I’ve found it mildly amusing how Republicans and their media have all of a sudden become the champions of all blacks and attack Harry Reid for stating the truth. Even though the vast majority of prominent blacks have little to no problem with what Reid said…

Hear that beautiful sound? That’s the sound of the Republican party grabbing desperately for straw as they gurgle and wheeze for their last dying breath.

Harry Reid said “Obama is light skinned and has no Negro dialect". Every letter, true.
It’s always precarious when anyone of any race says anything about anyone of any other race. That’s why we need to be more open about racial discussions. AG Holder said we were cowards for not talking about race. He wasn’t just referring to whites. He also meant blacks and any other minority who often can’t seem to deal with the topic of race without getting bent out of shape.
We all have to confront this issue. This is not an us-and-them issue. It’s an “us” issue.

Reid, in fact, paid great complement to Barack Obama. It’s sad that an African American with very dark pigmentation would have more trouble getting elected in America than one with lighter skin, but it is true.
Sad but true.
You can also be guaranteed that even I would never vote for anyone, black or white, that walked out and spoke like Kanye West or some similar no-English-respecting idiot.
Obama’s mastery of the English language only makes me respect him. I know what he means when he speaks (even if he speaks out of both sides of his face sometimes).

I have long felt bad for members of the African American race when they have to be labeled with “Negro dialect” due to the stupidity of a few who don’t care what they sound like. I interact with blacks every day here. None of them sound like the jive mumbo jumbo we hear from some thug type on TV.
Though I do have a few white customers that do.

Reid could have used a little more discretion when speaking, but he clearly meant no harm. In fact, the opposite.

The simple difference is that Democrats, especially Liberals, have the courage to come out of the closet on race and have the “Racial” discourse needed to break down barriers.
Republicans, especially conservanoids, prefer the “Racist” discourse that sades their hatred and fear of minority races. They’re also too stupid to know the difference between “Racial” and “Racist". Wasn’t it a FORMER Republican Senator named Allen that liked to call brown people “macacas"?

Here we have John McCain, a leader amongst morons, proving my point.
He claims a “double standard” with Obama etc not being as offended at Reid’s words as they might have been at, say….the words of his fellow moron, Don Imus.

Now let’s see…

Reid said “Obama has no Negro dialect". Imus said “nappy headed hos” when referring to some black female basketball players.

Case in point, the Repigs, in their grotesque ignorance, either can’t tell the difference between calling a President a good speaker and calling some kids fuzzy haired whores, or this is the lamest political ploy they’ve tried yet.

I figure it’s both.

Sad. :no:
