Yes he did. He disparaged african american dialect and used an offensive term.

if he moves his lips, he does. He did apologize , didn't he? He was calling Obama on using race as a matter of affinity.

We all know President Barack Obama would never do such a thing.

Did he say something false?

Yes... otherwise, why did he apologize? His comment reflects an openly racist mind set which was common fifty years ago, not today... mind you, he's the same clown that accused the Republicans of supporting slavery because they're opposed to obama's health care bill... but the reality of history clearly shows that Abraham Lincoln was a Republican and it was the liberals at the time who fought to KEEP slavery intact... this moron reid must go, he's a disgrace to all Americans...

Here are some of harry reid's previous buffoonery comments:

This hari kari reid has a BIG MOUTH...

* His summertime comparison of a lack of health insurance coverage to slavery;
* His April 2007 conclusion that the war in Iraq was lost;
* His description of tea partiers as "evil-mongers"; and
* His pleasure that the Capitol Visitors Center meant he wouldn't have to "smell the tourists" filling up the Capitol in the summertime.

Among some of his finer moments, Reid also declared to the Reno Gazette-Journal in September that Sen. Ted Kennedy's death "is going to help" Democrats pass health care.

Last summer, he told a Fox News reporter to "turn up your hearing aid" at a press conference.

"He called our former president a loser in a high school classroom here in Nevada," Lowden said, referring to a civics class discussion a few months after George W. Bush's second inauguration.

On Saturday, Reid made the rounds asking for forgiveness for his 2008 comment, saying, "I deeply regret using such a poor choice of words."

Do you really have to ask such a question? Don't you see the wrongfulness and offensiveness of such a remark? Does any remark like that belong anywhere under any circumstance today? Are you really saying that you don't see how it reflects a racist and prejudgment attitude?
