"A Big Waste of Time"

Harry Reid is not my favorite politician. He's far too mousy and milquetoast for my taste, more often too willing to play Washingtonian political games than he is to fight to the finish for democratic ideals. But this has to be one of the more brutally succinct smack-downs in the history of the US Senate:
Moments after Cruz concluded his remarks, which were limited in time by Senate rules due to a procedural vote that was already scheduled, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) regained control of the floor and proclaimed the effort made by the junior senator from Texas "a big waste of time."
