I saw it too and I accurately presented it here.
In your version, the fact that he thought he was presenting a rationale for rejecting NIH funding not only doesn't make it better but also screams hypocrisy.
If you're suggesting that Reid was speaking to Schumer when he said what he said then that's very very much of a stretch ... your av was always more honest than that.
If it screams hypocrisy, that is fine, because in a way, it does. That is not what Fox News wanted you to gleam from his comments or any subsequent comment from Bash which came after the airing of the exchange. He wanted you to think his first reaction was dismiss the children out of hand.
I was stating that he was going to reiterate what Schumer and Durbin had already said.
