Please somebody stop Geraldine Ferraro. Finally someone from Obama’s “team”, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, says something that takes a little bit of the heat off from her abrasive and hypocritical comments and still she has to open her mouth again.

Ferraro isn’t happy Obama compared her to Jeremiah Wright.

(CNN) – Just over a week after she resigned her post on Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign after making controversial comments about Barack Obama’s presidential bid, Geraldine Ferraro said she resented being compared the Rev. Jeremiah Wright in the Illinois senator’s recent speech on race relations.

“To equate what I said with what this racist bigot has said from the pulpit is unbelievable,” Ferraro told the Daily Breeze newspaper an interview published late Wednesday night. “He gave a very good speech on race relations, but he did not address the fact that this man is up there spewing hatred.”

“What this man is doing is he is spewing that stuff out to young people, and to younger people than Obama, and putting it in their heads that it’s OK to say `Goddamn America’ and it’s OK to beat up on white people,” Ferraro also said of Wright. “You don’t preach that from the pulpit.”

I respect a powerful and opinionated woman as a great representative of my gender. However, I cannot respect the train wreck of ignorance and scatter-brain politics that pours from this woman’s mouth on an almost daily basis.  It’s a shame.
