On the Senate floor today, Majority Leader Harry Reid blasted the House for scrapping the Sandy relief bill:

Sen Harry Reid: “The House of Representatives walked away last night” on Sandy relief

— Jamie Dupree (@jamiedupree) January 2, 2013

Harry Reid says “I am dismayed and really saddened” House didn’t take up #SandyBill .

— Anthony Adragna (@aadragna) January 2, 2013

But, despite his stompy-footed outrage at the GOP, he vowed that he wouldn’t resort to name-calling. Apparently, Reid suffers from severe memory impairment.

LOL, “Boehner is a dictator, Romney is not a real Mormon.” etc RT @mkraju: Reid: “I’m not going to stoop to name-calling.”

As if “Boehner is a dictator” isn’t namecalling. RT @chadpergram: Reid on scrapping #Sandy bill: I’m not going to stoop to name calling.

Didn’t Reid, who now “won’t stoop to name-calling” call Boehner a dictator last week?

— Matt Cover (@MattCover) January 2, 2013

Why yes. Yes he did.

“Dictator” is a term of endearment to progressives, they dream of being one. #p2 RT @mkraju Reid: “I’m not going to stoop to name-calling.”

— Derek Hunter (@derekahunter) January 2, 2013

Ah. That explains it.

@cmdeb @mkraju Don’t forget Reid called Romney a felon over tax returns.

— Terry O’ (@IrishTea1) January 2, 2013

He did indeed.

@lheal @igorbobic Like Harry Reid saying, “Mitt Romney has sullied the Mormon faith.” #NoNameCalling

— Mr. Man (@CaptYonah) January 2, 2013

Yup.

Oh really is.gd/hbArhD RT @igorbobic: Reid: “Unlike others in this building I’m not going to stoop to name calling”

— Dan McLaughlin (@baseballcrank) January 2, 2013

To be fair:

Maybe Reid doesn’t actually stoop while he’s constantly name-calling.

—Christine(@cmdeb) January 2, 2013

He’s of low stature. And he’s not very tall. RT @cmdeb: Maybe Reid doesn’t actually stoop while he’s constantly name-calling.

Heh.
