Forgetting His Place

The statements by the feckless Geraldine Ferraro that Barack Obama is only ahead of Hillary Clinton, who admits that she lacks Sen. Obama's ability to inspire people, because he is " very lucky to be who he is" (that is, a black man), are so blatantly outrageous that The Oracle is tempted to use offensive terms to paraphrase her. I only refrain because I fear that readers might misunderstand and imagine that to be the way that I think or speak.

However, should you choose to use your imagination, I don't think you would be guilty of unfairness to Ms. Ferraro.
