I don’t think Barry’s playin’ the race card much - it’s just that it’s pretty much known that he has that card in his hand.

What a joke that society has become. Geraldine told the truth. While many can claim that Obama is the new JFK, there was never this much excitement over JFK. Face it, there is racism involved by blacks and “white guilt.”

I am proud that I do not suffer from White Guilt. Obama is a Hard Socialist and will destroy our wonderful country.

THAT is all that matters.

I don’t think so either. I believe she hit the nail right on the head

Blacks have a built in ADVANTAGE in this country? Get real.

Preferential treatment, under the law, is not an "advantage"?

Obama may not get racial, but his supporters and aides sure do...

We’re not talking about a court of law, though.

We’re talking about the court of PC.

The irony in this is just -- un. freaking. believable.

  1. 'Gerry' wouldn't be where she is if she wasn't a woman.
  2. AND nobody would give a carp what she had to say - if she wasn't the first woman VEEP candidate.
  3. If Hillary wasn't married to BJ, she wouldn't be where she is. She'd be working at a free law clinic in some big city ghetto fighting 'da man'.
So even if what she says is true - she has zero room to talk and is the LAST person to bring it up. Her whole 'new' career was due to affirmative action.

I think Bill’s silence may be tied to Spitzer’s problems more than anything.

But how were Ferraro’s comments racist?

Since she did not heap praise upon him or bow down and worship him, she is obviously a racist./sarc

PC is the greatest gathering threat to free speech in our country today.

racist?

I wouldn’t go that far. Look at it this way, the dems had a white man spouting the same things BO is and where is he? Sitting back on his HUGE estate in NC.

Simple internals and historical polling prove her right. Six months ago the majority of the black vote was polling for Clinton. Now BO is pulling 85+% of that vote.

And when the Clintons steal the nomination, let's hope half of those stay home in disgust, or better yet, vote against her.

“Yes they were. Blacks have a built in ADVANTAGE in this country? Get real.”

If I want to go to the University of Michigan Law School, I need to score in the 58th-percentile on the LSAT if I’m black. I need to score in the 96th-percentile if I’m white. And if you’re white, your average GPA needs to be .7 points higher, as well.

I’d call that a pretty nice built-in advantage, wouldn’t you? The world is your oyster if you’re a marginally qualifed black in this country. Go ask your average Jamaican immigrant as much.

And when the Republican base stays home as well, out of disgust at the appalling McCain....

I wish someone would tell me what this advantage is so that I wouldn’t have to work so hard. Everything we own we’ve had to work for, apparently there’s another way that I’m not privy to.

My first item addresses that -

the right will show up to vote AGAINST Hillary,

and vote on the all important “down ticket” races as well.

Interesting take, considering the fact that Spiter's "little problem" has only recently come to light, publicly, and that "Horn-Dog" has been muted for about two months now... What did BJ know, and when did he know it?

That Depends. It sounds like you are playing the AGE card.
