We have a well documented list of occurrences that show Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D - NV) isn't all there; he's a walking disorder that makes one incoherent statement after the next.  The issue we're facing now is the upcoming taxmageddon that will cripple America's economy.  These tax increases will take place on January 1, 2013 and they will hit middle class citizens the worst.  When asked why Democrats didn't raise taxes when they held a supermajority from '08-'10, Reid stumbled like a moron.

What Harry Reid failed to say was that the White House and Democrats were obsessed with ramming Obamacare into law, which took up nearly 100% of their time.  And in their other time, they were obsessed with the stimulus and Cap & Trade.    At a press conference last week, the incoherent moron stumbled to say why he didn't ram a tax increase into law.  Here's the exchange and video, which starts off showing Patty Murray, the demented socialist from Washington:

TWS: Leader Reid, when it comes to the Bush tax cuts...why didn't Senate Democrats push through this bill back when you controlled the Senate, the House, and the presidency? 

REID: The tax cuts weren't about to expire then. So that's why we're doing it now.

TWS: You could have foreseen this issue two years ago.

REPORTER: What are you talking about? They expired at the end of 2010. 

REID: And that's why they were extended one year.

TWS: Why didn't they vote when you could have pushed this bill through and had it signed into law? 

REID: Next question. 

Nothing coming out of Harry Reid's mouth makes any sense.  He's obsessed with blaming Republicans, when his party had the opportunity to raise taxes, which is what they ultimately want to do.  Democrats hate successful people and want to take all of the money and redistribute it, no matter how much evidence is out there showing it HAS NEVER SUCCESSFULLY WORKED IN HISTORY.  Murray, Schumer and little Dick Durbin, all of which were standing next to Reid like the perverts that they are, absolutely despise America.
