What Harry Reid Said. What I heard.

In a nutshell, Senator Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada said that Obama was an acceptable candidate for President because he was a light skinned black and only spoke with a Negro dialect when he wanted to.

However, this is what I hear: Harry Reid said that people that speak with a Negro dialect would be unable to be elected to President. Harry Reid says that the following people would not be acceptable as President of the United States because they are darker skinned:

Senators

Roland Burress (D-Illinois) - though I don't think he belongs there in the first place

Congressmen

Elijah Cummings (D- Maryland)
Jim Clyburn (D-South Carolina)
Al Green (D-Texas)
Charles Rangel (D-New York) - though he belongs in jail for his voluminous ethics violations
Bennie Thompson (D-Mississippi)
Hank Johnson (D-Georgia)

And the list goes on and on. So where's the outrage? Of course the only outrage you'll find is coming from Fox News and the Republicans. The apologist networks like ABC, CBS, MSNBC are allowing Harry Reid to pass go and collect $200. MSNBC leads the story with Obama defending Reid. Dude - he just gave you a backhanded compliment. That's okay???

We all know that if a Republican had said this, he would have been forced to resign and he'd probably be in jail right now. Does anyone else find it ironic that the political party that cries 'racist' can itself be racist and it's okay?

I think Harry Reid would be an acceptable ex-Senator because he's a lying, deceitful, racist, bigotted, self-serving, old white man.
