A new poll says yes -- as if the sexist attacks on Hillary Clinton hadn't already confirmed it.
  • 3x as many women senators voted for Iraq war than black men have served in the Senate!

    Obama is the second black man to serve in the Senate. Ever. Carol Mosley Brown makes it three. There are more women in the Senate that voted for the Iraq war than blacks who have served in the same body.

    As radio host Cenk Uygur put it a couple weeks ago during when the Rev. White "controversy" blew up, he'd like to ask Ferraro if she still thought that Obama was lucky to be black. And to be named Hussein! How lucky can one politician get in America?

    So Joan, why don't you find out what bridge Geraldine is hiding under, and go troll with her. If your columns are a cynical attempt to crank up the hits with your cute flamebait pieces, well, Adblock takes care of that.
