More quotes by Harry Reid
I was born and raised in the high desert of Nevada in a tiny town called Searchlight. My dad was a hard rock miner. My mom took in wash. I grew up around people of strong values - even if they rarely talked about them.

Cut, Cap and Balance is worst legislation in history.

There is no more important task in Washington than cleaning up the culture of corruption. Yet the president - whose White House has become the cradle of Republican corruption - is not taking responsibility for the costs of that corruption.

President Bush is a liar. He betrayed Nevada and he betrayed the country... All Americans should be concerned, not just because he lied to me or the people of Nevada and indeed all Americans, but because the President's decision threatens Americans' lives.

The threat to change Senate rules is a raw abuse of power and will destroy the very checks and balances our founding fathers put in place to prevent absolute power by any one branch of government.
Harry Reid
My staff tells me not to say this, but I'm going to say it anyway. In the summer because of the heat and high humidity, you could literally smell the tourists coming into the Capitol. It may be descriptive but it's true.
Harry Reid
There's a lot we can do to improve American's retirement security, but it's wrong to replace the guaranteed benefit that Americans have earned with a guaranteed benefit cut of up to 40%.
Harry Reid
The man's father is a wonderful human being. I think this guy is a loser.
Harry Reid
American families cannot compete with billionaires. Our involvement in government should not be dependent on our bank account balances
Harry Reid
I deeply regret using such a poor choice of words.
Harry Reid
Enforcement alone does not work. Unless we address the gap between our immigration laws and reality, illegal immigration will not stop and the situation on the border will continue to be chaotic.
Harry Reid
Obama a ‘light-skinned’ African-American ‘with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one.
Harry Reid
We're going to hear an earful, but it's going to be an earful of wonderment and happiness that people waited for for a long time.
Harry Reid
For senators to complain that they didn't know this was happening, we had many, many meetings that have been both classified and unclassified that members have been invited to.
