Harry Reid is human, and he shouldn't have used the term "Negro dialect," but he is a brave, canny guy who's doing his best under tough circumstances to get us a health reform bill and make President Obama's presidency stronger.
He is a fine man, and the Republicans are just trying to use some off-hand dumb remark he made, that has nothing to do with who he really is, to try to derail the health reform bills, to weaken the Democratic majority in the Senate, and to cripple Obama's presidency.
We folks here have had our disagreements with Reid about policy and strategy, but I hope we will unite in support of him against the Republican Hate Machine.
