WASHINGTON – The top Democrat in the U.S. Senate apologized on Saturday for comments he made about Barack Obama's race during the 2008 presidential bid and are quoted in a yet-to-be-released book about the campaign.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada described in private then-Sen. Barack Obama as "light skinned" and "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one." Obama is the nation's first African-American president.
I'll bet you $2.00 to a dime that this gets no real play in the Lame Stream Media.

Surprizing as it may seem, the Dallas Morning News had a large column on Mr. Reid in today's paper and this topic was discussed.
