representatives and the Senate up for grabs, Nevada is one race that is being watched even more closely because Harry Reid is the Senate Majority leader and a loss for Reid, whether the GOP takes control of the Senate or not, means Reid will no longer hold that position as of January 2011.

Nevada Senate Race: Angle 50 Percent, Reid 47

With midterms just two weeks away, Sharron Angle is ahead of Harry Reid in the Nevada Senate race by 3 percentage points, according to the latest Rasmussen poll.

A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in the state finds Angle with 50% to Reid’s 47%. Two percent (2%) prefer another candidate in the race, and one percent (1%) are undecided. (To see question wording, click here.)

The race remains a Toss-Up in the Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 Senate Balance of Power rankings.

A week ago, Angle held an insignificant 49% to 48% lead in a contest that has been marked for months by its closeness. In seven of eight surveys prior to this one since July, Reid and Angle have been three points apart or less. Both have hit the 50% mark one time.



The last poll, conducted by LVRJ/Mason-Dixon, had Angle ahead by 2 percent.

Angle has also managed to get late support as she raked in $14 million during her third quarter (July 1 to September 30).

Open Secrets explains how astounding a take that really is using comparisons:

But back to that $14 million. Just how big a figure is that? Well, consider this: Only seven candidates managed to raise more than $14 million during the entire 2008 election cycle, according to the Center for Responsive Politics’ research. According to Politico, only two federal-level candidates have raised more during a three-month cycle. They are Republican Rick Lazio, who raised $22 million in the third quarter of 2000 in a U.S. Senate campaign in New York against Democrat Hillary Clinton, and now-Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), who raised $14.2 million during his race for U.S. Senate.


Angle and Reid's one and only debate resulted in almost every pundit and media outlet declaring Angle the big winner, even those that endorsed Harry Reid grudgingly admitted she won the debate handily.

Nevada is the one Senate race this election cycle that means the most across the country, not just important to Nevadans, because replacing Reid as Nevada's Senator also dumps him from his position as Senate Majority Leader, to which he has used and abused heavily over the last few years.

Nevada Senate: Debate- Newspaper That Endorsed Harry Reid Admits Sharron Angle Won Debate

On October 10, 2010, the Las Vegas Sun formally endorsed Harry Reid and today that same paper headlines with "Reid lost the debate to Angle."

In their original endorsement they portrayed Sharron Angle as extreme as Harry Reid's attack ads have been doing consistently, but last night the two candidates each had a specific goal.

Reid's goal was to give Nevada voters a reason to reelect him and Angle's goal was to show she was not the lunatic Reid portrayed her to be and was not extreme.

Reid failed his goal and Angle succeeded in hers.

Las Vegas Sun:

Let’s get the easy part out of the way first:

Sharron Angle won The Big Debate.

Angle won because she looked relatively credible, appearing not to be the Wicked Witch of the West (Christine O’Donnell is the good witch of the Tea Party) and scoring many more rhetorical points. And she won because Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid looked as if he could barely stay on a linear argument, abruptly switching gears and failing to effectively parry or thrust.


The LA Times' Top of the Ticket has an excellent topic-by-topic recap for readers.

Sherman Frederick writes for the Las Vegas Review-Journal, which endorsed Sharron Angle and headlines today with "Angle mops the floor with Reid."

While both candidates -- Sharron Angle and Harry Reid -- started out slow and tight in their debate this evening, by debate close it was clear: Angle mopped the floor with Reid.

She hit hard on a variety of topics; showed she had the fire to be a U.S. Senator; demonstrated a command of the issues; and, of course, stayed gaffe free.

Reid meanwhile looked tired. Sounded entitled. He mixed up the Department of Education with the Department of Energy. Couldn't find his notes for the close and generally fell back on talking points on far too many questions.


The New Republic, never a bastion of conservative thought, headlines with "Reid My Lips: Last Night Was a Disaster," sub header "The Senate majority leader should've stayed home. "

Why Harry Reid agreed to have a debate with Sharron Angle is a bit of a mystery to me. If your campaign is based on portraying your opponent as loony, then why give that opponent a chance to look reasonable? Lyndon Johnson never debated Barry Goldwater. Then again, I’m no political strategist. And neither, I’ve come to see, is Harry Reid. So let’s focus on what matters now: that a debate was held in Nevada last night between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and his Republican challenger Sharron Angle. And its upshot was—sorry, folks—that Angle improved her chances.

I’m not suggesting that Sharron Angle, having been granted the opportunity to look reasonable, looked reasonable. On the contrary, she was very much herself—smiling maniacally in her crimson suit and hurling out bizarre fictions. But she looked reasonable enough. Lies about policy don’t really hurt you in a debate, especially when they’re voiced with conviction. What hurts you is looking evasive and squishy. Sharron Angle provided the lies. Harry Reid provided the squish.


Both Ralston at Las Vegas Sun and Frank at the New Republic, both show disdain for Angle in every word, yet both feel compelled to admit Sharron Angle came out ahead.

If even those that despise Angle admit, grudgingly, that she tore up Reid, then we can bet she helped herself and hurt Harry Reid in last night's debate.

Sharron Angle's Explosive 3rd Quarter Take Of $14 Million

Sharron Angle is ahead of Harry Reid in the latest polls for the Nevada Senate seat and the explosive news today is her amazing draw of $14 million between July 1 and Sept. 30.

"Sharron Angle produced one of the most successful single quarters of fundraising in the nation's history for a U.S. Senate campaign," said Angle communications director Jarrod Agen. "This is a testament to the hatred of Harry Reid, the nation's disapproval of President Obama, and the unprecedented grassroots support for Sharron Angle."

Agen did not provide figures for how much money Angle had left in the bank at the end of September and it's likely to be well less than the $14 million she raised since she relies heavily on a costly and aggressive direct mail fundraising operation.

Reid has yet to release his third quarter fundraising totals but as of mid-summer he had collected just short of $14 million so far in 2010. For the election cycle to date, Reid has raised $18 million.


Despite Harry Reid's aggressive campaigning and attacks against Angle, she is in the lead and now has evened out the money issue to the point where she can match Reid ad for ad, attack for attack.

I have said this before and will continue to reiterate it, Nevada's Senate seat does not only concern Nevadans, but replacing Reid in Nevada removes him as Senate Majority Leader of the United States Senate.

This race concerns every single citizen of the United States of America.

I Agree With Harry Reid... Let Us Look At What He Has Done To Nevada And The Country, Shall We?

Big mistake, born of desperation on Harry Reid's part after finding himself behind Republican challenger Sharron Angle in the last three polls gauging the reaction and voter preference for who will win the Nevada Senate seat Reid currently holds.

Reid "pleads" with Nevadans to "Remember All I've Done."

Alright, finally something I agree with Reid on...so let us take a look at what he did "for" Nevada, huh?

Harry Reid conducted major backroom deals to get Obamacare aka Health Care reform passed into law, but he did so against the will and desires of his own constituents.

January 2010, Fifty-four percent of Nevada voters, Reid's constituents, opposed Obamacare according to CQ Politics and polls conducted by a variety of organizations at the time showed similar results of the majority of Nevada voters opposing it.

And just 35 percent of Nevada voters support the Democrats' health care overhaul legislation, a 4 point drop since December. Fifty-four percent oppose it, including 62 percent of independents and 89 percent of Republicans.


Yet Reid knew better and told folks around the country that they just didn't "understand" the law, so of course Reid passed it against their wishes... cause it was good for them and he knew better.

April 2010, 62 percent of Nevadans still didn't like the law and wanted it repealed, higher even than the national average.

Moving right along to Bailouts, which the majority of America was against and Republicans (many who lost their primaries) and Democrats alike are suffering for the massive Banking bailouts, not to mention the auto industry bailout and just about ever other bailout.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 57% of likely U.S. voters have more confidence in the judgment of a member of Congress who voted against bailouts than in the judgment of one who voted for them. Just 21% trust the judgment of a Congress member who voted for bailouts more. Another 22% are undecided.


Republican primary voters removed many due to their unhappiness but other Republicans and Democrats in Missouri, Connecticut, Ohio and Texas are all struggling in their election or reelection campaigns because of their votes cast in favor of bailouts.

Harry Reid ushered that through the Senate as well using his position as Senate Majority leader to do so.

Good or bad, right or wrong, with Nevadans suffering the highest unemployemnt rate, over 14 percent, the last thing they want is their tax funds being spent bailing out large corporations or banks.

DREAM Act.

Harry Reid supported and allowed a vote to be brought to the Senate floor on the Defense Authorization bill to which he allowed the inclusion of the highly unpopular DREAM Act.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said at a press briefing Tuesday afternoon that the immigration reform proposal would come up as an amendment to the Defense Authorization bill. A Reid aide said that such a vote was likely to come on Tuesday of next week.

The defense bill also includes a gradual repeal of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy. There will be a floor vote on an amendment to strip the repeal out of the bill, though Democrats expect to have enough votes to defeat it.

The DREAM Act is far from comprehensive, but has strong backing in the Latino and immigrant rights community. It creates a conditional pathway to citizenship for undocumented children, and requires either military service or a college degree. Advocates see the DREAM Act as a major step toward comprehensive reform that would create a pathway to citizenship for most undocumented immigrants.


The DREAM Act would have allowed states to provide in-state tuition to undocumented students by repealing a 1996 ban on benefits for illegal immigrants.

That move was rejected and did not even generate enough support to even begin a formal debate.

Rasmussen findings:

A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that only 22% of voters support the proposal introduced by Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL). The Dream Act would have given legal status to children of illegal aliens who complete two years of college or military service. That low level of support is very similar to support for the “comprehensive” reform measure that failed in June.

Fifty-nine percent (59%) of all voters oppose the Dream Act concept. Republicans oppose it by a 5-to-1 margin and unaffiliateds are opposed by a 3-to-1 margin. Democrats are a bit more evenly divided—49% opposed and 31% in favor—but Nancy Pelosi’s party certainly doesn’t provide a base of support for the Dream Act.

Fueling opposition is a concern that passage of the bill would encourage more illegal immigration in the future. The view is held by 68% of the nation’s voters. The Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that just 15% disagree and 17% are not sure. Seventy-six percent (76%) of Republicans, 76% of unaffiliated voters, and 55% of Democrats believe that passage of the Dream Act would encourage more illegal immigration in the future.

The Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey also found that just 16% of voters believe that the children of illegal immigrants should qualify for in-state tuition rates at colleges and universities. Seventy-one percent (71%) disagree.


Despite that Democrats are promising to try again during the lame duck session, after the midterms but before the newly elected or reelected Senators take their seats.


Popularity

Reid is the second most unpopular congressional leader out of the top four congressional leaders, only beat in his unpopularity by Nancy Pelosi, who is not up for reelection this year.

That is the tip of the iceberg, so yes, by all means, let us all "remember" what Harry Reid has done, not only to Nevada, but to this country.

Reid has put his own political aspirations and career ahead of his electorate, he has show party loyalty above and beyond any type of loyalty to his constituents and as Senate Majority leader, this race does not just concern Nevadans but the whole country.

Now that he has ignored American voters, insulted them by passing legislation that they opposed as well as Nevadans opposed, he is now pleading with them to not kick his corrupt butt out of the Senate three weeks before midterm elections.

That is rich.

Hopefully Nevadans will pay just as much attention to his pleas as he did to theirs.

Nevada Senate Seat Race- Angle Takes Lead Over Reid In Last Three Polls


The most recent polls for the Senate race in Nevada between Harry Reid and Sharron Angle have Angle leading Reid by 2, 3 and 4 percent.

CNN/TIME polling from 10-1 to 10-5, 2010 has Sharron Angle up by two percent against Harry Reid.

According to a CNN/Time/Opinion Research Corporation poll released Wednesday, 42 percent of likely voters in Nevada are backing Angle, who enjoys strong support from many in the Tea Party movement, with four in ten supporting Reid, the top Democrat in the Senate who's bidding for a fifth term in the chamber. Seven percent of people questioned are supporting Scott Ashjian, who is running as a Tea Party candidate, but who is shunned by many in the grassroots conservative moment, and 10 percent say they are voting for none of the candidates listed.


Fox News report on 10-5, 2010 shows Angle ahead of Reid by three percentage points.

In the latest Fox News battleground state poll of likely voters, Angle drew 49 percent to Reid’s 46 percent. As voters make up their mind with four weeks to go until Election Day, Angle seems to have the edge.

Click here for additional demographics



Rasmussen reports on 10-5, 2010 has Angle ahead of Reid by four percentage points.

Republican challenger Sharron Angle has now moved to a four-point lead over Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in Nevada’s bare-knuckles U.S. Senate race.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Nevada Voters shows Angle hitting the 50% mark for the first time since mid-August, while Reid earns 46% of the vote. Two percent (2%) prefer some other candidate in the race, and two percent (2%) more are undecided. (To see question wording, click here.)



After Angle won the GOP primary, Reid threw everything he had against Angle in attack ad after attacks ad and saw a small bounce which seems to have disappeared now as voters are becoming more set in their choice with less likelihood of changing their minds bring Angle ahead of Reid in polling done in October.

Wake up America has taken a special interest in the Nevada Senate race because it is not just about Nevada, but with Harry Reid being the Senate Majority leader, his decisions and his backroom deals to push through legislation that has been opposed by the majority of Americans, makes this a race that should concern everyone across the country.

The Sharron Angle Tape Is Good For Angle

Latest Sharron Angle ad: 'Real World' (Video below)





Sharron Angle met with third party candidate Scott Ashjian to ask that he step aside in the challenge for the Nevada Senate seat, basically so that they did not cancel each other out and allow Harry Reid to walk away with reelection.

Ashjian recorded the call, then released it to Jon Ralston of the Las Vegas Sun.

Angle had some harsh words for the GOP establishment and spoke very bluntly.

At the meeting’s outset, Ashjian seems open to a deal, suggesting if he can get an apology from the Tea Party Express, “we can get on board.” He claims he does not want money, wants the lawsuits about his candidacy to go away – remember those voicemails from GOP lawyer Cleta Mitchell posted elsewhere on my blog suggest she was trying to “settle” something with him. By the end of the meeting, it’s clear this attempted backroom bargain is going nowhere – and I’m not sure Ashjian ever wanted it to.

There’s a lot more, too, including:

----Angle’s open disgust with her own party’s leaders and principles (or lack thereof)

----James’ obvious abandonment of Ashjian’s candidacy and insistence that Angle will lose unless he withdraws and that there is still time to get his name off the ballot

----Some brief trashing of Sen. John Ensign by Ziser and Ashjian

----Ashjian’s claims of physical threats and of being followed

----Angle’s agreement with him that both major parties are “corrupt”

----Angle’s claim to have taken over the Washoe County Republican Party and having her “guys” in the Clark County GOP


You can read the whole thing for yourself at Las Vegas Sun.

One quick point here is by turning this tape over, it does speak volumes about Ashjian's ethics since Nevada is a state where consent of both parties must consent to being taped in order for a recording to be lawful and Ashjian did not obtain that consent.

The Politico gets to the point quickly in their piece about this:

The recording is worth listening to in full despite its poor quality. It suggests that -- at least for the purposes of this conversation with a Tea Party figure -- behind the facade of a real grassroots outsider who hates the organized Republican Party is ... a real grassroots outsider who hates the organized Republican Party.


Well said.

The tape does not, in any way, show Angle to be anything but what she has claimed she was the entire race.

If anything, I believe this tape will garner Angle more support from Independents, Moderates and Tea Party supporters who want things in Washington to change and know that it takes more than one person to be able to actually make a difference.

Listen to the audio recording.

VIDEO- Americans For New Leadership Ad Against Harry Reid

Americans For New Leadership (AFNL) has produced a new hard hitting ad against Harry Reid and for Sharron Angle.

VIDEO- Sharron Angle Ad: 'Best Friend' -- Harry Reid, The Best Friend An Illegal Alien Ever Had.

With Harry Reid slipping the DREAM ACT amendment into the defense bill, hoping to force a vote for giving amnesty to illegal aliens that are here because their parents broke our laws and brought their children into the US illegally, this Sharron Angle ad is perfect timing in calling Harry Reid the best friend an illegal alien ever had.

Video below:



Text:

Illegals sneaking across our border, putting Americans safety and jobs at risk and what does Harry Reid do?

He comes out opposed to Arizona's tough new immigration law.

Nevada families struggling with the nation's highest unemployment, Harry Reid, he votes to give special tax breaks to illegal aliens and to give the illegals social security benefits... even for the time they were here illegally.

Harry Reid, the best friend an illegal alien ever had.

Angle's press secretary, Jerry Stacy, states "Harry Reid's support for amnesty and his opposition to Arizona's immigration law stands in direct contrast to what the voters of Nevada want. Senator Reid is out-of-touch with Nevadans in his attempts to give incentives to illegal immigrants while his state's unemployment skyrockets to the worst in the nation."

Harry Reid Sabotages DADT Repeal By Slipping DREAM ACT Into Defense Bill


Harry Reid, trying to garner more support in his Nevada senate reelection bid, decides to try some slight of hand by adding the DREAM ACT (immigration issue) into the defense bill where the language to repeal DADT (Don't Ask, Don't Tell) is already inserted in, in effect sabotaging the whole bill.

CNN reports:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Tuesday he will add the DREAM Act, a controversial immigration measure, to a defense policy bill the Senate will take up next week.

The decision means the defense bill, which often passes with bipartisan support, will be home to two major, thorny political issues – the other being the repeal of the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

Reid called the DREAM Act "really important" and said it should be passed because it provides a path to citizenship for young illegal immigrants who go to college or serve in the military. DREAM is an acronym for Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors Act.


If the bill doesn't make it through at least Reid can pretend he tried and hopefully Hispanics will vote for him in November... he is so obvious in his desperation as he starts trailing Sharron Angle again in the polls.

Willing to jeopardize the whole defense bill and even DADT repeal for his own political gain.

Is it any wonder he is so unpopular in Nevada as well as the rest of the country?

VIDEO- Sharron Angle Ad: 'Delusional'

Angle's ads keep getting better and better and new polling shows she has taken a one point lead over Harry Reid in her bid against Reid for the Nevada Senate seat that Reid holds now.

Angle drew 45 percent support, while Reid took in 44 percent. Five percent opted for "none of these," Nevada's unique ballot option that allows one to vote against all the candidates on offer. And Reid's path to victory depends on growing the number of "none of these" voters.

Reid's low job approval in the survey – 40 percent said he was doing a good job, while 55 percent disagree – helps explain the Democratic strategy of encouraging "none of the above" votes.


An Angle win would not only replace Reid in Nevada but would remove him as Senate Majority leader.

Harry Reid's Big Lie On Economy


Via The Hill:

"It would take a real stretch to think I caused the problems with the economy, and that's what she is trying to do," Reid said referencing his GOP opponent, Sharron Angle. "You know that I have nothing to do with those unemployment figures, in fact I have worked hard to change them ... I think it is my job to create jobs.

"As you know, I tried to do a lot of things to stop the Bush red spending" that left the nation with a ballooning budget deficit, Reid said. "I don't have any hand in what took place during the Bush administration — I tried to rein that in."


Granted Bush allowed more spending than he should have...that is on him.

Reid's fight against Bush was nothing more than politics, otherwise he would have fought the massive trillions in spending that Obama wanted, but he didn't. He bribed, cheated and paid off Senators to vote for those massive spending bills.

Reid has encouraged and enabled more spending under Obama than Bush ever spent. Bailouts, healthcare, stimulus.... Reid is a liar, under his rule in the Senate and Obama's reign as president, Harry Reid has enabled more spending and is part of the reason the economic conditions have gotten worse.

They ok'd trillions for a bandaid that slowed the bleeding but would never have stemmed it totally and he claims innocence?

Harry Reid is the poster boy for incompetence and needs to be replaced. Not just on a local level but as Senate Majority Leader he is the country's problem and everyone should be working to fire his ass.

VIDEO- Sharron Angle TV Ad: 'Faces'

Another hard hitting ad out by Sharron Angle against Harry Reid.

Video Below:



Text spoken by Angle:

On Harry Reid's watch Nevada's unemployment rate has shot past 14 percent, highest in the country. Our foreclosure rate is highest in the nation. Home values have dropped almost 50 percent.

Those aren't just numbers, they're people... who have lost their jobs, families who have lost their homes.

Harry Reid has dragged Nevada down to perhaps it's lowest point ever and he wants to call me and extremist?

I'm Sharron Angle and I approved this message.


Rasmussen has Angle up on Reid by two percentage points (with leaners) and Las Vegas Review Journal has Reid up on Angle by one percentage point, both within margin of error and listed as a statistical tie.

Nevada's Senate race is one the whole country is watching closely because Harry Reid is not just the Senator from Nevada, he is also the Senate Majority Leader which makes replacing him a country wide concern, not just a local one.
