By MARK Z. BARABAK
Harry Reid, with history of insensitive comments, apologizes for jokes before Asian Americans in Las Vegas Harry Reid, apologizing for jokes at Asian American function, says 'sometimes I say the wrong thing' Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who has a history of insensitive and off-color remarks, apologized Friday for a pair of jokes he made before the Las Vegas Asian Chamber of Commerce.
“I don’t think you’re smarter than anybody else, but you’ve convinced a lot of us you are,” the Nevada Democrat said to laughter from the audience.
Later in the program, milling onstage as he was introduced to participants, Reid leaned into the microphone and quipped, “One problem that I’ve had today is keeping my Wongs straight.”

Geeze! What a SLOW and LATE Learner.
Did he repeat the “Sum Ting Wong,” “Wi Tu Lo,” “Ho Lee Fuk” and “Bang Ding Ow” joke?
Ok, an attempt at an open source joke.
One rule; NO PUNCH LINES, the idea is to keep the joke going by adding to what has come before you.
Harry Reid, a Mexican, an Asian and a Jew walk into a bar.
Of course Harry Reid will be forgiven by the Mainstream Media since he’s a Progressive. A Conservative would be excoriated.
>> I don’t think you’re smarter than anybody else
Oh, really? Guess Dingy Harry can’t type in “comparative IQ” in a search engine.
The MSM would never let Republicans get way with it
The Bolshies of Nevada need to apologize to America.
Someone got fired for this:
KTVU Reports Asiana Air Pilots Were “Sum Ting Wong” and “Ho Lee Fuk”

But ol’ Harry gets a pass.
Same Joke -
A douche-bag, a Mexican, an Asian and a Jew walk into a bar.
“I don’t think you’re smarter than anybody else, but you’ve convinced a lot of us you are,”
That’s not funny.
Change it to a Republican and he’s condemned for racism. But since it’s a shriveled up old goat of a democrat, they laugh.
I’m sure that the press will hound him out of the Senate, just like they did to Trent Lott.
