HE'S LOSING IT

  • HARRY REID DIVESTS HIMSELF FROM BODILY PRISON: Harry Reid said the most awesome thing in a press conference a little while ago: “Joe Lieberman is the least of Harry Reid’s problems.” That’s you, though; you are Harry Reid! And what are Harry Reid’s other problems? Because Joe Lieberman seems to be a significant problem of Harry Reid’s. It’s the clap, isn’t it? You got the clap. Goddamnit, Harry Reid. We can’t have these distractions right now! Pull yourself together, man. [TPM]

    Harry Reid is channeling Bob Dole? Bob Dole doesn’t need this.

  2. Mr Blifil says at 4:41 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Harry Reid’s gonna enjoy this off-season. Harry Reid brought him some game like a muthafucka and Harry Reid don’t even want to hear all that noize about this and that. Hizzy Rizizzy got mizzad skizizells, you know like? And Harry Reid will tell suckas who or what else his problem may or MAY NOT be. Harry Reid ain’t even playing.

    chascates: Close. It’s actually that he caught a rare strain of the clap from Bob Dole. Bob Dole needed it pretty bad.

    Shoot him, Harry. Shoot him in the hay-id.

    He clearly has a Hairy Reed. And that can be a problem (ingrowns).

  6. Capricatony says at 4:44 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Today Joe Lieberman isn’t even the least of MY problems. Poor Harry Reid.

  7. Rodney Badger says at 4:45 pm, October 27th, 2009

    He actually said “If you are having cloture problems I feel bad for you son, Harry Reid’s got 99 problems but Joe Lieberman aint one.”

  8. SayItWithWookies says at 4:46 pm, October 27th, 2009

    This was linked to from the TPM comments — apparently someone on Kos called Lieberman’s office and they said the media report is wrong — that Lieberman’s actually going to vote for cloture:

    As credible as any other source, really.

  9. MLHencken says at 4:46 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Harry Reid needs to give Joe Heeberman an atomic nutkick.

  10. Fox n Fiends says at 4:47 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Harry Reid needs to “eliminate” Traitor Joe.

  11. Gopherit says at 4:52 pm, October 27th, 2009

    I hope he enjoys his own planet in his afterlife………and i hope it’s a long fucking way from here.

  12. Come here a minute says at 4:57 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Harry Reid calls Lieberman the least of his problem, but to Lieberman it’s just a three way split decision for third place.

  13. ChernobylSoup v2 says at 4:59 pm, October 27th, 2009

    If only a shot of penicillin would cure us of the Lieberman.

  14. Gopherit says at 5:00 pm, October 27th, 2009

    also, if David Ickes doesn’t use this as evidence of Reid being reptilian, I will be very sad.

  15. Atheist Nun says at 5:14 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Ooh, somebody got the Third-Person Reach-Around Back-Hand Bitch-Slap. (® Patent Pending)

  16. Extemporanus says at 5:16 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Snarkalicious: Bob Dole’s clap is a rare strain thanks to that goddamn Jerry he hooked-up with just outside Bologna back in ‘45.

  17. lawrenceofthedesert says at 5:17 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Harry was not speaking in terms of significance, rather in terms of stature. As problems go, Joe ain’t got much. He’s just keeping his hand out as long as he can and trying to milk some badly needed publicity. Joe’s like the guy in the Tour de France who goes on a one-man breakaway 125 miles from the end of the stage — almost no chance of winning, but he spends most of the day on t.v. and the sponsor digs it. Maybe Joe has a pet highway project that he wants Harry to throw in; for a landsman, Joe seems rather pork-driven.

  18. sati demise says at 5:52 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Joe is in a fix here, a bitch slap from Obama or Reid, or have to go home to his insurance industry whore of a wife every night for more bitch slapping!

  19. Snarkalicious says at 6:03 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Extemporanus: I’m confused…is that you, or Bob Dole’s calp talking?

  20. Suds McKenzie says at 6:07 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Suprisingly Reid also went on to quote Tupac saying : “my mother always said If you cant find something to live for find something to die for” and “wars come and go, but my soldiers stay eternal”.

  21. Extemporanus says at 6:40 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Snarkalicious: I am Bob’s complete lack of clapping ability.

  22. PoignancySelz says at 8:25 pm, October 27th, 2009

    Extemporanus: Could have been Bob Dole’s clap is a rare strain of anal condyloma thanks to that goddamn Bologna in the backside circa ‘45.

  23. Tommmcatt says at 8:39 pm, October 27th, 2009

    lawrenceofthedesert:

    What is this Tour De France you speak of, commie! Murrican sports only!

  24. LowerdPeninsula says at 2:52 am, October 28th, 2009

    Reid is actually right, this time. Joe has been so unreliable on the big things, that he was written off, long ago. I’m glad he’s tossing Joe aside. You can only worry about what you have any semblence of control over.

  25. lawrenceofthedesert: oui…Thomas Volkler..
