Reid determines weapon for “Fight”

I have long been suspicious of the political moves of Sen. Harry Reid, Democratic Senate Majority Leader. In my opinion, his decisions lack the substance and clear-headed processes one would associate with such a highly visible leader of the free world.

The recently passed Debt Ceiling Bill calls for a selection of twelve members of Congress to figure out how to cut a little more than a trillion dollars from the federal budget by the end of this year. There are to be six Republicans and six Democrats and it was incumbent upon Mr. Reid to choose three of them.

Mr. Reid has chosen Patty Murray (D-Wash), Max Bacus (D-Mont) and John Kerry, (D-Mass). At this time, I have no political issues with this trio and wish them well.

However, I do wonder if the good Sen. Reid has just announced his intentions of bringing a gun or a knife to the fight. I find it curious Mr. Reid is first in announcing his chosen weapon to be interpreted by the opposition and the names of his Generals.

If would have been fun having all twelve candidates on stage being revealed by opening door number one, door number two etc., (Smile)
As always,
