Harry Reid has recently come under fire for a comment he said about president Obama. Republican senators Michael Steele and Mitch McConnell have called for the Democrat to step down, and saying there a “double standard.” “What’s interesting here, is when Democrats get caught saying racist things, an apology is enough. If that had been [Senate Minority Leader] Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) saying that about an African-American candidate for president of the president of the United States, trust me, this chairman and the [Democratic National Committee] would be screaming for his head, very much as they were with Trent Lott.” Lott lost his leadership post in 2002 after saying that the country would have been better off if Sen. Strom Thurmond — a segregationist — had been elected president in 1948. Wow really they are trying to compare the two comments, one is saying the country should of stayed segregated so it would become a country like Haiti. The other is just stating the country is not ready for a 100% black man. Obama was perfect for the job, a half white and black man, and to tell you the truth Obama is not black enough for most people. Most people of color usually says he's just George Bush with a darker tint. Michael Steele needs to go sit down somewhere, because what Reid said isn't even that serious, its true. What they need to worry about though is how they going to get their party back in order. They have shown no interest in getting the country back on track, all they want to do is talk about what Obama is doing wrong.
