October 19, 2015 --

A New York Times "News Analysis," October 9, quoted Senator Reid as referring to the "'utter chaos'" in the House of Representatives, following House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy's decision not to seek the House speakership. McCarthy's decision was the lead story in the Times, October 9 carrying this headline: "McCarthy Withdraws/From Speaker's Race/Putting House in Chaos."

The article's lead paragraph reported that McCarthy's decision threw the "already tumultuous [House] chamber into deeper chaos...." LPR has since seen several references to House "chaos." Following instruction of " Democratic" Reid?
