Harry Scarey

Harry Reid, Senate Majority Leader and isolated white male from Nevada, apologizes for racial remarks.

Reid said he believed the nation was ready to "embrace a black presidential candidate such as Obama" because Obama was "light-skinned and had no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one." Reid was convinced, in fact, that Obama's race would help him more than hurt him in a bid for the Democratic nomination.

Obama accepted Reid's apology stating he has known Reid for years, etc. etc. But pols claim to know one another for years simply because they rub elbows in the halls of D.C. and patronize the same clubs, restaurants, dinner parties, spas, brothels.

To put this another way, Reid was saying he feared most token-minded Democrats would vote for a light-skinneded darkie who can talk like a white person when he wants to. Ironic. Reid, a member of the political party that has worked long and hard to shackle us with political correctness - doesn't do it correctly.
