Sen. Coburn: Here’s Why I Called Harry Reid an ‘A**hole’

Coburn Explains on Fox & Friends Why He Called Harry Reid an ‘A**hole’ (Mediaite)

During a Wednesday morning appearance on Fox & Friends, Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn addressed exactly why he referred to his colleague Harry Reid as an “absolute asshole.” Coburn didn’t defend what he said, but he didn’t exactly apologize for it either.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck asked Coburn, “What is it about Harry Reid that makes you so uncomfortable?”

Coburn said that under Reid’s leadership, the Senate is “not doing what it’s supposed to do,” and acknowledged he was in the wrong… but not completely in the wrong.
