You know Harry Reid, right? He's an incumbent Democratic Senator who is running for re-election in Nevada. He's facing Sharron Angle, a Republican challenger, who is currently in a dead heat with him. You see, I'm a little confused because there must be another Harry Reid who said the war in Iraq was lost, because this Harry Reid now says he never said that.
According to Reid's campaign site, Republicans and Sharron Angle have lied about his actual quote. On his website, they contain the "real" quote: "The war cannot be won militarily. It can only be won politically." According to his campaign, Reid said that March 3, 2007, referencing a supposed statement by General David Petraeus.
What's more, Reid has taken to Facebook and Twitter to defend his comments, writing that what Ms. Angle says is a "LIE" (yes, he wrote in all capital letters) and that she was making things up.
Well, that's really weird considering that this video here shows Reid saying, quote, "The President knows, this war is lost:"
You know, I could almost swear that he said the war is lost. Especially during the part where he said "this war is lost." But hey, the Reid campaign sticks by what they say. Take this actual quote from the campaign site: "That is not changed. In the middle of their article, they wrote in big, bold, orange capital letters what they know to be a lie." Well, I guess his campaign's "facts" and my eyes, ears, and common sense are going to have to disagree on this one. But I would like to add one more thing. These lies that the Reid campaign are spewing really show what they think of the average voter. They have no respect. They believe that we are stupid, that they can lie to our faces and get away with it. I'm sorry, soon-to-be-former Senator Reid, but I'm not buying your bull. Vote Angle.
