Was that racist tho? She was quoting an article from a reputable news company. The article was based on exit polls from previous primaries.

After getting a lot of heat from the Obama campaing she said that it was stupid of her to have said it. That is not being racist. Again, the Obama Campaing is using that card really well, as always...

As Geraldine Ferraro said: "This would've been over if he wasn't black"....

"Hang that darky from a tree!"

"The first person I encountered was like, 'I'll never vote for a black person,"


Yet, of course you imply that it's not. Should people assume that you agree with this? If not, then why not just openly say so?


"White devils"
"The Great Whore Israel"
"My grandmother...she's a TYPICAL WHITE PERSON..."
"AIDS was created to murder black people"
"G** damn America".
All ofm these are VERY RECENT QUOTES of Jeremiah Wright, Barak Obama,and Farrakhan's Old Favorite.
Whom are you quoting? And how are any of those ugly comments anymore racist than the ones I cite?

Whom are you quoting? From when? Or are they just "dramatic creations",with no real source relevant to today's election?
And how are any of those ugly comments anymore racist than the ones I cite?

NO that is not what i said-she used the gender card the day before....and as far back as history tells us it was the indians that were already here--but again my point is nobody has the right to be racist one way or the other..
