Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) did something today that Democrats should have been doing everyday for the last eight years. He called out Congressional Republicans for their unrelenting obstructionism. History will look back and note that the Republican Congress treated President Obama with unprecedented disrespect.
