As one looks back on the political news of 2013, it would be impossible to ignore all the absurd things Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said in the last year.
So sit back, relax and enjoy Reid’s greatest hits.
1. “Why would we want to do that?”
CNN reporter Dana Bash asked Reid why he wouldn’t put his support behind a Republican spending bill that provided funding for National Institutes of Health, which helps children with cancer. Bash inquired of the Senate Majority Leader: If you can help one child who has cancer, why wouldn’t you do it?
“Why would we want to do that?” Reid responded.
2. “Why don’t they get a life and talk about something else?”
During a press conference in September, Reid bashed Republicans for trying to defund Obamacare, accusing them of “playing silly games” and attempting to score “cheap political points.”
“Here’s a President who less than a year ago won an election by five million votes, five million votes,” he told reporters. “Obamacare has been the law for four years. Why don’t they [Republicans] get a life and talk about something else? People deserve better.”
