Rush Limbaugh was fired from a job for making a comment similiar to Ferraro's.
So how is Limbaugh a racist and Ferraro isn't?

1. Because Limbaugh is, in fact, a racist and Ferarro is not.

3. She just makes racist statements. But, don't point that out because THAT

4. Then why is she talking like one?
I'm sorry, but her statements are just like the sort of RW BS I have been hearing from people for years - the same sort of people who whine endlessly about Democratic 'political correctness' and think the Democratic party is full of 'welfare queens' and 'poverty pimps' and so on. Walk like a duck, quack like a duck, don't be surprised if people conclude you're a duck.

2. Exactly.
We've all heard it, we know what she meant.
