Oh, Geraldine F

Oh, Geraldine F

A Story by Mr. Deft Diction
"

This isn't a poem or lyrics really. I just wanted to get this off of my chest b/c she really pissed me off!

"

Geraldine Ferraro used to be important,

until her 15 seconds were up,

and the beauty of Democracy closed her curtains.

Chafed chatter about things that don't matter,

fall at the feet of a man who describes you with laughter.

1984 was....

George Orwell's time and Geraldine,

you barely were able to shine.

Had you not been a white woman, would you have gotten by?

Your face is as forgettable as Susan Lucci's at the Emmy's

and your venom spewed at Obama is pure bigotry;

but hey,

you keep playing the game that way.

That's why some white folks still whisper and look away

when I'm in their face,

all of those confused and restricted feelings still

bottled up, aging in peoples chest.

Yet, Peoples is a little different from the rest...

I realize you're a sidenote on history.

Come to think about it,

back then Lee Iacocoa and Chrysler were making history.

You're just the perfect company for misery.

And I hope it chokes you to death,

Geraldine F...

you fool.

Powerful ..and with feeling ... I have only been on the periphery of the race so far but it has become apparent from this side of the Atlantic that the gloves are now off between Obama and Clinton .. interesting Party Conference to come ....

LMAO... even as a rant... this is perfect. Funny that she said the same thing about Jesse Jackson, and yet, Clinton still accepted her as a fundaraiser for the 2008 campaign. What does that say about the company she keeps? And the comment made in O's camp about Hilary being a monster doesn't even compare. That was an insight into Hilary's actions; all the slander and mudslinging. Geraldine was just repeating something she had believed about black people in power in general for more than two decades. The funny thing to me is that Ann Coulter is known for being a shock jock, and has even made comparison of Hilary to Stalin (and quote:"No offense to any descendants of Stalin), but when Coulter said that she would back Hilary to keep McCain out of office, Hilarys' response was just that this should be an interesting campaign then. I guess she figures that she needs the help from wherever she can get it. It's so pathetic, but how can she condone Coulters' support, like Coulter is NOT going to say something ELSE bigoted and out of place. It just makes a mockery of the whole election. Maybe we really ARE watching Saturday Night Live or WWE or anything, but an actual election for the President of the United States of America. The only candidate that acutally upholds some integrity about himself is Obama. You would think that in all the years of this country being a deomcracy, a Presidential Candidate would know what the people need to hear. Even if they weren't going to back up their words once they get into office, you would think they would at least have the sense to say the right things. But Obama is the only one who has. I need at least that much intelligence from someone to date them, much less, back them as the head of our country.

meh, mondale should have never picked her to be his running mate. although i doubt that's what cost him the election...

when he said he'd raise taxes, i'm sure a few people took a longer look at him.

great piece. this woman is a disgrace.
