#1 This sounds like a great political bumper sticker:

"Stop driving your car! You're making Harry Reid SICK!"

#2 Looks to me like this could be spun as "Harry supports nukes"

#3 The BLM decision was idiotic. Reid is right in this instance.

#5 Lest we fergit, FOX + CNN > AL GORE intro speech for BARACK OBAMA > IIRC, "THIS 2008 ELEX WILL NOT ONLY DECIDE THE FATE OF AMERICA, BUT ALSO THE FATE OF THE ENTIRE WORLD" [destinies?], or words to that effect.

#6 As for shutting down LAS VEGAS > HMMMMMM, wid many Netters opining that the antagonisms bwtn Dubya + Moud going into 2008 closely resembles JFK + CASTRO vv CUBAN MISSLE CRISIS, DARE "SHUTTING DOWN LAS VEGAS" {Reno?] BE THE NEW "BAY OF PIGS"/OPERATION MONGOOSE - WHOM GETS TO BE "RFK" PROSECUTING THE MAFIOSI THAT ALLEGEDLY HELPED GET JFK ELECTED???

IMO its very possible the US Mafia may had been willing to overlook or even forgive JFK [+ RFK?]for RFK's prosecutions iff they had gotten Cuba back.

OTOH SCENARIO > WOT + many Commie + Leftist Groups reportedly colluding wid Radical Islamist Groups > IS IT POSSIBLE WAS JFK [+ RFK] ACTUALLY KILLED FOR TRYING TO ATTACK CUBA, NOT FOR RFK'S PROSECUTIONS OF MAFIOSI NOR FOR THE FAILURE OF THE BAY OF PIGS???? WHat would've been gained or lost, and by whom!?
