Move over Truman, I have a new slogan for Senator Reid: "What The Hell Harry?"

No he "DIDN'T" actually say IT, did he?

During this last historic Presidential campaign, Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, and the Democratic Senate Majority Leader, said Barack Obama's chances for winning the highest office in the land were "pretty good" because "white Americans were ready for someone light-skinned who spoke with no Negro dialect."

The new revelations are being reported in the new book called "Game Change" by political correspondents Mark Halperin and John Heilemann.

"I deeply regret using such a poor choice of words," Reid said in a statement. "I sincerely apologize for offending any and all Americans, especially African Americans, for my improper comments."

Okay, OF course he is going to say that in response to this national uproar.

President Obama graciously accepted Harry Reid's apology. "I've known him for years, I've seen the passionate leadership he's shown on issues of social justice and I know what's in his heart. As far as I am concerned, the book is closed."

But, what if Harry Reid was THE REPUBLICAN LEADER of the US Senate instead of the main guy in charge of the MAJORITY DEMOCRATIC PARTY who happens to be a couple of heart beats away from being the ACTUAL President of the US of A?

This one chapter Halperin's new book shows the ugly side of race politics in America.

I am so glad that I am "color blind." I you follow this Blog and my life, you know that I am totally blind in my right eye, and have only 40% of my vision remaining in my left eye.

How many other Americans actually think the same way Harry Reid does?

The only difference is, Harry Reid got caught saying it.

For that reason alone, our America conversation on "race" continues on and on and on.

What are your thoughts?
Should Harry Reid resign from the Senate?

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
