Reid apologizes for 'no Negro dialect' comment - Yahoo! News

Thank you for apologizing to me and the rest of voting America Senator Reid. I wont forget what you said but I will forgive you for saying it in the way that you did.

"I deeply regret using such a poor choice of words. I sincerely apologize for offending any and all Americans, especially African-Americans for my improper comments,"

I didn't need an apology and am now mad that I've been offered one.

It was and it shoudln't have take Reid so long to realize he needed to apologize to everyone. But better late than not at all.....time to move on for me.

We could have lost an entire state to a disaster in the past news cycle and everyone would have missed it because they were obsessing over Reid's remarks.

Maybe you could get Ronald Reagan to apologize for being a fucktard hater that spent a gazzillion dollars on pipe dreams?

Well, Ravi, this is one of those things like when white people tell Black people who their leaders ought to be, or that those they are drawn to aren't "acceptable..."

This is a case of White folks getting offended FOR Black people, patronizing in the extreme. Oh well, on the other side of it, some (many) have no clue about what Black people say about them when they are not around either...

It is also funny, sometimes, because many White people cannot always tell who self-identifies as "African-American" heritage, because all do not exactly look like what others think fits their idea of African-American.... Interesting what some folks will say when they think "folks" aren't around to hear!

Harry just told a truth that some people are embarassed to have out in the open and there for the whole world to see!

Airing the laundry in front of others will get a person whipped on, LOL....

Well...to be fair, Hillary said something similar and Obama's campaign crucified her for it.

Contessa you REALLY REALLY need to change your "Accuracy" comment once again.

You are still missing what the point was...i wasn't offended for black people because of harry reid, I was personally offended as a white voting man by his comments.

Sorry if I dont fit into your pre-determined talking point box on this subject.

And its mute now anyway, Reid apologized to ALL of america.

 

[Sherry]

Such a humble and sincere man.

 

[PLYMCO_PILGRIM]

For some reason your avatar has me thinking that post was sarcastic

 

[Lost Soul]

So where are all the democrats whining and crying for Reid to step down because he is a racist?

Just because YOU don't vote that way does not mean that others do not vote that way, and with tight races, EVERYTHING MATTERS, even taking into account the freaks who go appearance (literally), over substance. Pols do get that, even if you do not. Remember when Bush pulled that thing in the Carolinas about McCain supposely having a black child and the way that played out!

We live in a racist country, and that is the reality. Harry just aired the laundry. Sorry you cannot acknowledge that some of our fellow citizens are less than they really might be!

By the way, that would, if it were, be MOOT, not mute, neither of which are true at this time, LOL....

If I said that men who hit women are assholes are you going to take it personally because you are male, even though you are the sort who would never? Why do you insist on taking personally what is according to you not about you at all? Why take on collective guilt?
