Meet Harry. 
Meet Roland.
When Harry finally met Roland.
Lover's quarrels are always deliciously salacious. Headlining news, rumors flying, 'he said'-'he said' accusations. The Senate Democrats were so disgusted with Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich's actions, they had commited to "not seat anyone appointed by Gov. Blagojevich". When Roland Burris showed up on Capitol Hill, incomplete certificate in hand, Sen. Reid refused to grant him his seat. Soon-to-be-Senator Burris held an impromptu press conference in the rain, winning him sympathy points. The Black Caucus in the Senate jumped ship, President-Elect Obama reportedly jumped ship, Sen. Fienstein jumped ship, leaving Sen. Reid "all by [him]self". The lonliness eventually forced him to abandon his morals and meet with Roland Burris. In a press conference afterwards, he assured the American public his refusal to seat Burris had nothing to do with race. This was in response to the claim 'a lot of people' were making. Thank you for clearing up the non-issue, Mr. Reid. The 'nonracialness' of this controversy has now been cleared up, and they can 'do what they can do' now. I am grateful they have kissed and made-up, and now we can get down to the dirty business of finances. The number one reason for couples separating are financial issues. Hope they can make it through.

Is that Reid flipping the bird on a conservative blog? Fantastic!
The Democrats eating their young? What took you so long?
You beat me to the punch on this one, I'd just been putting a post together. Definitely political theatre at its worst. Reid did die a slow death all by himself there. Such it is in politics. As much as I love name dropping, my dad actually knows Burris. Says he's a nice guy, a current political hawk, but nice just the same. (Sorry, don't know if he's a church member.)
We can all thank the focal point of this problem, the Gov of IL for raining on Obama's big entrance.
(Please try to contain your cheering...;o))
You ladies said it, I have nothing to add. But I wonder if that really is him flipping the bird or if someone is REALLy good a photo shop.....What a joke.
Maybe he was about to snap his fingers...
About the bird, when I found it there were several others, and one from a youtube clip. It looks like a freeze-frame shot of a video. Harry Reid (if you google him) is very unphotogenic, and it is fabulous.
During this whole soap opera, compliments of Reid, I actually felt bad for Burris. If he comes out with a clean, solid record, he should be seated. I just hope he wasn't involved with anything with the Gov. Blago.
are you sure he just isn't one of those people who naturally point with their middle finger? HA!
My husband does that!!!
