"Why don�t they get a life and talk about something else? People deserve better."

From a list in Politico titled "Harry Reid�s insults: 10 greatest hits." That headline makes it sound as though he was some sort of master of the insult, perhaps not an Oscar Wilde, but at least a Don Rickles. But the closest he comes to saying anything striking/offbeat is...

When [George W.] Bush invited Reid for coffee in the Oval Office in the final weeks of his presidency, the president�s dog walked in, and Reid says he insulted the president�s pet. �Your dog is fat,� he said.

Also, this one isn't an insult per se...

�[Reid] was wowed by Obama�s oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama � a �light-skinned� African-American �with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one.��

... or not an insult to Obama anyway. It is an insult to Americans in general and it's a hurtful statement indirectly aimed at black people.

People do deserve better.
