More quotes by Harry Reid
We all know if we change the bill, it's gone.
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.
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.
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
We in the Senate refer to Sen. Gillibrand as the hottest member.

After I became an attorney, the mother of two girls I'd known in high school came to see me. She'd endured years of heinous abuse from her husband that nearly destroyed her. I'd never suspected a thing.
Harry Reid
The president is now having to deal with a Congress. He's never had to do that before. The president in the past, he has just done whatever he wanted. He had a big rubberstamp here up on Capitol Hill, whatever he wanted, they stamped OK. That's not the way it is now.
Harry Reid
We focused attention on what some believe are the flaws in the process leading to Senate consideration of the bill and the flaws of the bill itself.
Harry Reid

Harry Reid
Unemployment insurance was meant to be a bridge for temporary spells of unemployment. The bad news is all the evidence is that the longer you have unemployment insurance, the longer people stay out of work, their skills erode. The job they ultimately get pays less. And that's not to their benefit.
Harry Reid
Everybody else, including the rich people, are willing to pay more. They want to pay more.
Harry Reid
Obama a ‘light-skinned’ African-American ‘with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one.
Harry Reid
It's been obvious that [Republicans]'re doing everything they can to make [Obama] fail. And I hope, I hope - and I say this seriously - I hope that's based on substance and not the fact that he's African-American.
Harry Reid
I believe myself that the secretary of state, secretary of defense and - you have to make your own decisions as to what the president knows - (know) this war is lost and the surge is not accomplishing anything as indicated by the extreme violence in Iraq yesterday.
Harry Reid
They’re nothing more than domestic terrorists.
Harry Reid
Some said he shouldn't save Detroit. But President Obama made the tough and right call to save more than a million American jobs in an important, iconic industry.
Harry Reid
The war in Iraq is a serious situation. It's - it involves the worst foreign policy mistake in the history of this country. So we should take everything serious. This is - we find ourselves in a very deep hole. We need to find a way to dig out of it.
Harry Reid
Republicans cannot be trusted to end the culture of corruption.
Harry Reid
How are my ribs? They're so meaningless it's hard to believe.
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%.
