Senator Reid’s Comments Racist, Or Just Strategem By G.O.P.

Recently, there has been uproar in the political community, about Senator Harry Reid’s insensitive comments regarding President Barack Obama’s ethnicity.

Republicans claim that prior to Obama’s inauguration, Reid had stated that Obama could be the first African-American President because he was “light-skinned” and did not talk with a “negroe dialect”.

Republicans are asking for Reid to step down and resign as Senator, claiming that his remarks were racist and hurtful.

True, Reid’s comments were insensitive and should have not been made by a man in such a position as the Senator of Nevada, but the fact that the G.O.P. brought it to the attention of the world nearly two years after the fact, shows the true nature of their attack on the democrats.

The WWF he said, she said, game, has always been used in the political arena, but to bring up an incident so long after it had occured, shows the strategy of the G.O.P., in how they truly want the democratic party to collapse from the top down.

If republicans would have made a big deal about this, when it had happened, prior to the Obama presidency, as opposed to now, when the president’s ratings have declined, only shows the true nature of republicans in how they enjoy “kicking a man(well, President), while he’s down”, and causing chaos in the democratic community is what republicans live for.
