Talk like that could land Harry as the next Dem VP.
Since he is a lib: No Harm, No Foul
If Sheets Byrd wasn’t forced to resign for saying the “n-word” twice on a cable news program, then I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for Hairy Greed to resign.
Reid said he has been a proud and enthusiastic supporter of Obama and has throughout his career worked to promote adversity in his home state of Nevada and in the Senate.
unintentional truth alert.
Admitted cocaine and pot user, Barack 0bama, is clean, articulate, light-skinned and doesn’t speak in the negro dialect unless he wants to. What’s not to like? Even a pasty-faced northeastern liberal could vote for him. - DNC talking points memo circa 2007
Harry only used demeaning "minstrel show" racial stereotypes to refer to a black, sitting U.S. Senator and Presidential candidate.
It's not like he did anything that rises to the level of a resigning offense! You know, really bad stuff, like uttering a nonsense word, "macaca," or referring favorably to an inconsequential political contest and party from the 1940's!
He meant to say "thin skinned".
If you’re a dem and/or African American, the rules are different.
I would suggest to the Republicans to inform the American people quite loudly of the Democrats plan that is the current incumbents plan on pushing a massive socialist agenda then those that are unable to win their campaigns will bail out and let a more supposed moderate member run for their election.
Its time to Paint every Socialist that voted for Govt Healthcare Takeover and Govt Stimulus payoffs as no different then any of their Counterparts. All the Rats are the same it is blatantly obvious they are rubber stamping Obama’s Bankruptcy of America agenda.
I wonder what Obama promised Ried to get him to say this.

Obama in ‘02: ‘The Republican Party itself has to drive out Trent Lott’
Illinois Senator Barack Obama (D-13th), who hosted WVON’s Cliff Kelley Show, challenged the Republican Party to repudiate Lott’s remarks and to call for his resignation as senate leader.
“It seems to be that we can forgive a 100-year-old senator for some of the indiscretion of his youth, but, what is more difficult to forgive is the current president of the U.S. Senate (Lott) suggesting we had been better off if we had followed a segregationist path in this country after all of the battles and fights for civil rights and all the work that we still have to do,” said Obama.
He said: “The Republican Party itself has to drive out Trent Lott. If they have to stand for something, they have to stand up and say this is not the person we want representing our party.”
The funny thing is that if he had said the exact opposite, he would have to appologize for that, too.
Par for the course from the same party that gave you slavery and Jim Crow laws!
Al Sharpton has already forgiven him and is lavishly praising him and saying this should be forgotten.
Well good thing he didn’t say something racist like Maccaca!
Yes, he does have the dialect. It comes out when he needs it when he is speaking to blacks.
this is freakin hilarious to me...Not the statement..but the liberals’ reactions. Just yesterday among the Liberal websites this book was a hit - you know because of Schmitty’s story about Palin saying O’biden. Different tune today on those same webpages. HAHAAAA HAHHHHHHHHHHH
