Senate Minority Leader Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) said Tuesday the country must “look forward, not backwards” on issues regarding ‘LBJs.’
During a news conference, Reid continued, “And I’m satisfied that we’ve made a lot of progress with issues relating to LBJ – lesbian, gay, anyway. What are the letters?” said Reid, who is expected to retire after the November 2016 election.
As CNSNews.com reports, Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) then spoke to Reid who apparently didn’t hear her. “What is it?” he repeated.
“LGBT,” said Sen. Chuck Schumer, finally.
“Well, just what I was going to say,” Reid responded. “I – “
“We’ve made progress with LBJ also,” Schumer quipped.
“That play was terrific,” Reid congratulated Schumer. “But anyway, the point is this. We’ve made a lot of progress, but we need to look forward. And is there more progress we’re going to need? Of course there is. But I’m not going to re-argue what went on years ago. I think we should look at where we are now and how far we need to go in the future.”
When a reporter asked whether Reid would discuss his recent meeting with House Speaker Boehner, Reid started to reply, “No – I met with him – ” and then proceeded to end the news conference.
“Ask LBJ,” Schumer joked at the reporter.
“And BLT,” someone else chimed in.
“At the A & P,” another added.
