Nevada's own Harry Reid has become a YouTube sensation for continually combining his gloomy disposition with rhetoric that makes even his most partisan supporters cringe.
His latest hilarious monologue came a few days ago on the Fox Business channel when, in trying to defend the exorbitant costs (and federal subsidies) of renewable power, he asserted that money is overrated in debating the country's energy policy.
"Coal makes us sick. Oil makes us sick. It's global warming. It's ruining our country. It's ruining our world," Sen. Reid blurted out between pregnant pauses. "We've got to stop using fossil fuels."
Yes, the resources that not only drive the world's economy and rising standard of living, but make life and prosperity possible in his political base of Las Vegas, are "ruining our country" and "ruining our world."
By Thursday afternoon, the video clip had close to 400,000 hits on YouTube. Like an "American Idol" reject who has no idea he can't sing, Sen. Reid serves up speechification that crashes and burns in spectacular fashion. Doesn't the Democratic Party have its own Simon Cowell, someone with enough common sense to cut off the Slipup from Searchlight before he finds all new ways to embarrass his home state?.....
