From the Las Vegas Sun: It’s no secret that Sen. Harry Reid is a fan of Bryce Harper, the
19-year-old slugger from Las Vegas who’s led the Washington Nationals
from the butt of capital-city jokes to first place in the National
League’s Eastern Division.
But few ever expected the septuagenarian senator would start emulating the phenom teen’s now-infamous quips.
When confronted with a question Reid didn’t feel like answering at
his weekly press availability, Reid turned and told a reporter: “That’s a
clown question, bro.”
Harper said the same thing to a Canadian reporter last week
who asked him if he would celebrate hitting a home run against the
Toronto Blue Jays with a beer. Harper is above the legal drinking age in
Canada.
Reid invoked Harper’s line when a reporter asked him what he thought
of Sen. Mitch McConnell, the Senate Republican leader, saying the
Republicans were going to wait to fully respond to President Barack
Obama’s announcement last Friday that DREAM-Act eligible youth could
start applying for work visas until Mitt Romney presented his response. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/jun/19/sen-harry-reid-reporter-s-clown-question-bro/
Bryce Harper is probably embarrassed- this is like your grandfather talking in rap. The old man may think he is cool but all the kids think you ought to grow up.
It's not funny Harry, especially when a senile old goat says it.
Maybe we ought let Stewie take care of Reid :
