I understood the context in which the statement was made, but if anyone was being
intellectually lazy, it was Bennett. He is a public figure, and should know to phrase things better, or not say anything at all. It's cannon fodder to his political opponents, and was incredibly stupid on his part. I agree with NA- if he had to say anything, it should have been a general comment, not one regarding a specific race. Stupid, stupid ,stupid........ Not unlike Mrs. Bush's comment regarding the current residents of the Astrodome. Btw, she's certainly keeping a low profile lately.
