Harry Reid Slammed By Hometown Paper For ‘Race-Baiting’

The largest newspaper in Nevada is taking Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to task, saying that the Democrat’s recent comments about Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas highlight a pattern of race card rhetoric.

“Harry Reid is the da Vinci of distraction,” reads the editorial from the Las Vegas Review-Journal, which was posted online Friday.

“The moment any scandal, policy failure or political defeat crashes down on him — and there have been plenty the past few years — the Senate majority leader unleashes outrageous rhetoric,” the editorial continues, adding that Reid “has become especially fond of slinging race cards just to crank up the outrage.”

[South40]

Reid has been guilty of race-baiting for as long as jug ears has been in office. What took so long for the media to take notice and/or mention it?

[MichaelCorleone]

Race card rhetoric. Good one, Mr. Ross.

[MUDDOG]

Who knew? Clarence Thomas is white.

[Lawgvr1955]

Back in ‘08 didn’t Reid in trying to find something positive to say about candidate Obama say that Obama didn’t have a “Negro dialect” unless he wanted to use one, or something similar? He is the antithesis of MLK’s colorless society. Racist.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Reid is such a lowlife scumbag. If it weren’t for the union thugs in Vegas, I don’t think Reid would ever win an election.

[South40]

Reid said Obama was "a light-skinned African-American with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one."

That would have been a career ending comment had Reid been a member of the GOP.

Senator Palpatine, you look a little pallid...

[South40]

Reid is worthless as a human being. He wins elections because the unions poor untold millions in to his campaigns.

[South40]

lol!

[South40]

Who knew? Clarence Thomas is white.

We are in a time when the mere mention of race is politically incorrect. All one need do to verify that is mention that someone is black. But Reid knows he gets a pass because he and the media are in the same camp. That's what makes this article so incredibly unbelievable.

Does anyone really take that mealy-mouthed mob-connected worm seriously?

[tumblindice]

Harry’s always a great sport about such ribbing.

[TigersEye]

LOL

[realcleanguy]

Well, it’s true, Harry Reid is really a racist and a sexist. He really hates women and he degrades Blacks and Hispanics

[CharlesOConnell]

“Never mind that Sen. Reid himself, like the entire Senate Democratic leadership, is as white as an Irishman in a snowstorm.”

Hey, I resemble that remark. Growing up sharkbait white in Beach Boy southern California, while all our friends tanned at the beach, we could only sunburn.

[reefdiver]

Just like Holder

[Cubs Fan]

I wonder how long it will be before the IRS audit or the Holder justice department “investigation” of this paper?

[South40]

I think at minimum the editorial staff can expect to be audited.

Dingy needs to be SLAMMED with a base ball bat upside that ugly gourd.
Along with several others in the ZERO administration with ZERO the first.
