Harry Reid Gets Lambasted By Veterans…
In a question and answer session at the Veterans Administration Medical Center in Reno, Nev., on Thursday, April 5, 2007, Harry Reid got clobbered by a room full of veterans for not supporting the troops.
The veterans condemned Reid and fellow democrats “for using the troops as a political football”:

Harry Reid replies to the accusations telling the veterans (quote):
“There’s never been any suggestion that the military will not get everything they need.”
But, on Monday… via the website of democratic senator Russ Feingold:
U.S. Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) announced that they are introducing legislation that will effectively end the current military mission in Iraq… The bill ends funding for the war.
The mainstream media did not have much to report on this confrontation today. It was just your average press conference…
