Drudge uses Harry Reid's foot in mouth as an excuse to call President Obama "the Negro"

Sure Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) messed up when he referred to President Obama as a "light-skinned" African American "with no Negro dialect," during the campaign, but it is doubtful that he called Obama 'the "Negro"' as Matt Drudge implied with the following headline:



Just remember it is Drudge who is calling President Obama "the Negro," not Senator Reid, whose reference to "Negro dialect" is bad, but no where as offensive as what Drudge did by implying that he called Obama "the Negro."

Make no mistake this nothing but blatant race baiting on Drudge's part by using Reid's words as an EXCUSE to call President Obama "the Negro." This is an attempt to make an embarrassing and unfortunate situation worse but exploiting the volatile issue of race and trying to drive a wedge between the Majority Leader, the President and the African American community.

Don't be surprised that if in the following days Drudge's racists co-horts Brietbart, Limbaugh, Beck, Hannity and others all use Reid's words as an excuse to refer to the President as "the Negro."

Senator Reid, understanding his mistake showed contrition by issuing a statement expressing his regret for his poor choice of words, however what the hell is Drudge's excuse?

He is a racist scumbug!

Unfortunately Drudge is not accountable to ANYONE. His advertisers? Many of them share his unabashed ignorance and most likely applaud his race baiting.

Folks, Matt Drudge is nothing but a GOD DAMNED RACIST flame thrower. He needs to be called out. Won't you join us.

2. Republicans are racist crackers -- Nothing new
Drudge was supporting the pro-rape repukes a few weeks ago too. Slimy little turd.
