Washington is on fire about the book that I used to cite information about John Edwards yesterday. According to the book, "Game change," Harry Reid said that Barack Obama's light skin was advantageous and he "didn't have a negro dialect... unless he wanted to."
Now many people want Reid to resign because they believe that the remarks are "racially insensitive."
I don't want him to resign because he made such remarks. Maybe Al Sharpton is right-- maybe his favorable record with the NAACP should cause people to dismiss such remarks.
I want him to resign BECAUSE HE IS A FUCKING. MORON.
What thoughtful person who is in such a position of power would make such statements? It's indicative of Reid's track record as Senate majority leader. In addition to moronic wording, he has never missed an opportunity to repeat the Republican party's talking points.
Also, according to the book Bill Clinton said to the late, great Ted Kennedy, "Obama would be serving us coffee a few years ago." When Kennedy endorsed Obama, Clinton said, "the only reason you are endorsing him is because he's black. Let's just be clear." Let's just use this paragraph as reason #4,533 why I hate the Clinton family.
