ANOTHER hARRY REID SCANDAL!!!

From the LVRJ: Work by Las Vegas city officials to help the son of Nevada’s most powerful politician secure exclusive use of scarce city soccer fields for tournaments has rival footballers crying foul.
The deal, which is yet to be finalized, would upend the city’s longtime approach in doling out access to soccer facilities and give a soccer group led by Key Reid, son of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, premium dates for a “college showcase and junior event” tournament in the spring.
City officials have quietly negotiated the changes directly with Reid, breaking with longstanding practice of letting the Nevada Youth Soccer Association assign tournament dates on city fields.
“I think the city was influenced,” said Pam Calhoun, president of Nevada Youth Soccer Association. “I think they felt pressure.”
In addition to being the son of one of the country’s most influential politicians, Reid played on a University of Virgina national championship team and was coached by Bruce Arena, now the coach of the professional Los Angeles Galaxy team.
Reid is also an attorney in private practice who at one time worked for developer Chris Milam on a failed attempt to attract a professional soccer team to an arena and stadium complex Milam wanted to build with City of Henderson endorsement on low-cost land from the Bureau of Land Management.  http://www.reviewjournal.com/news/las-vegas/las-vegas-city-officials-kick-soccer-deals-reids-way
Would it be too much to ask for, at the next Reid family reunion, a major earthquake strike where they are meeting and eliminate the whole clan, except the children?
