Well hell, and I thought us white guys had the corner on complexion politics!

Aint this some shit. check out what Ms. Geraldine Ferraro, the dem VP nominee of 1984 had to say about Mr. Barrack Obama.

"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."

So, a few years ago, a brother couldn't get a break in a run for dog catcher, but this year, Mr. Obama is leading the democratic nomination process because he IS a brother. Huh? WTF?! Oh fuck. Never mind. Geraldine is probably about 87 years old by now. She's probably living in some twisted fantasy world that combines elements of the 30s through the 60s. So let's give this poor old has been a break. Now, what exactly was she doing so far away from her caregiver that she ended up in front of a microphone giving her dementia induced opinion about anything? Tsk, tsk, someone wasn't earning their homecare salary yesterday now were they?

Oh, but she's "sorry that people thought it was racist."

Doncha just love those kinds of apologies?

Hey Gerry. You're a braindead, dessicated has-been! I'm sorry if you think that's an insult.

I guess Affirmative Action has offically corrupted politics.
