Kirsten Powers (v.2): "An Element of Sexism" In Questioning Hillary Clinton's Health
RCP Video ^ | 8-23-2016 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 08/23/2016 2:19:18 PM PDT by Sir Napsalot

KIRSTEN POWERS, CNN: I guess I have to ask why is there any concern about her health? And the only reason there is any concern about her health is because Donald Trump has sort of started his trutherism on Hillary Clinton's health. There's nothing to suggest she doesn't have stamina. I mean, honestly, I don't even know if I could do the schedule that she keeps. There's nothing to suggest that she has any kind of problems with her stamina, with her health, with her mental health.

CAMEROTA: Well, she had that fall. I mean, this is the thing. She had a fall years ago ......

POWERS: .... So the things that they're pointing to I don't think support it. And, honestly, I think there's an element of sexism to this.

CAMEROTA: How's that?

POWERS: The way that they've talked about her, you know -- the way you watch "Drudge" posting things about granny and grandma. Well, Donald Trump's a grandpa so what's the idea here? That someone because she's a woman and she's a grandma that she's frail?

The coordinated attack of Trump trutherism from several places all of a sudden. How do we know Jour0Lists never cease to exist?

This new Kirsten Powers is worse than the old Kirsten Powers. I just don't get the popularity of her.

I'll be accused of sexist if I point out her blond hair and looks, so I'm not going to go there.

Also Camerota is no prize, either.

Yeah I guess it was also sexism and old age ism that caused the left to go after John McCain’s health and age in 2008..dont you just love liberal hypocrisy..oh and Alison Camerota was always a douche bag..even while on Fox News I knew she leaned left..now she is just whoring herself for CNN

This is Rick Lazio Act II. Hillary loves to play the victim if it helps her, the poor defenseless female who was intimidated when Lazio entered her space. She played that to the end.

Now her media’s going to again push the persecuted female crap although there’s two reasons for this play. One, as with Lazio to show her as the victim and Trump as an aggressive male. Two, to put an end to the sick, weak, talk.

I’m discouraged, this stuff is so hard to fight.

Yeah, it's a dog whistle.

That's why only Hillary supporters can hear it.

During the 2012 Republican primaries, Michele Bachmann’s campaign was gaining traction in the early going. The Democrats launched a preemptive strike against her, saying she was physically unable to handle the duties of president because she admitted that she once suffered from migraine headaches. No one called the Democrats sexist for this line of attack.

CNN = Clinton News Network

Does that sound like objective journalism? What we see our Democrat Operatives pretending to be objective journalist.

The collaborators in the media are are a joke and hate thus country.

I know CNN has low numbers. I wonder how many of their low numbers actually account for airports, trains stations, restaurants ad bars where hardly anyone is paying attention to it compared to say a football game?

There is no sexism. You are healthy or you are not. Cankles is very ill.

Camerota has a nice personality. I liked her when she was on Fox. Never had any use for Kirsten Powers, the female Alan Colmes.

Not sure this poor little defenseless woman’s going to work this time because of terrorism. If she can’t fight back from being called weak how the hell is she going to beat ISIS?

Any criticism of a leftist woman is ipso facto Sexism and probably Racism and Homophobia, too.

If she cannot handle an aggressive male how is she going to deal with Putin? Does she win diplomatic encounters by calling him a Sexist Aggressor? Actually there will be a competition between Putin and Hussein over control of the Clinton administration. Both have enough provable information on her to satisfy the most determined blackmailer.

She dated Weiner. That's all I need to know.

Caption: Powers and Weiner used to be a couple in 2002, only to split in bitter fashion.

Source: nydailynews.com

Powers had a fling with the erstwhile Congressman Anthony Weiner in 2002.They continue being good friends even after their relationship terminated. Though powers defended him at beginning when the story of Weiner's sexting scandal surfaced in May 2011, she later condemned his conduct and called for his resignation from Congress.

Look at Obama and racism ..... for the past eight years.

How did that work out for US on the international stage?

Hillary and Obama cut from the same cloth.
