REID: We have other things to do that are extremely important. We have to make sure we complete work on the DREAM Act….If the House completes work on Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, we’ll have to work on that….We are going to complete the work we have to do here. I want to get out of here just as soon as we can, but we’re not going to walk away from any of the work we have to do. Christmas is a week from Saturday, I understand that, but I hope the Republicans understand that also. Because we are going to complete our work no matter how long it takes in this Congress. We have to do the work of the American people…You know, there is still Congress after Christmas. So if the Republicans think that because they can stall and stall and stall that we take a break we’re through, we’re not through. Congress ends on January 4th. So we’re going to continue working on this stuff until we get it done.
