TOP DEMOCRAT Defends Reid for “Negro” Remark

[busybody..]

Nothing else needs to be said!

It does not matter what Reid had said in reference to Obama's skin color. Persons are offended by the terms 'African-American', Negro, Black, coloured,light skinned, 1/2 white, etc..
You cannot use any universal phrase of any sort whatsoever these days without someone somewhere digging back and creating some sort of drama. The ONLY reasons Republicans want his resignation is because it makes them look good (or so they think).

Perhaps the senator should not have said what he said in the manner he said it. Perhaps he should have stayed silent on the matter. The harsh reality of it all is that Reid was indeed correct in his assumptions.

60 Minutes ignores it!

Only Reid, or does that apply to everyone?

No it isn't about Reid. It's about hypocrisy.

I noted that President Obama issued a statement forgiving Harry Reid before the ink had even dried on the pages of the book. Yet it took him three days to figure out what to say about the guy who tried to blow up that plane on Christmas Day.

Second, according to the reporting, Reid made those statements to "a group of reporters."

Whoa! Check, please!

To a group of reporters? None of whom thought this was newsworthy? For whom did those reporters write, "My Weekly Reader"? If not evidence of a double standard, then it is certainly evidence of journalistic incompetence.

Third, Harry Reid is a Mormon, which has not been noted in any of the reporting I've looked at in between fumbles, interceptions, and missed field goals in the NFL playoffs.

I don't care a whit about that, but you might remember that being a Mormon was a pretty big deal when reporters were writing about Mitt Romney in 2008.

It turns out that the Church of Latter Day Saints was a little behind the political correctness curve when it came to race relations in that it wasn't until 1978 that Blacks were given full membership rights.

If Romney had used the phrases "light-skinned" and "Negro dialect" his religion and his religion's history in this matter would have been noted high up in every story.

Thank you. I stand corrected.

In all fairness, Biden also thinks Obama is clean and articulate.

I deserve to be slapped down often when debating politics. When it comes to politics, I have no idea WTF is going on.

The only difference between you and politicians is you admit you don't know WTF is going on.
