Title: Hillary Clinton, the 2008 campaign, sexism
Post by: Perd Hapley on March 23, 2010, 09:26:17 PM

Apropos of something I'm reading right now:

What was that whole thing a couple of years ago, where Hilary Clinton was supposedly the victim of sexism?  Was there anything to that at all, or is it just the usual left-wing kookery, needing to find bigotry/prejudice where none existed? 

Here's a link:

In the Alinsky worldview there are no genders.  Weep not for Hillary.

Seeing Hilary on TV makes me a victim of sexism.

They live in a universe where saying anything negative about a person who happens woman = sexism.

In the same way as "professor" is racism when used to refer to Obama.

Hillary got hoist by her own petard.  She forgot that race trumps gender, at least in the mind of the liberal.

If she were truly the independent woman she fancies herself, she wouldn't be doing Obama's bidding right now and telling Israel they are the problem in the Middle East.  DELTED BY MOD.
