'Super-Fellatio' posted this a bit earlier down the page here.

I don't think it bears repeating, but for the sake of showing that some of Obama's paraclete's such as that Jeremiah Wright fellow have shown themselves to be 'foaming-at-the-mouth' mad-dog types. I'll 'reprint' it, without 'Super's' permission to demonstrate that 'Super-Fellatio' and the 'good' reverend Wright are not just single bells tolling in the wilderness that this race has become;



Geraldine, Geraldine, Geraldine, Maggie Williamns, Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton,

have you guys no shame, no decency, at long last?

It's very sad that the HRC campaign is stooping to such low tactics. I told my friends that the next thing HRC would do is call him Black. I was joking when I said it, but there is was in GF. If she thinks she can say or do anything to get elected at anyone's expense, then she's already lost. Doesn't she know the world is watching? This has been one of the saddest days in Democratyc history. The party who is suppose to speak for everyone only has one Democrat running in the primary, and that's Barack Obama.

Look EVERYONE!!! If Geraldine Ferraro wants to come across as a first class jerk, let her. She is entitled to her opinion. This is what America is all about. And the fact that Hill did not truly repudiate Ferraro only shows as it has in the past that HILLARY APPROVES of these comments. She laughed when Bill showed his Attack Dog traits. And once again this is sending voters over to Obama's camp. So let them stick their ugly feet in their mouths.... it is only disgusting more and more people who will no longer vote for her.

Same with McCain for saying in essence, boys will be boys when that jerk kept referring to Obama as Barrack Hussein Obama. What first class "bleeps" both are.

I'll never vote for Hillary after all this. She should be ashamed!

Ferraro.like I said to Pat Buchanon in another post. You need to be put out to pasture,old folks like you and him are so out of touch with todays world That you should really sit on the side lines We have enough negativity right now and we don't need your old and stale opinions. This is a new day, you old timers have caused enough damage,let the young people take over. The only legacy you have is that you were the first VP, big woof! who cares,it didn't do anything to make my life easier. So take a vacation, retire,do something,just mind your own business!

We think it is a legitimate reason that people out of ethnic pride, or what have you, would support a candidate. Although when Alan Keyes runs his support among African-American does not seem to register a great deal, though he is a Black man.
We also noted, when Hillary's coronation seemed a sure thing, most African-American were very supportive of her, and dismissive of Barack Obama, when he was an unknown quantity; but a funny thing happened on the way to the primaries,
African-American, and many other voters, began to see the man Barack Obama is,
and they began to pay attention, and they liked what they saw and heard.
At the beginning of the campaign we used to ask many African-Americans about
Barack Obama and they were most concerned about issues, and where he stood about them.
Most people of Irish descent, were proud that JFK was running and that he had Irish roots; so were Women and Italians when Geraldine Ferraro was chosen as
Walter Mondale's running mate. In Astoria, Queens (in NY) the people of Greek descent
were overflowing with pride, and collecting cash to support Mike Dukakis, who had Greek roots. Even Hillary Clinton stretched the band to find that she had Jewish roots, accident? No, the Jewish vote.
Therefore, it is nothing unique, unusual, out of the norm, that African-American support in droves Barack Obama, in part because of ethnic pride; but also because the man has a solid message of hope and change worth listening to. It is not about race; it is about the issues, and who could best champion the people and at the same time, because of his mettle and judgment is ready to be Commander in Chief. Geraldine, Geraldine, Geraldine, Maggie Williams, Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton, have you guys no shame, no decency, at long last? Enough said.

Clintonistas sounding more and more like Rush Limbaugh...
I'm pretty sure she'll vote for McInsane if Obama is nominated.
OTOH, I think it's good that people start to see who these "moderate" Democrats really are: Republicans in disguise...

Shame on you Ms.Ferraro, you think that just because you claim you're not a racist, that allows you to make the most disgusting racist comments? Guess what, that's exactly what all right-wing fascists think. No, they're not racist, they say so, it must be true...

So much censorship going on all around the Internet, especially here at Huffpo.
Obama's supporters can say anything they like about Hillary.
But if you dare write anything salient that is critical of Obama, more than likely your comment doesn't get posted.
I've seen this countless times all over the Internet on these pro-Obama blogs, such as Huffpo.

Ferraro is right! The Obama campaign is crying foul because she is pointing out the completely obvious fact that Obama has so little to qualify him to be President. He is the recipient of a great urge on the part of Democrats to vote for a "change", and a self described "change agent" who to top it off is African American is simply perfect in their minds. Nevermind his resume is so puny.

What matters are his pretty speeches with all the "get along" rhetoric.
Obamanites are the angriest and most insecure sychophants in the presidential race. Don't believe it? Just read their angry retorts at this post!

I will vote for Obama and stand up for him if he is the nominee, but I agree with you about many of his supporters. They don't to him any favors -- I see their posts here and listen to them on the radio -- many are out of control and only serve to be a turn off to those like me who would support either or any Dem candidate before any Republican.

Geraldine, its not the Obama camp thats ringing your bell it's the supporters who know you for what you are, and what you stand for. You and Hillary are getting up there in age and we are seeing the effects of your minds going in different directions than your " Lips.

Funny how Obama goes into a feinting spell about racism every time he loses an election and calls for Hillary to fire someone he accuses of racism.
Yet he's been going to a racist Church for over 20 years to listen to a racist pig and he's never had any problem with all of that racism.
Obama's frequent cries of racism are always targeted at his opponent, but never at the racist he calls his mentor, the guy who holds an official position in Obama's own campaign.
And yes, for all of you ignorant Obamatons, Rev. Wright does hold a position in Obama's campaign. I suggest you look it up before you all make bigger fools out of yourselves.
