Racist is racist, regardless of degree and we don't need people who think that way in powerful positions making decisions that affect real Americans.
Good luck trying to defend the indefensible. The good news for the rest of the county is that Reid will be out either in weeks or months, personally I am hoping for weeks!

reid's comment was essentially that white voter's were more likely to vote for obama because he was light skinned and spoke in a way familiar to them. it was impolitic for him to mention to a reporter that we're not ready to elect snoop president.
how is that the same as wishing the last 6 decades of racial progress never happened?
