You know a nerve was struck by Mr Broder's comments - now Dems have their shorts in a knot and sent a letter to the Washington Post
With a country at war, with their surrender bill being vetoed, and all the problems Dems say need to be solved - they have tiome to do this crap
Senate Democrats Send Letter to WaPo Contesting Broder’s Column About Reid
Posted by Noel Sheppard on April 28, 2007 - 10:22.
Better secure your computer from all combustibles, potables, and sharp objects, sports fans, for the Washington Post published a Letter to the Editor on Friday that is guaranteed to elicit uncontrollable fits of laughter.
Are you ready? Good.
In response to David Broder’s Thursday column about the horrible job Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nevada) is doing as Majority Leader – a sentiment likely an overwhelming majority of Americans share – Senate Democrats actually wrote the Post a complaint letter.
I kid you not.
As the Post didn’t feature this correspondence on the front page – instead including it with the other four “letters” published that day on page A22 – and since Broder wasn’t asked to make a correction or retraction, it doesn’t seem that this puff piece, hysterically titled “Sen. Reid’s Fine Leadership,” was taken very seriously (emphasis added throughout):
We, the members of the Senate Democratic Caucus, contest the attack on Sen. Harry Reid's leadership by David S. Broder in his April 26 column, "The Democrats' Gonzales."
In contrast to Mr. Broder's insinuations, we believe Mr. Reid is an extraordinary leader who has effectively guided the new Democratic majority through these first few months with skill and aplomb.
Doesn’t it make you feel safe knowing that people who believe Harry Reid is “an extraordinary leader who has effectively guided the new Democratic majority through these first few months with skill and aplomb” are in charge of the Senate while our nation is at war?
