Harry Reid, Bill Clinton, and what they said
Last week we learned what Harry Reid and Bill Clinton really think about people of color, and the nation is in a tizzy about racism again. Here’s what they said, according to the book Game Change:
Harry Reid said Barack Obama made a good presidential candidate because he is “light skinned" and speaks "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one."
Bill Clinton, also talking about candidate Obama, was trying to convince Ted Kennedy to endorse Hillary when he said, “A few years ago, this guy would have been getting us coffee.”
Just like what happened in the Henry Gates affair, which I wrote about last July in a column titled “Pipsqueak leftist pseudo-intellectual phony” (my favorite title so far), people are missing the point. This is about class and the elitism of the D.C. establishment, not race. Trouble is, once somebody utters the word “racism” our national IQ seems to diminish and everybody starts sounding like Al Gore in a climate documentary – self-righteous, bloviating, borderline hysterical, and dumb.
