When are Democrats going to reprimand Robert Ford (D-SC) for saying the same thing?


Apparently, they have....from your article:

"He was immediately scorned by black leaders as well as state Republicans and Democrats, and called on to apologize, but the five-term senator stuck by his comments. He said his remarks taken in full context were not intended to single out blacks for having a poor work ethic."

An official reprimand will have to be done by the state legislature. But you know.....its a southern state. God knows what will happen officially.
