He is quoted as saying:
“It’s obvious that you can’t just walk away from this. And we can speculate all we want to speculate to what’s going to happen next,” Reid told KSNV-TV. “But I don’t think it’s going to be tomorrow that something is going to happen, but something will happen. We are a nation of laws, not of men and women.”
Wow

In context... What was the subject he was commenting on. The quote alone leaves a lot of wiggle room.

No context required for that last sentence

I'm very uncomfortable with the "we" reference. I absolutely despise politicians who speak of millions of Americans in a team context...the "all in the same boat mentality". I am me...there is no "we". IMHO individuality, diversity, opposition has been what has always distinguished America from the rest of the herd. Lose that, and you lose your freedom. Lately, there has been quite a bit of a community attitude among our top politicians - like we're all in this together...pulling for the common cause. Again, I don't like it one bit.

Pretty sure this is in reference to the Nevada rancher situation. Reid said they were all "domestic terrorists". What an ass! I wonder if the NRA is going to back Reid next time around like they did last election? I got on their case for backing Reid, even though Angle may not have been much of a candidate, she would have been better than this turd. Reid is just disgusting filth!

"You can't just break the law and walk away"  ? Uh.....excuse me Mr. Greed? That's what this administration is built on. I blew half a cup of coffee out my schnoz when he said that. |

We should change our pledge from "one nation indivisible", to "one nation every man for himself".  |
