WASHINGTON -- One of the funnier stories in Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s autobiography “The Good Fight” is the one he tells about first seeing his wife.
Reid the teenager was going by her house in Henderson when he spotted Landra, also a teen, washing the family car in the driveway.
“Wow, that’s a pretty nice car washer,” Reid recalls in the book.
One punched-out father-in-law-to-be, five kids and many grandchildren later, and the rest is history.
Mr. and Mrs. Reid are celebrating their 50th anniversary this weekend.
They’re having dinner and taking in Billy Crystal’s performance here at National Theater.
In an age of fleeting alliances, the golden 50 makes for a wholesome tale (and one with nice timing in a campaign year).
Maybe they should go to the 9-12 raley and see glenn beck
It's a tough choice: go see Billy Crystal, who is expected to be funny but may not be, or go see Glenn Beck, who doesn't mean to be funny but actually is quite hilarious if you like to watch the insanely stupid become more insanely stupid.
We will be celebrating Hairy Reed's final year in office. Then he can open his own car wash down in Flashlight.
sPORt's!
John Ensign is an adulter.
His wife likely sleeps around too.The Ensign kids deserve a better home
The Ensigns are immoral
Why is this news?
I like Harry but it doesn't matter. His time is over.
Harry Reid has done more for the benefit of Nevada than any other elected official to represent this state.
50 years of marriage to same women (that started as a high school romance) is living proof of his integrity. No adultery in his line! His Character is as strong as the historical values of Nevada.
Of course the revisionist Republicans will be coming out with a new spin next week that Gibbon's, Ensign, Sanford, et al where never really married, so their actions could not be called adultery.
You have a bunch of wannabe candidates for the Republicans up against Harry Reid next year, but just want expertise do they bring to the table. Will we elect another Republican who will turn Nevadans into the laughing stock of the country?
Thanks for your years of public service Senator Reid.
This is news?
The Sun reads like one giant Harry Reid press release.
Yes, thank you, Senator Reid, for your years of (self) service. Now leave.
50 years of Harry? That woman must be really tough or comatose!
