Wow...Ferraro blames black journalists for Hillary's situation.
"All the surrogates that they had out there, from the black journalists — you know, have you read Bob Herbert recently in the past six months? There wasn't one column that had anything decent to say about Hillary."

Easy:

Gotta be one vote she cast or one campaign she worked or one charity she supported, gotta be *something* in 40 yers of activism and public service that you'd maybe agree with if nobody was looking. Gotta be.

Silly boy. No one says to throw the window out with the baby. It's still a perfectly good window for criminy's sake! Obviously if you're going to throw a baby out the window, you've got to keep the window functional.

71. No we can't accept Republicans South Strategy more than we can accept her statements
Hillary made a choice by her statements.

Geraldine made a choice by her statements.


ORIGINAL POST CONTENT

Geraldine Ferraro spoke to Shepard Smith earlier today on Fox News and claimed that media coverage of Hillary Clinton has been unfair and sexist.

"All the surrogates that they had out there, from the black journalists — you know, have you read Bob Herbert recently in the past six months? There wasn't one column that had anything decent to say about Hillary."

Ferraro said she's been speaking about "sexist behavior" since December and plans to write an op-ed calling for an "independent group to do a study on media."

"When Tim Russert came into the campaign and he went after Hillary in the debate, he had done that also when she ran for the Senate here in New York," Ferraro said. "And we complained about it then. He kind of almost was up on the stage helping her opponent."

"He's not a candidate," she added. "He's a moderator."

After Ferraro mentioned contacting CNN about its coverage, Smith asked if she considered the network "in the tank" for Obama.

Ferraro didn't agree but gave her own critique.

"I'm saying that they're looking at this race, and they've got a goal," Ferraro said. "They have a goal. They never wanted to be accused of racism, but it's perfectly OK to be accused of sexism. That's a problem."



ME=BHO supporter

Baby = racist sentiment expressed by femnists is perfectly acceptable

Bathwater = racism expressed by casting votes against black guy JUST BECAUSE he is a black guy

Window = Southern Strategy to win the old South and people who have those sentiments

baby + bathwater + window = WONDERFUL idea

73. I forgot to mention the reverse is true too
Baby = sexist sentiment expressed by diversity advocate is perfectly acceptable

Bathwater = sexism expressed and perpetuated by voters casting vote against the woman SIMPLY BECAUSE she is a woman

Window = Historical sentiment that says women need to stay at home, with a cheating, lying spouse so she can retain her power

baby + bathwater + window = WONDERFUL idea


The argument breaks down in terms of what that window can be. I am not sure what the historical equivalent for women is to Slavery, Jim Crow, and the Southern Strategy/Dixiecrats. Whatever the historical precedent is = window.

this is the way that hillary does business. this is the kind of politics that she believes in. This isn't some loose cannon spouting nonsense without hillary's consent. This is about hillry working to ensure that she gets another shot in 2012.

Edited on Wed May-21-08 04:11 AM by quantass
her most important surrgoate.

sure she is completely lying about Obama being sexist (0 evidence) or saying he inject racism which once again is a total fabrication (someone should tell Ferrero that video shows Clinton did) but it doesnt matter...as long as Hillary can create a complete divide in a way to section off her constituents (ie., women) then she can hold enough cards to make her terroist demands.

79. I don't think racism is PROVEN by one or two instances nor do I think it explains a person's life
I think racism is a continuum where any one person can fall over a lifetime or a period of time. I don't like dual mode of thinking where either you are or are not a racist.

You can be tolerant of difference in one area and completely hateful in another area.

Let's be clear Ferraro has said some audacious and ridiculous crap about race to justify why HRC is not doing well. Also let's be clear Pat Buchanan has made a career of taking jingoism and elevating the us versus them so that we Americans will not be united.

Let's be clear that HRC has made it her business to use race/gender and other feelings of difference or fear to deep six BHO's campaign; however, we lose the biggest part and piece of the picture by saying they are racist and dismissing them COMPLETELY.

In the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s it was understood certain classes of folks were less equal than everybody else. Children of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s have learned something else and accept these status limitations as things of the past and most refuse to further these divisions.

Does that mean the children's parents were different and taught their children different? Or does it mean people can change and adapt to new social realities?


Ferraro needs to have a little more light shined into her soul. Does she need more exposure? Maybe. Does she need to accept sometimes women candidates lose? Maybe she can look back in her own election bid and figure it out. Does her Democratic family need to step in and help her? Maybe (I would not be the first in line for that intervention).

Even if she never does, Robert Byrd supporting BHO says it can happen over a lifetime.

Edited on Wed May-21-08 04:26 AM by Cali_Democrat
Don't lose your will. Make no mistake, this is definitely an uphill battle for us. Hillary and her nasty surrogates are going to continue to do everything to take away Obama's support among women.

Hillary's surrgoates know its over for her in 2008 and they want her to run again in 2012. The next step for them is defeating Barack Obama by taking away his female support in the GE. They want him to lose to McCain.

We must remain vigilant against scum like Geraldine Ferraro. We MUST continue to fight to the bitter end. :patriot:

82. Why wouldn't FOXNEWS put her on television and interview her as much as possible?
People need someone to give them a pass to say racist stuff.

Pat is pretty much locked in on MSNBC. He can write horrible screeds about AAs, but can't say on air that he believes the stuff he writes. He has to be PC.

Republicans have been accused of saying blatantly racist stuff in the past. Now they can only use code to say the racist stuff.

Now that HRC put Ferraro off the reservation and said her comments don't reflect her campaign, the Fox News Republicans can use her to express the sentiments they can't say publicly. All they can say is our guest is a former Democratic candidate for VP like Liberman is a former Democratic candidate for VP.


If they repeat Ferraro's assessment of the Democratic primary, they can say I don't believe it but she said it. I've heard Pat Buchanan use it in that way.

It makes perfect sense. It is underhanded and cowardly, but it makes perfect logical sense.

down, and that Ferraro would keep silent so as not to hurt the campaign? Hillary can say she's distanced herself from her to people who dob't like it, but she lets her spread division regardless for the people who do buy her victimhood card- see the post above. This is Clinton's strategy now- notice she no longer talks about experience or health care- its all about her LYING popular vote math, and pushing the meme that she's been wronged, to divide the party so bad that super-delegates HAVE to give her a spot on the ticket to ensure that the party stays united. Its Rovian tactics 101, divide and conquer. She is so disgusting she makes me sick.

46. They always have that jack ass Erik Rush. But let's be honest Bob herbert
reported on Hillary's actions, If Hillary and Ferraro, don't like people pointing out the negative things Hillary does. Some one should advise her to stop doing dumb shit.

Was it sexism that chose Mark Penn to be Hillary's main campaign stragiest?
Was it sexism that caused her to spend 118 million by Feb 5th?
Was it sexism that told her to ignor caucus states?
Was it sexism that told the world "Hard working white americas...."
Was it sexism that said "landed under sniper fire."
Was it sexism that lied about how much money she raised April 24th?

No no no no no and no!

Hillary's BIGGEST problem has and always will be Hillary.

85. That's a direct quote from her. Give us a break.
Awfully "cult-like" to be denying direct evidence, though.

49. New York twang. It's not us Southerners have cornered the market on tacky.
She's being used by the media to stir up ratings & controversy. Please, please. Let's quit rubbernecking and let traffic flow through.

50. Wow.... what a creative use of the racism card
to boost the gender card.


Sure Ferraro, your right black people hate women. :eyes:

55. Has she called the black journalists "uppity" yet?
And when is Hillary going to be called on to repudiate her. She is becoming the Rev. Wright of Hillary's sect.

56. Geraldine Ferraro and Rev. Wright should hook up...
I think they have a lot in common.

Not least of which is the inability to shut the fuck up.

64. weak. she made no sense at all... She carries no credibility after her racist remarks.
I actually thought slimy Fox Smith made more sense than Ferraro! She's off her rocker.

He has impressed me tremendously this primary season. He has been a reasoned voice on the primaries.

72. That goddamned Bob Herbert! Where does he get off
writing insightful, beautifully-crafted opinion pieces for the New York TIMES anyway?

He acts like they PAY him to express his opinion on current events.

Sheesh.

75. what is wrong with her?? even republicans aren't THAT obvious with their racism
they would have referred to bob herbert as an "urban" reporter. :rofl:


some people just don't know when to stop. if you get some sh*t on you, trying to wipe it off sometimes leads to just smearing all over yourself. it's better to just sit there until it dries, then flick it off.

78. So no white journalists have criticized the Clintons?

Well, the one good part about this is that I just learned about Bob Herbert. I just bookmarked his articles page.

89. Is there a therapist in the house? What's the matter with Geraldine Ferraro,
anyway?

Someone who knows how to read the DSM-IV should have a crack at it.
