Reid also accused the Republican party of because Strom Thurmond supported segregation. The flaw with his moronic statement was that Thurmond ran as a DEMOCRAT.
Reid deserves all the criticism he is getting.

Opposing healthcare may be racist if you are opposing it because you don't want to use taxpayer money to help black people. I don't really care who Reid accuses of being racist. That is NOT what we have been discussing. As for what party Strom Thurmond ran under for president, it was a REPUBLICAN (ie Lott) who waxed poetically about the fact that he lost. In actuality, he ran as a Dixiecrat, anyway. Harry Truman was the Democratic candidate. Check your facts. Thank you.
