After I read that Ed Meese had convened a meeting of the heads of the current Rethuglican party in January of this year to discuss how they should shut down the federal government, I realized that we are in dire straits.

What Harry Reid did was to save the process that we have developed over the last 224 years to conduct the business of the federal government.
The business of the federal government is America.

So, as far as I am concerned, Harry Reid saved America.
