I have to a
gree with Hugh. Turn. The. Plane. around.
Incoming Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will miss the state funeral
for former President Gerald Ford at the Capitol Rotunda on Saturday
night, opting instead to lead a delegation to South America with an
expected stop at the Machu Picchu Inca ruins.
It isn't just Reid, but he is the most senior. If our elected officials can't even show respect to a fallen American leader, how can they lead?
Harry Reid D-NV, Dick Durbin D-Ill, Kent Conrad, D-N.D., Judd Gregg, R-N.H., Robert Bennett, R-Utah, and Ken Salazar, D-Colo. For shame!
