Now, if he said he wanted hearings on the tax exempt status of their contributions to a political campaign, that might have caught my attention for just one minute. As it is, his statements are less than disengenuous. It may have been a “waste of money and goodwill” in Reid’s opinion, but it certainly garnered a victory for the right wing bigots.
