Geraldine Ferraro Says

If Obama was a black woman, he'd be shit out of luck in life. And once again the media goes nuts. Apparently what that means is something about racial appointments and stuff.

" 'Any time anybody does anything that in any way pulls this campaign down and says let's address reality and the problems we're facing in this world, you're accused of being racist, so you have to shut up,' Ferraro said. 'Racism works in two different directions. I really think they're attacking me because I'm white. How's that?'...

"Ferraro said she was simply stating an obvious truth, as seen in exit polls that show Obama taking as much as 80 percent of the black vote in the Democratic primaries.

" 'In all honesty, do you think that if he were a white male, there would be a reason for the black community to get excited for a historic first?' Ferraro said. 'Am I pointing out something that doesn't exist?'


If you're black you vote for Obama, you are a racist. See no need to call her remarks racist or to have Hilary use a strong word like reject or denounce.
