"Dingy" Harry Reid, former Democrat Senate Majority Leader and Mafia stooge, has passed away.

Reid was a partisan hack who started the end of the filibuster, among other things. He was also a huge obstructionist. I won't say he'll be missed.

BUT some have been gleefully consigning him to Hell. That is just wrong. I do not wish anyone damnation - it's forever. No matter how much suffering a person caused in this life that suffering ended. Hell doesn't end.

I don't know where Mr. Reid is now. He may be in Purgatory, he may be in Hell. Ours is not to question. Justice will be served. But we should all say a prayer for his soul.

That said, we can still remember what a bad guy he was. There is no reason for faux sincerity.

I wrote this a long time ago, while Harry was Senate Minority Leader:

A Harry Reiding

Scary Harry quite contrary
How does your party grow?
With sleaze that sells, and rotten smells And filibusters of our foe.
