Hey Ferraro you are a stupid racist ass old white skank, unfortunately people like you are the biggest voting block
Wednesday, March 12th, 2008Before you read my rant watch Keith Olbermann go off on Ferraro and Hillary. This is the first time I actually agreed with this dude on anything.
This race shit if the Democrats don’t fix it will doom the party. Now nothing would make me happier, BUT, although I am a conservative I still function with the mindset that for America to be a strong nation both sides of the political divide must field quality competent individuals and let the battle of ideas decide the direction of the country.
Although watching the Clinton campaign circle the drain with their racial mudslinging and identity politics is amusing it is not good for the nation.
Having this skank ass old white bitch Ferraro sounding off like David Duke is a further reminder of why my comments below are more correct than not.

I have to rant about this to remind myself why I named this blog Political Party Poop.
I read on some obscure blog by this dude trying to explain this racial mess the Democrats are in regarding the racial civil war between Hillary and Obama.
He states that we have three choices for president; a white dude, an aging white lady and a middle aged black dude and your choice basically lies with who you identify with the most.
Reading not only his statement but others basically babbling about the notion that we pick our political leaders simply based on physical characteristics is more than a little disturbing.
This particular dude is a Hillary supporter, but he does like Obama and he is trying to grasp (as is Geraldine Ferraro) how this relatively unknown black dude can be so close to the presidency. They wonder how did this Negro slip through the cracks of the Democratic Party machine.
Let me tell you why I find Ferraro’s comments over the top offensive.
First she used the same comment to describe the Jackson campaign years ago. Uppity ass white people - when trying to explain their racist tendencies towards black folks who manage to break through the racist haze - must somehow try to explain how that nigga was able to get that position, whether it is a political position, work or business related.
As Shelby Steele pointed out, all of us black folks must wear the survival masks to muck our way through society. Some of us are just better at playing the game then others.
I have been in countless situations where I have been the only black individual who was part of some major project, or chaired some committee or organization. And I have heard, via friends, that rednecks questioned my participation and my “standing.” They wanted to know what I brought to the table. Besides my blackness that is.
I mentioned in a post long ago that when I first got the job I now occupy, my predecessor who could not perform the job because he did not have the technical skills, asked me point blank when I met him, “what is your background, what are your qualifications for this position” before we even finished our handshake. I wanted to punch the mutherfucker.
What white person do you know, who has a job position, high paid or high profile, would be asked by someone “how’d the fuck did you get this gig?” I’m thinking “I don’t know, I FUCKEN APPLIED FOR THE POSITION.”
Unfortunately that would not be the last time individuals would take a double take when I told them my current job title.
Again it has nothing to do with anything other than perception. If I were a fucken delivery driver or some other common laborer, if I were sweeping the floors of my lovely facility nobody would blink and eye.
That is what this racist world expects of a black man.
Shit I work on a campus, your typical liberal bastion of educational endeavors and except for some black folks in such fields as African-American studies there are no black people around here. Hell there is only one black dude working in the entire campus maintenance department. Niggas can’t even get a job cutting the grass here. There are not even black folks working in the mess halls. I know we are a small percentage of the total population in Kansas, but I am convinced that there would be more blacks hired if the employers did not know our race before they made the decision.
I must say there is one black provost who is the head of campus technology. Must have been a quota hire. See, that is why people like Ferraro and her ilk assume that any black had help to get to a higher level.
Now keep in mind folks, my job don’t pay jack but I am responsible for the care for a high profile facility and they gave me the biggest fanciest office in the place, and perhaps in the whole town. When folks, particularly old white folks ask and when I tell them my job title more than a few people have asked me “how did you get this job?”
I have to wonder, would they ask that question if I were white? I don’t think so!
Shit if blacks are seen on college campuses white folks automatically think “affirmative action.” Same thing if we are in the corporate world. More than a few of us have endured the “quota” hire rant.
Every damn time black folks manage to achieve their little tiny piece of the pie, people like Ferraro, and especially old white people, need to attach the “well he or she must be a nigga quota hire or appointment.”
I have no plan to vote for Obama, because he is a closet Socialist and a flaming liberal. I don’t give a fuck what your color or background he is, if I find your particular brand of politics offensive I won’t vote for you and I damn sure can’t identify with you.
At Mrs. Snoops’ birthday dinner party the other night I was explaining to a friend, my still held belief that all of the Obama hype is fleeting, that white people when it comes time to vote will not pull the lever or tap the touch screen for a black dude particularly a black man.
Let me be even more specific, I seriously doubt that any Asian or relatively few Mexicans will vote for him, Mexicans don’t like black people, don’t get along with them. Most Mexicans would send black folks back to Africa faster than Robert Byrd.
That is why I have no problem voicing my disdain for illegal immigration. These Mexicans are not coming over here to become “American citizens.” They want their fucken country back and assimilating with the gringos, while stooping to mowing their lawns, making up hotel beds and building backyard decks for a few dollars an hour is just the ticket to keep the gringos at ease. Yea, I know, I’m stereo typing. I learned it from whitey!
I’m still not convinced, particularly with the heightened racial tensions that continue to boil over, that there is a significant enough number of white people who will put this nation in the hands of a black dude.
He needs 52 or 53 million people must win the majority of white men. He cannot win if no other racial or ethnic group is going to largely vote for a Negro.
Talks about racial identity! Scores of white people have little or no ongoing contact with black folks. Don’t work with any, don’t socialize with any, never dated a Negro, never went to grade school with one and more than likely never attend college with a Negro.
There are few if any positive black role models on TV and in the movies.
Sunday political talk shows are crammed with talking head old white people, all major radio broadcast talk shows on the right or left are by white folks.
Few influential black folks in the major news media and of course the majority of today’s decision makers are mostly white.
Still, today a white father’s worst nightmare is to have his lovely daughter marrying a Negro. That is still morally repugnant in the minds of way too many rednecks.
I’m black and my “Negro” friends all live on the east and west coasts. I can go days and not see another Negro in my humble little progressive (read liberal) town.
After all of that - you people want to still try and convince me that enough white people will say “fuck it” and hand the keys to the White House to a black dude? Oh I forgot to mention that a great number of white people are still trying to hand the Muslim tag around his neck.
“Gee won’t it be peachy keen to have a Negro as president?” Seriously folks I would need to smoke some really good weed to process that reality.
“But Snoop what about the primaries and the fact that he won white states like Vermont and Iowa” Look, I don’t discount Hillary hatred.
Obama is winning over the more educated and progressive white folks. The more education a given white person has the more likely they are to support Obama, because any rational thinking person would never consider Hillary, which is why she is most popular with lower middle class white folks particularly poor white women and old white women.
If on election night I am wrong I will have no problem admitting it.
Back to Obama. This black dude represents the hopes and dreams for black folks that somehow his presidency will transform niggas into more productive citizens when that is just a pipe dream. Yea. Right.
At the dinner party - and I have told Mrs. Snoop and others this many times - I said that nothing pisses me off more that to have someone tell me that Obama’s potential presidency will somehow transform me, I guess since I’m a black dude. On inauguration day somehow I will become a slightly better human being. I will suddenly be accepted for who I am without regard for my race. Fuck that. No magic negro is going to wave the magic wand and make the racists all think well of a black man!
Now I can see through the political crap and do often ridicule Obama’s ascendancy to the presidency, but when people like that fuck Ferraro feel that it is her obligation to remind the masses that your support of this unqualified Negro is “foolish” it is more than a bit insulting.
A nigger at the top of the Democratic ticket “that is just outrageous!”
It’s only because dude is black. Yup it tis funny that a great number of white people, mostly politically ignorant young people who see a vote for Obama as a vote against the man. Never mind that nobody reached the presidency has ever gotten there without dealing with “the man.” He will become “the man” and not much will really change!
Obama leading the Democrat presidential race was Howard Dean’s worst nightmare.
I would hope that black folks will continue to keep a close tab on the future racist statements that will come from the mouths of various Democrats. Hopefully black folks will finally start to comprehend that neither political party has a monopoly on your well being and by continuing to vote Democrat they give creative license to people like Ferraro.
When Ferraro was supposedly fighting for Negros as a politician, she saw herself as the slave master. All Democrats see black folks this way.
They are just simply tools to achieve political power. And how dare we not do things according to their master plan for us!?
They (the Ferraro’s of the world) never envisioned a time where some stray Negro would usurp their rightful place at the top of this countries political ivory towers.
