Harry Reid: The Great Compromiser

NOT SINCE THE DAYS OF HENRY CLAY HAS THE NATION BEEN BLESSED WITH A LEADER THE LIKES OF HARRY REID.  SURELY THOSE RADICAL REPUBLICAN TEA-BAGGERS COULD LEARN FROM HARRY.  AFTER ALL HARRY AND, I SHOULD ADD BARACK OBAMA CONTROL WHAT GOES ON IN THE U.S. SENATE AND THE PRESIDENT HAS ALSO SAID HE IS OPEN TO NEGOTIATING AT SOME TIME IN THE FUTURE.  BOTH HARRY AND BARACK WOULD NEVER, NEVER SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT.  IT IS AFTER ALL THOSE EVIL TEA-BAGGER RADICALS WHO ARE HELL-BENT ON DESTROYING THE COUNTRY IN THE NAME OF ALL THOSE MISGUIDED REACTIONARIES WHO ELECTED THEM.  THANK GOD, WE HAVE MEN LIKE BARACK AND REID WHO ARE WILLING TO COMPROMISE IN ORDER TO SAVE THE NATION.  NEITHER OF THESE TWO GREAT LEADERS HAVE A PARTISAN BONE IN THEIR BODIES.  CARTOON BY BOB GORRELL
