Ferraro was on O' Reilly Radio show
Edited on Wed Mar-12-08 04:49 PM by RamboLiberal
Ferraro/Clinton's strategy of appealing to white resentment continued today as she hit the media circuit, including Bill O'Reilly's show, home of white people who hate affirmative action.

O'REILLY: This crossed the wire. Apparently you told the Daily Breeze newspaper in Torrance, California, quote, "If Obama were a white man, he would not be in this position. If here were a woman of any color, he would not be in the position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is in a country who's caught up in the concept." Did you say that?

FERRARO: Yeah, but I also said a lot before that.

O'REILLY: Right, but you know you're gonna get hammered on that.

FERRARO: I was not speaking – no, I was speaking to – it was a paid speech. I was not representing a campaign. I go out and give speeches. I don't –

O'REILLY: Oh, I understand that.

FERRARO: You know, like you do.

O'REILLY: I absolutely know they can take you out of context, but do you believe that Barack Obama, if he were a white mean, white senator, would not be in the position?

FERRARO: Absolutely

O'REILLY: I got it. I got it. I got it. No, listen, I mean, I'm not saying you're wrong <...>

but you're gonna get hammered by it, but if anybody does, let me know, and I'll take care of them. Geraldine Ferraro, everybody. Geraldine's too nice, see.

Oh, nice, running to the Wingnut media! Guess since the Clinton people are turning off Olbermann, Schultz, Rhodes, Maddow, etc they will only have the likes of O' Reilly to listen to.

2. I don't wonder why O'Reilly would want to feature Rep. Ferraro.
I do have to wonder why Ferraro would let herself get used that way.
