Letter to the editor:

Senate leader is president’s puppet

Regarding the article “Passion and pique spur Harry Reid in fight with Republicans over government shutdown” in the Oct. 4 Sun:

This article really shows how small Reid’s mind is. He can’t accomplish anything without a lot of name calling. I can’t blame any Republican who doesn’t want to do any business with him. The whole scenario reminds me of President Barack Obama being an organ grinder and Reid being his monkey. If Obama won’t negotiate, then why bother? I think Reid is at fault for the shutdown because he shelved everything the Republicans put out, without debate.

He was afraid that his own party would cave. I will be glad when he is up for re-election. I surely won’t vote for him.
