Joe Biden's "can't work at a 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts unless you have an Indian accent"?

The KKK Wizard Robert Byrd's "white n!ggers" comments?

Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton...even Jesse Jackson can be a prominent Democrat who is on record with racist remarks and still have their jobs or their stature of power in the party. Even President Obama himself has made many campaign remarks a lot of people have taken as racist or race-baiting.



When a Republican makes a similar or even less-offensive comment regarding race, they're run out of town by the media and usually, their colleagues in the GOP. When a Dem does it, it's always "much ado about nothing".
I'll give you some of that.. but some of those people do not hold office either. It must suck sitting there hearing a Dem say something that a Republican WANTS to say, but can't.
