Here‘s the Video of Harry Reid Using ’Clown‘ and ’Bro’ to Shoot Down a Reporter

You’ll never, ever again be able to accuse Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) of not being hip.

The Senate Majority Leader pulled a pop culture reference out of nowhere today in order to stonewall a reporter who asked him a question. In response he — with a straight face — said, “I don’t want to answer that question. That’s a clown question, bro.”

Politico captured the response:

So why is it a pop culture reference? Well, just last week Washington Nationals baseball phenom Bryce Harper used the response to swat away a reporter who asked the 19-year-old what his favorite beer was while he was playing the Blue Jays in Canada:

According to USA Today, the exchange between Reid and the reporter was regarding immigration:

Reid was being asked to respond to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell‘s comment that he’s waiting for Mitt Romney to weigh in on the DREAM Act, the legislation that would create legal status for some children of illegal immigrants. Reid also was asked if he had any intention of bringing up the DREAM Act for a vote to get senators on the record.

      People that vote for the democratic party are brain dead, so yes, dead people vote in Nevada.

      I guess you could call the dem lib party the zombie party of America.

      Yes, brain dead people. I just can’t figure out how he , as a socialist, is still a Mormon. The Mormon leaders have taught;
      “We must ever keep in mind that collectivized socialism is part of the communist strategy. Communism is fundamentally socialism”. Elder Ezra Taft Benson, Conference Report, October 1961, Afternoon Meeting, p.73-74
      President Marion G. Romney, in the First Presidency Message in the September 1979 Ensign, wrote: Communism is Satan’s counterfeit for the gospel plan, and it is an avowed enemy of the God of the land. Communism is the greatest anti-Christ power in the world today…
      Harry has been promoting the lefts socialist agenda for a long time.

      Harry Reid has had success in government because he makes such a good puppet and plays the game very well. He‘s a disgrace to his Mormon faith with the things he goes along with and all the clandestine corruption he’s been a party to in Nevada. God knows your heart Harry.

      Remember last year when he tried to casually put his arm on Pelosi’s shoulder? She made an azz of herself with her expressions of disgust instead of just moving over. So telling. It’s all a game with those people as long as they follow suit ,and do as told. No pearly gates for them.

    This is the same hipster that said he didn’t like it when tourists visited the capital because they smell, well I don’t think it would be any picnic to be around this old f**t either.
    Well he is good for a laugh once and awhile, he kind of reminds me of an undertaker, maybe it’s the pasty look.

    Now it’s Harry Reid doing his redition of the V-Monologues. I think his act’s called the Harry V@g.-Monlologues and in his case it applies. The Libs have been putting on this act for years (a talking V), especially that Nancy Pelosi. In fact she’s the face that chased everyone off when the play first was introduced. Imagine that coming at you. If she isn’t a walking advertisement for abstinence as a primary form of birth control …

      This is just too delicious… the standard opening question at Reid pressers needs to be:

      “Since you have previously identified yourself as a clown, a clown question I have for you is: Who makes your pasty white socialist greasepaint, bro. “
