Reid is trying to play word games because he is wrong, and he knows it.

This is called arguing by definition and it is a common tactic of the left. When someone gets wise to their BS and calls them on it, they begin contesting the terms used to describe said BS.

Everyone remembers Bill Clinton’s meaning of the word “is” charade. Reid is just playing the same game.

The trap that this interviewer fell into, which is a common one when honest people deal with leftists, was that he assumed Reid was acting and speaking in good faith.
