RWN not very bright. Apparently he cleared it in advance. And then when it became an issue he agreed to pay it himself.

Trying to nail Harry Reid for an arguably reasonable expenditure is a waste of time money and bandwidth.

At least find a scandal worthy of the Man's office. Not sh*t change.

From the OP link;

"It is not clear whether Reid’s reimbursement will absolve his campaign of the responsibility to report a more full explanation to the FEC by April 25."


A small glimmer of hope that he will be nailed to the wall for this.

Pure wishful BS.

He cleared it in advance.

Stop bugging the man on details. Nail him with something interesting or get back into the muck under your rock.

Dirty Harry needs to retire and let someone young fill his position. He is worth $5 million and claims he cares about the poor. What about some young person just coming up. Oh that's right, he isn't done padding his families wallets and purses.

No he does not. He can probably win again if he chooses. Particularly if the RWN continue to send the Sharron Angles after him.

But trying to get him on two bit silliness just wastes everyones time and makes him look better if anything.

His family is well enough off to support Harry in his dotage if he chose to go that way.

Baaaahhhh

You progressives are awesome. You're right. Nothing to see here. Reid is as clean as a bleached linen sheet. Carry on.

Now how can you use the L word about dims? After all, Bubba only "misled" when he said, "I did not have sex ...". Odumba and company merely get misquoted and misunderstood by people who actually learned something in school.

There's more

Reid’s granddaughter also got Nevada grants for her NYC theater « Hot Air

Quote:
The five-term senator’s ability to help his relatives may extend well beyond $17,000 for jewelry.
His granddaughter has also received financial support for her fledgling New York theater company from two Nevada-based foundations that typically prohibit donations to organizations outside of their service areas. The foundations belong to gaming and energy companies that have also donated to the lawmaker.
Ryan Elisabeth, in her early 20s and a recent college graduate, describes herself as a “performing arts professional.” In addition to her jewelry company — which is not mentioned on her LinkedIn profile — she also works as an assistant at the Tim Bavington Studio in Las Vegas and as artistic director at Sprat Theatre Company in Brooklyn, N.Y. Donations to the latter organization, which she founded, may raise some eyebrows.
Now, we have Nevada-based foundations who don’t usually operate outside Nevada giving young Ryan money for her performing arts profession, as she is only apparently a part-time jewelry maker whose work happens to be worth $17K:
According to the Brooklyn Arts Council, Sprat “is supported by funds from Clinton Global Initiative, Caesars Foundation, NV Energy Foundation, and individual donors.” (The Sprat website also lists these contributors, along with others.)
The Caesars Foundation is the philanthropic wing of Caesars Entertainment, a Las Vegas-based gaming corporation that owns and operates dozens of casinos. Sen. Reid has received funds from the corporation in the past.

Sorry, but something is fishy here. And why its not just outright illegal to give your own family member's "business" thousands of dollars to buy "gifts" for anyone is idiotic. And sure, it was just a coincidence that her theater received grant money. Reid surely had "nothing" to do with it.....

Ill try anything at this point. This man is one of the worst Democrats and human beings there is in politics. Pure scum.

But I sure as hell hope someone competent takes him on for his seat. And if I were a Democrat, id want to see him go. He's toxic and a sleazeball. Remember, this is the same guy who goes around accuses everyone else of this or that, tells the country he has word Romney didnt pay taxes, which was flat out false. Yet of course, he never had to answer the press or anyone else for those false allegations.

Reid is a politician. That is known. He takes quite good care of his constituents. He has never shown any indication of being corrupt in any significant way. He does talk too much and often that is half cockeyed.
