(Facepalm)

Here's Harry Reid, quoted by Jon Ralston of the Las Vegas Sun, via TPM:

...

I am going to go back to Washington and meet with the president of China. He is a dictator. He can do a lot of things through the form of government they have. Maybe I shouldn't have said dictator. But they have a different type of government then we have and that is an understatement.

...
As this was spoken during Hu's official diplomatic visit, I guess this is what passes for diplomacy by Harry Reid. True or not, the statement was unspeakably rude and should never have been made during Hu's visit. I've said it before: it's time for Harry to retire.
