Oh, Give it Up
By Geraldine Ferraro refuses to back off her claim that Obama has gotten so far in the presidential primary because he is black. In fact, she’s made things worse, saying:
“Racism works in two different directions. I really think they’re attacking me because I’m white. How’s that?”
How’s that, Geraldine? Well, it’s both (1) blatantly untrue and (2) undermining the history of racism in this country.
So how about you remove your foot from your mouth and apologize, Ms. Ferraro? How’s that?
