Holy Cow: Harry Reid Says Obama is Like The Chilean Miners
Posted on October 18, 2010 by jeffdunetz

Only a politician disconnected from the real world could make this kind of analogy. Yesterday on a campaign stop he compared President Obama to the miners who were stuck underground in Chile for seventy days. (see video)

“It was like the Chilean miners, but he, being the man he is, rolled up his sleeves and said ‘I am going to get us out of this hole,’â€

The panel then goes on to compare the Chilean response to the Democrats reaction to the recent BP oil spill.

Its interesting that the Chilean Government faced a crisis and relied on the free market to successfully solve the problem. The United States, which is supposed to be the home of free-market capitalism relied on the Government for the inept BP oil spill cleanup.

Help from many countries was refused.
