What did Reid say that was so offensive?

Still, to quote President Obama, from another race incident, “this is a teachable moment.” This one doesn’t warrant a beer summit, but it does require serious reflection for the good of our nation.

We are too quick to take offense about race when none was intended. Some are too anxious to manufacture outrage over matters that do not justify the attention that we give them. And we are too quick to politicize race.

As far as I’m concerned, Messrs. Bond, Sharpton, Jackson and a host of other Americans formerly identified as “negroes” have forever forfeited the right to be outraged whenever a Republican or a talk show host makes an inappropriate or “insensitive” racial comment.
