SEXIST OUTBURST AT CLINTON EVENT (Clinton Plants?)
MSNBC ^ | 1/06/08 | Athena Jones

Posted on 01/07/2008 5:11:00 PM PST by Kid Shelleen

About 11 minutes into Clinton's speech a man in the audience stood up holding a bright yellow sign that read "Iron My Shirt," which he shouted several times.

A few seconds later, another man stood up with a similar sign and said the same thing.

"Oh, the remnants of sexism, alive and well!" Clinton said, to roaring cheers and applause from the stunned crowd.

The two men were lead out and much of the crowd gave her a standing ovation, after which she quipped about anyone in the audience needing to learn to iron their own shirt.

Yeah, I heard another version that had she-who-must-not-be-named and Rush Limbaugh in an elevator together. ;)

I’d have asked, “Who’s watching Bill?”

I smell a ‘Rat! I don’t know if anyone here remembers, but when Hillary ran for U.S. Senate in NY she ran a commercial in which ordinary people on the streets of NY described how great Hillary would be for New York. One of the “random” interviewees was a black woman who was filmed on a busy New York City street corner. It was latter revealed that she was on of Hillary’s Washington, D.C. staffers who did not reside in NY.

That's a newer twist, but yeah, same joke. The version I put above I heard back in the 80's.

Could be the guys in the audience -- if they were not plants -- were referring to your version.

Not surprising, though. They wanted the sign to get airplay, and she'd see what it says regardless.

Or possibly it is written on both sides?

this campaign is aimed at idiots. plain and simple. sensible people can't possibly take this seriously.

So she's targeted her audience: the female version of the people who think wrestling or ufo's or bigfoot or the vast rightwing conspiracy or global warming or horoscopes or Oprah is real (or whatever)...

and she's playing to them.

Pretty surgical marketing campaign.

On his Myspace page Adolfo Gonzalez Jr says he works for WBCN radio. Now check out:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Toucher_and_Rich_Show

The Toucher and Rich Show (WBCN) are a couple of “shock jocks” who specialize in silly stunts. Adolfo Gonzalez Jr is listed as assistant producer. Note also that another employee is listed as “Intern Nick.” Nick Gemelli????

Here’s a description of some of their act:

“Many gags have focused on Toucher and Rich trying to find Gonzalez a girlfriend, and his phone number was given out live on air for this purpose. Others allow him to interview celebrities in his typical tongue-tied fashion. In one specific interview with Chuck Norris, Toucher and Rich gave Gonzalez false information for the interview, such as that Norris had three nipples and was related to Santa Claus, both of which Gonzalez brought up in the interview. Nearly every bit on the show has a theme song written and sung on the spot by Gonzalez.

Date Me or Dump Me
A bit starring Adolfo. Adolfo goes into public places with a hidden microphone to ask randomly (and presumably sexy) ladies for a date. If they are not interested in a date Adolfo then asks to use the restroom. Upon his return to say goodbye to the date-denier, he describes through (usually) unintelligible euphemisms, the act of defecation.”

Pinging since I used his name.

But this morning she’s out at the polls serving coffee to people waiting in line. . .

I’m thinking, the guys at the rally had it all wrong. Hillary wants to be a waitress, not a cleaning lady.

“Bring more coffee! Bring more coffee!”

This is about as staged as her crying yesterday.
