Gotta Agree With Ferraro On This One
Geraldine Ferraro, the 1984 Democratic Vice-Failure, said of Barack: "If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept." It's true. Barack is a handsome, pleasant-voiced, smooth-talker whose charming allure makes you REALLY want to take him up on his attractive offers until you realize - perhaps too late - that there's a... downside... to what you're agreeing to. Since he's black, he's a presidential contender for the Democrats. Were he white, there's a broader - though less prestigious - range of career opportunities he'd be more likely to engage in: * Pre-owned vehicle acquisition facilitator. * Guest on a real estate infomercial fake talk show. * Leader of a quirky religious movement that invests heavily in rat poison and powdered drink mixes before investing heavily in one-way tickets to a small, South American country. * Cannibal from Milwaukee. * Host of a reality TV show who suggests that eating a plateful of raw bull testicles is TOTALLY worth it because you'll have a 1-in-7 shot of getting a 15-minute phone call home if you do. * Client 9 * Wraparound shade-wearing leader of a mediocre Irish rock band who touts letting Third World crapholes default on their loans as "a humanitarian invesment opportunity". * Right wing political humor blogger offering "free" T-shirts. * Quarterback of a Massachusetts-based professional football team, leading his team to a "perfect" season. * Being John Edwards. Anything else Barack-lite might be doing for a living? 22 Responses To "Gotta Agree With Ferraro On This One"
* Televangelist married to a white woman who wears way too much makeup. * The only true conservative blogger who's still got his panties in a wad over the defeat of Gay Marriage amendments. * AMWAY... #2 - Posted by: FormerHostage on March 13, 2008 12:42 PMFerraro neglected to point out, though, that if Hillary wasn't married to Bill Clinton, she would not be in this position. #3 - Posted by: Ed Flinn on March 13, 2008 12:49 PMEd, never EVER use the phrases "Bill Clinton" and "in this position" in the same sentence!!! #4 - Posted by: FormerHostage on March 13, 2008 12:58 PMIf he put on a mexican outfit and said "Hola" while winking, he could sell fiesta platters!! #5 - Posted by: Ringmaster on March 13, 2008 12:58 PMInsurance Salesman Three card monty expert Representative for a Nigerian millionaire seeking to hide his wealth (in your bank account. You're just that famous and well known in Nigeria...) E-meter operator #6 - Posted by: Raving Lunatic on March 13, 2008 01:11 PMGiving condom lectures w/free samples at middle schools for Planned Parenthood. #7 - Posted by: Jimmy on March 13, 2008 01:16 PMDoor to door magazine subscription kid Men's fragrance demonstrator at Sak's 5th Ave. #8 - Posted by: TerribleTroy on March 13, 2008 01:28 PMCurrently unemployed humor blogger for a quirky site that deals with guns, monkeys, and...uh...errr... never mind. #9 - Posted by: FormerHostage on March 13, 2008 01:49 PMTrial lawyer- May God have mercy on his soul #10 - Posted by: Brian The Adequate on March 13, 2008 02:03 PMHe could compete with SarahK to be a T-Shirt Babe. Oh wait, that was Edwards. #11 - Posted by: cptnmoroni on March 13, 2008 02:12 PMThis makes me wonder, if he weren't black, would Joe Biden still think he was clean and articulate? I read blogs from all over the political spectrum, and Ferraro's quote was the source of much consternation on Daily Kos... But one commenter had it perfectly stated - Ferraro is right, Obama wouldn't be where he is, he'd be the nominee... a well-spoken white guy versus some crazy nut woman? Come on. #13 - Posted by: refreshingapathy on March 13, 2008 03:15 PMIf Barack were white he would be Jimmah Carter, but that job is already taken. Barack Obama, half the man Jimmah Carter is. As far as we know. #14 - Posted by: Dohtimes on March 13, 2008 06:04 PMHe'd be a failed science fiction writer, turned indescribably successful leader of a vauge speechin', cash suckin', couch jumpin' on, Xenu believin', talkin' for 3 hours and still sayin' nothin', cerebrum scrubbin', alien huggin', cult bein' "religion" #15 - Posted by: hordog on March 13, 2008 09:11 PMDepends what the definition of " that position" is. Or for that matter what the defination of "is" is. Me thinks Geraldine wants to be in Hillaman's position. Not under, beside, or on top of billbo, but on top of the world in her own mind. #16 - Posted by: GregVolk on March 14, 2008 03:32 AMObama gets 92% of the black vote in Mississippi Let's hope that history records her truthful comments as the beginning of the end of black victimology - for their sake - er - and ours too. #17 - Posted by: on March 14, 2008 04:57 AMIt seems to me that what Ferraro did was finally break the weaponof political correctness -she spoke the truth -we all should, without worrying about the attacksfrom the left, if we value our freedom. Freedom to speak, taken away by a government is a travesty -freedom of speech voluntarily given up because of our pride, is voluntary suicide. #18 - Posted by: Don L on March 14, 2008 05:06 AMDON'T BE DUPED!!! Large numbers of Republicans have been voting for Barack Obama in the DEMOCRATIC primaries, and caucuses. Because they feel he would be a weaker opponent against John McCain. And because they feel that a Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ticket would be unbeatable. And also because with a Clinton and Obama ticket you are almost 100% certain to get quality, affordable universal health care very soon. But first, all of you have to make certain that Hillary Clinton takes the democratic nomination and then the Whitehouse. NOW! is the time. THIS! is the moment you have all been working, and waiting for. You can do this America. “Carpe diem” (harvest the day). I think Hillary Clinton see’s a beautiful world of plenty, and comfort for all. She is a woman, and a mother. And it’s time America. Do this for your-self, and your children’s future. You will have to work together on this and be aggressive, relentless, and creative. Americans face an even worse catastrophe ahead than the one you are living through now. You see, the medical and insurance industry mostly support the republicans with the money they ripped off from you. And they don’t want you to have quality, affordable universal health care. They want to be able to continue to rip you off, and kill you and your children by continuing to deny you life saving medical care that you have already paid for. So they can continue to make more immoral profits for them-self. Hillary Clinton has actually won by much larger margins than the vote totals showed. And lost by much smaller vote margins than the vote totals showed. Her delegate count is actually much higher than it shows. And higher than Obama’s. HILLARY CLINTON IS ALREADY THE TRUE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE! As much as 30% of Obama's primary, and caucus votes are Republicans trying to choose the weakest democratic candidate for McCain to run against. These Republicans have been gaming the caucuses where it is easier to vote cheat. This is why Obama has not been able to win the BIG! states primaries. Even with Republican vote cheating help. Hillary Clinton has been out manned, out gunned, and out spent 2 and 3 to 1. Yet Obama has only been able to manage a very tenuous, and questionable tie with Hillary Clinton. If Obama is the democratic nominee for the national election in November he will be slaughtered. Because the Republican vote cheating help will suddenly evaporate. All of this vote fraud and republican manipulation has made Obama falsely look like a much stronger candidate than he really is. YOUNG PEOPLE. DON’T BE DUPED! Think about it. You have the most to lose. The democratic party needs to fix this outrage. I suggest a Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ticket now! Everyone needs to throw all your support to Hillary Clinton NOW! So you can end this outrage against YOU the voter, and against democracy. I think Barack Obama has a once in a life time chance to make the ultimate historic gesture for unity, and change in America by accepting Hillary Clinton’s offer as running mate. Such an act now would for ever seal Barack Obama’s place at the top of the list of Americas all time great leaders, and unifiers for all of history. But the time to act is soon. The democratic party, and the super-delegates have a decision to make. Are the democrats, and the democratic party going to choose the DEMOCRATIC party nominee to fight for the American people. Or are the republicans going to choose the DEMOCRATIC party nominee through vote fraud, and gaming the DEMOCRATIC party primaries, and caucuses. Fortunately the Clinton’s have been able to hold on against this fraudulent outrage with those repeated dramatic comebacks of Hillary Clinton’s. Only the Clinton’s are that resourceful, and strong. Hillary Clinton is your NOMINEE. They are the best I have ever seen. “This is not a game” (Hillary Clinton) Sincerely jacksmith... #19 - Posted by: jacksmith on March 14, 2008 09:40 AMSome one missed their Prosac. Any one who sees Hillary Clinton as a "Savior" obviously hasn't done much research. Follow the bodies my friend. You get in the way of the Clintons you end up taking a dirt nap, you become an x-person, bereft of life, you rest sometimes in pieces. You have shuffled off this mortal coil and joined the blooming choir invisible. Hillary is the Devil's bride, it's just that simple. #20 - Posted by: seanmahair on March 14, 2008 10:32 AMCBS "news" reporter Host (judge? What are those clowns called, anyway?) on American Idol Mayor of San Francisco Professor of English, Political Science, or anything with the word "studies" in its name at virtually any university NFL team owner Lieutenant governor (John Kerry was one, I can't name California's, and you probably can't name the one for your state either, can you?) #21 - Posted by: Silicon Valley Jim on March 14, 2008 11:05 AMI was soooo gonna mention the John Edwards things. If Obama wasn't the black candidate, he'd be the closet candidate. #22 - Posted by: Marvin on March 16, 2008 01:24 PMPost a comment
