31,072 American Scientists, the left-wing-media did not tell you about.

Reid must be the biggest idiot in Nevada.”Coal makes us sick, oil makes us sick.” He then touts solar power. Reid, please stand in direct sunlight in your hometown of Searchlight for about eleven hours or so and see if your not seriously “sick” from severe sunburn, dehydration and a really killer heachache you arse.

Caine   July 1st, 2008 - 12:09 am

Oh crap….I feel sick after listening to this guy babble on.

We cant use water?!?!?!?!?

Hahahahahahahahaha!

And this guy is educated and sits on the Senate?

ROFL!!!!!

INFIDEL   July 1st, 2008 - 12:11 am

To Polar Bear Paul –

Thanks for the tip! Spread the word.

The following 2:00 min. TV news report, about THE INVASION of our Hospitals, makes me sick. But as you’ll see, I better not get too sick.

What the heck were Nevadans thinking sending this intellectual lightweight to the Senate? Please send this loser back to Searchlight, NV soon so he can prospect like his father did. What a loser. Davy

Bart   July 1st, 2008 - 12:17 am

Reid is a loser, he doesn’t know what he is talking about. I feed my kids coal and oil every day and will not let them go out in the sun and they have never been sick a day in their life as far as I can tell.

Anyway, cars can’t run on solar power, they need coal or oil in the form of gasoline. If you take the cap off your gas tank filler to let the sunlight get in there, it doesn’t work, the gas just evaporates, trust me.

End the use of fossil fuels, NOW! The republicans want to keep using energy and damage our precious earth. The Democrats have solutions. We will stop using fossil fuels and begin to live without oil and coal. We must learn from those countries that don’t have cars and big industry. Harmony with nature at last.

Vote Obama ‘08

tduck   July 1st, 2008 - 12:28 am

…. crooked Harry and his lobbying sons of a B that married him , can all rot in HELL .
…. your time will come Harry , just like Teddy’s.

….is robert byrd really still alive ?

Don   July 1st, 2008 - 12:32 am

Did he use too many big words for you folks? You sure seem confused.

Wind, water, sun. They all have an infinite amount of free, clean energy. We harness water energy to a point, but we could do far more. Solar energy is mainly limited to trains/tracks, and you don’t hear a peep about wind.

His point isn’t to not use any coal or oil, that is simply not plausible. We could, however, reduce our dependence on them, replaced with options that do not pollute the air – which do make us sick! Asthma comes to mind, 25% of all urban children now enjoy inhalers.

Rover   July 1st, 2008 - 12:57 am

Jew parents and then he became a Mormon of all things…

But Reid has had good moments too :D

But panty wastes like him should not be “playing” now…

Time for this Democrat to just fold his old mouth up…

Freddie G   July 1st, 2008 - 3:49 am

I can’t believe that guys like this continue to get elected to public office! He’s sick alright, and I’m sick of him. What a smarmy SOB. He’s almost a bad as my neighbor. Nah…no one’s that bad!

Wick   July 1st, 2008 - 6:33 am

Yeah, Don,

Most of these responders have the education of a house cat.

Sun burn?

Geezus, do any of you even have a clue as to how this technology works?

Do any of you have any clue about anything?

dswilli   July 1st, 2008 - 7:52 am

No Harry you and your party of idiots make us all sick. Global warming = Great Socialist Trojan horse.

Bob   July 1st, 2008 - 8:10 am

Hi “Wick”,

Yes we have a clue how “this technology” works. Solar and wind power COMBINED provides less than ONE PERCENT of the US energy needs.

You bunch of treehugging envirokooks are really going to get a kick in the teeth next election time, and you don’t even see it! Talk about the education of a house cat..

robfromOhio1   July 1st, 2008 - 8:12 am

Harry makes me sick, Nancy P. makes me sick. Raising taxes on Energy companies makes me sick. Bill & Hellery make me sick, the ranting idiot representative from Mass. makes me sick. Hey Democrats and your liberal ideas – quick making me sick !!

jbh50   July 1st, 2008 - 8:14 am

Just reading the BO supporter posts…these people do not have their feet firmly planted on the ground. Fuelstop, you must be the person I see walking to work everday…and be sure not to eat anything from a grocer because it probably was trucked to the store.

jbh50   July 1st, 2008 - 8:21 am

Who wants to see windmills and solar pannels dotted all over the country? Where are the tree huggers protesting the ugliness of how this alternative would harm the woodland creatures?

BlueMax372   July 1st, 2008 - 8:30 am

Harry Reid makes us sick.

amtr   July 1st, 2008 - 8:34 am

Reid is simply wrong headed and evil! The global population is reaching 7 billion. Everything can not stop while windmills, solar panels, geothermal sources and nuclear reactors are brought online. People will die of hunger, cold, heat and disease if the energy we derive from coal, natural gas and petroleum stops. I doubt Reid, Gore, Kennedy, Kerry, Pelosi or Obama will be the ones going without since they are all seriously rich! The no fossil fuel environmentalists are the new NAZIS. They are pushing an agenda that will bring about the deaths of hundreds of millions from starvation and reduce the rest to starvation poverty forced on workers forced by the Germans to build V2 rockets in underground facilities.

Woody   July 1st, 2008 - 8:46 am

You’re right Reid: all practical energy solutions should be off the table because leftist ideology and bloggers tell us so. Idiot!

cobray   July 1st, 2008 - 11:35 am

Why no reference that Ried is a mormon. When Romney was running thats all the press talked about. Mormon mormon mormon. HARRY RIED IS A MORMON

And thats only after the US Govt subsidies 26% of the cost of creating that energy.

Marcy   July 1st, 2008 - 9:30 pm

For 30 plus years people have been letting the fairytale needs of moose, penguins, and salmon, trump the needs of a commonsense energy policy that enables us to be self-sufficient, instead of beholden to the middle eastern gangsters who hate us to the core. The foolish policies promoted by environmentalists (read green s o c i a l i s t s) have almost brought the greatest nation on earth to its knees. Wake up folks: “Green is the New RED”. It is the leftist propaganda tool to manipulate the “feelings” of well-intentioned people to switch their “brains” off. It’s time to wake up.

Ancient Texan   July 2nd, 2008 - 6:05 pm

Tell Harry and Al Gore That 31,072 REAL science people say the Sky Is Not Falling. Harry is a total idiot and it’s a total nightmare that this nut-case is in charge of anything larger than his local animal shelter.

anonymous   July 7th, 2008 - 12:12 am

Every time this guy opens his mouth he become an embarrassment to the Democratic party. Or is the party so stupid that they think this guy makes sense?

grik   November 2nd, 2008 - 8:44 pm

Human beings are nothing without moose, penguins and salmon. You go live in your cement cell.

I don’t want to live in a world without nature.

Further I don’t think God put us hear to disrespect his creation.

I love listening to some of you idiots calling you other idiots stupid.

Travis   November 2nd, 2008 - 9:20 pm

The last time I looked, this country ran on big coal and big oil – all the things liberals hate.

Try putting a sail up on top of your car, and see how far you get.

edword   November 2nd, 2008 - 10:44 pm

Sorry but an Obama win may be the ONLY way to get rid of these morons once and for all. Hell, let ‘em tank the country. Think of it like getting the chickenpox; one fat dose of illness and hopefully it’s over for good.

madrigal   November 2nd, 2008 - 11:09 pm

Sadly most voters will not hear of this because the MSM will have none of it.

An Obama win will be the culmination of a massive, unprecedented media manipulation effort. Had the MSM not intentionally repressed the facts regarding BO’s background and focused their attacks of McCain Palin, it would be an entirely different situation right now.

Don’t EVER forget this fact. THEY are choosing who wins this race, not you or I. Let them know by avoiding every product they and their parent companies provide, as well as their sponsors. They are stealing something sacred from you–your right to choose your leaders. This can never be forgotten nor forgiven, only punished until the playing field in leveled again. (and maybe not even after that).

Bill Chicago   November 2nd, 2008 - 11:28 pm

“Coal makes us sick. Oil makes us sick. It’s global warming. It’s ruining our country. It’s ruining our world. Nancy says so, so it must be true. Can’t I have pie now?”

Lady liberty   November 2nd, 2008 - 11:39 pm

Get all the libs out of DC & the air will clean up real quick!

Dingy Harry makes me depressed.

For the life of me, I can’t understand why the people of Nevada keep re-electing this douchebag?

American Liberal   February 26th, 2009 - 2:25 pm

We must stop the use of coal and oil at the end of this month are well will all die. We can not keep treating the Earth like this. Please people stop driving your cars and don’t turn any lights in the house. I’m almost to tears how we treat things. We kill animals so we can eat them. How cruel is that? The little pig is just running around in the mud and we kill him. Shame on us. Harry Reid is a saint and one of the smartest liberals in Washington. Along with Nancy and Harry we get this country on the path to correct thinking. Please America listen to Harry and Nancy. We must also get rid of our military and let the UN protect us form our enemies. As a matter of fact if did get rid or our military our enemies would not bother us anymore because they would know we want to get along with them.

Azul Del Fuego   March 30th, 2009 - 2:41 pm

For you, it’s 3 days “in the box’ to get your “mind right”.

davidwamsley   June 15th, 2009 - 12:02 am

Coal and oil both make you sick.
Your willingness to turn the US into your own version of North Korea makes me want to puke.
You have no solutions for the mess that was mostly caused by government interfearance in things you have no knowledge of.
You who hopes never to read any of Ms. Sotomyers legal opinions but encourages her nomination to the supream court.
You who spend our money like a crack whore and then have the nerve to say we smell. I have news for you Harry that was your own breath blowing back in your face!

Laffing at Leftists   July 16th, 2009 - 2:00 am

@American Liberal hey moron why don’t you and your other sick moronic friends go pound sand up each others rear until it comes out your ears since you are so smart, not!

Reis needs an enema and a haircut then maybe he’ll disappear…. Idiot!

anchorbeach   July 17th, 2009 - 9:02 am

Harry Reid is a soldier in the army from within, the fifth column, that is destroying the American industrial infrastructure from within. Look at what he supports, a high capital gains tax that forces companies to put manufacturing jobs overseas, a cap and trade system that will force the few that have fought through it all to continue manufacturing here to now give up and transfer yet more of those jobs overseas, “green technology”, when it we have technologies to burn coal, domestic oil, nuclear fuel cleaner than ever before, this is another burden hoisted upon the United States citizenry, nationalized health care, no one knows where the money is going to come from? It is again going to be hoisted on the backs of small businesses thus bankrupting and crushing them.
Do we need any more proof as to why we need to clean house in 2010, these leftist clowns are creating a fascist state. They are purposely throwing people out of jobs and businesses and then telling you its all getting better.

Muttley   July 17th, 2009 - 1:56 pm

Harry Reid and the Pelosi Posse make me ill.

njbob   July 17th, 2009 - 5:36 pm

Why isn’t reid in prison with the other tax cheats? He must be a kingpin in the demotaxcheat junta. Perhaps they should all be boiled in oil.

Socialism Anyone?   July 18th, 2009 - 11:18 am

The only thing that makes us (Americans) sick are the lying scumbags like Harry Reid, Obama, and Nancy Palosi. They are interested in only one thing and that’s their own power and wealth. (Has anyone ever seen Nancy roll around in a Smart Car?) The only “change” WE THE PEOPLE should believe in is voting all these morons out of office as soon as possible.

Libertyman   July 20th, 2009 - 7:44 pm

moderation?

Nanook   July 21st, 2009 - 6:46 pm

Coal makes us sick? No Harry, freezing our arses off in the middle of winter makes us sick.

Simon   July 22nd, 2009 - 10:24 am

Harry Reid makes me sicker than coal or oil ever have!!!
