Pinko identity politics

In all its glory. I mean, do these people have anything else to talk about?

Can hardly disagree. What's the interest in this guy again? Andrew Sullivan said we need Obama in the WH because he's black and his middle name is Hussein or something. If many people see it his way, then she's right.
So? If anything, you ought to be fighting hard for her to say this and go one further like your buddy Cunningham.

Cunny is not by buddy, I was just defending his right to free speech. My question was -- is -- do all these dumbos -- mostly left, but some on the right -- have anything to say besides this pathetic, identity politics drivel?

Isn't that what you wanted McCain to use aginst Obama? in that case, why can't Ferraro?
What she's saying is a valid rejoinder to Andrew Sullivan.

Like Mac with cunni, Hill dissociates. This is a running tactic now.

JJ, you keep misinterpreting my position, day in, day out. It's getting boring. Let me say it again slowly:

* I never said what "McCain should use against Obama" (besides saying he better learn something about econ 101, pronto).

* All I said is that McCain should stop telling other people what they can say or not say -- this is a free country.

* Geraldine Ferraro can say whatever she wants. I still think she's dumb as a door-bell (Dan Quayle is Feynman by comparison). And I've been saying that since 1984, when Mondale plucked her out of obscurity as his VP running-mate (you know, Pepe, that's done before the election, not after -- look up the U.S. Constitution), purely as an act of identity politics.

* All this talk about identity politics makes me puke.

* But that doesn't mean I want to forbid them from jabbering about it.

* But I can say anyone who can't think of anything else is an idiot.

I could go on, but so far, is my point coming across, perhaps, or should I draw a commuting diagram?

If you would bother to read her words in this piece you would see that she says she was picked as a kow-tow to identity politics. I doubt that she is engaging in same now.

In fact, her admission and realization of this is proof that Quayle is no Feynman in comparison. The idea brings a shudder, in fact. Bush must have chosen him as a nod to mongoloid-Americans.

If it offends you, don't read it, but you're missing the real reason Obama has not been scrutinized. You are also missing why he is doing well at all. Sullivan speaks for that mentality and it's not rare.


* But I can say anyone who can't think of anything else is an idiot.

Prove she can't think of anything else to say and you will have said something here.

* All I said is that McCain should stop telling other people what they can say or not say -- this is a free country.

If McCain is asked whether he approves of filth like Limbaugh he should say what he thinks or what he thinks is politically expedient. He cannot dummy up and say he has no opinion. The press will give him an opinion then.

Your point has come across, but it is antidemocratic and muzzling.
