Today The Hill reported that Harry Reid has adopted a new pet in the self-proclaimed “bearded Marxist” and Delaware Democrat Senatorial nominee Chris Coons. Not once, but two times Reid referred to Coons has his pet.
“I’m going to be very honest with you — Chris Coons, everybody knows him in the Democratic caucus. He’s my pet. He’s my favorite candidate,” Reid said.
“Let me tell you about him: A graduate of Yale Divinity School. Yale Law School. A two-time national debate champion. He represents two-thirds of the state now, in an elected capacity. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen him or heard him speak, but he is a dynamic speaker. I don’t mean loud or long; he’s a communicator. So that’s how I feel about Delaware. I’ve always thought Chris Coons is going to win. I told him that and I tried to get him to run. I’m glad he’s running. I just think the world of him. He’s my pet.

I dont know where to start. Harry already has questionable masculinity, he shoudlent be calling other middle aged men ” My Pet’ . Maybe Harry can take over Liberacie spot on the strip in Vegas in January when he retires.

That’s the most disturbing photoshop I’ve ever seen. It’s perfect!

Well, at least he didn’t call him his pet Coon. You know, like one who doesn’t speak with an Afrocentric dialect.
