Harry Reid, Race, And How He's Not Trent Lott
Reid: Are we still cool?
Obama: Sure, but you're still not getting re-elected.
Reid: Fiddlesticks.When it comes to Harry Reid's recent racial remark, critics are either ready to pardon him or hang him. The authors of Game Change included a racially insensitive remark that Harry Reid made concerning Barack Obama during the presidential election. Reid told the authors that Obama had a good chance of winning the election because he was "light-skinned" and spoke with "no negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one."
Democrats are ready to forgive and forget while Republicans want to string him up, claiming his pardon is a double standard. On NBC's "Today" show, Senator John McCain said there has been a "stunning double standard as far as the treatment of Sen. Lott, who also made unfortunate and inopportune remarks, and the treatment of Harry Reid by the liberal left."
First and foremost, Reid's remarks were stupid. I mean really stupid.
