Video: 5 reasons Hillary supporters should be embarrassed by exploitative ad (watch video)

Or are these actual Hillary Clinton supporters? This 90-second video comes from a site called BillForFirstLady, which identifies itself as a political-action committee. OpenSecrets has a file open on it but no data, as it’s relatively new; as of March 9, 2015, it hasn’t listed any expenditures, and it’s too early for OpenSecrets to track donations in the 2016 cycle. The committee filed papers with the FEC at the beginning of February, and it’s based out of Columbus, Ohio. The name of the treasurer matches that of a “Democratic digital strategist” who once ran for mayor in Washington DC, Luke Montgomery — and more pertinently, had a similar campaign starting in 2005 promoting Hillary for President, using the same domain.

So yes, this appears to be on the level, at least in terms of its sincerity. In terms of its content, though, it’s execrable. It uses pre-teen girls who have no concept of the political issues they are regurgitating for the camera to make the argument that it’s time to put a “va-jay-jay” in the White House. In fact, the video puts that term in one girl’s mouth:

Here are the top 5 reasons Hillary supporters should be embarrassed by this effort, in no particular order:

If you can’t find adults to make your case for you, then maybe you should pack it up. Putting words in the mouths of kids who aren’t even old enough to babysit on their own says a lot more about the campaign than it does about the mindsets of the children they exploit. Speaking of which, in the midst of all this cheering about empowerment, did anyone notice that the ad chooses their spokesbabies on the basis of their genitalia and then tells them to make an argument based on their anatomy? Talk about objectifying girls … If the argument to be made is that electing a woman will produce equal pay in the workplace, then these girls have picked the wrong woman to idolize. No, really. If the argument is that we need to have a male “First Lady” to stop exploitation of women in the workplace, then these girls really need to rethink their endorsement. Having little girls discussing their “vajayjays” as a political argument is just appalling. It’s appalling when adults make genitalia-based arguments, too, but at least we know it’s their argument. And here’s a bonus reason:

The video claims that putting a woman in the White House will open up equality and suffrage in nations where women can’t vote. Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State for four years — what accomplishments did she make along those lines? Better yet, why did the Clinton Foundation take in millions from some of those very nations while Hillary Clinton served in that capacity? Of course, when one looks at the website, it’s clear why they chose this approach. They basically assume everyone is 9 years old:

THE REAL HILLARY CLINTON: Episode #2 - Children in the Hospital

NOTE: the survival of our Republic is threatened by two things — fundamentalist Islamic terrorists and Hillary Rodham Clinton. President Bush is leading the fight against the terrorists. It is up to those of us who know the real Hillary Clinton to lead the fight against her. We must shine the light of truth on this dangerous woman so that all Americans may know the real Hillary.

#2 in a series.

(Story originally appreared in the American Spectator, March 97)
It seems that Hillary, who’s had her fingerprints found on all the new scandals that are breaking on a daily basis is trying to fix her public image.

So, to promote the new effort, showing how deeply Hillary cares about children, especially sick children in hospitals, Georgetown University Medical Center in Washington got a call. Hillary Clinton would be coming over soon with children’s author Maurice Sendak. Hillary’s advance team would be showing up arranging the security and logistics. The team did show up. What they saw horrified them.

The kids in the hospital children’s ward really looked sick! Some of them had tubes sticking out. Some had lost their hair to chemotherapy. Some were groggy because of the pain killers they had to take.

Hospital officials were quickly told this would not do. Hillary would look bad in a newspaper photo if she posed with sickly looking children. They were told. “No children that look drowsy, skip bald kids, sick looking kids, or kids with tubes sticking out.”

So here’s what the hospital actually did. They outfitted a hospital conference room with toys and kids decorations. They ordered hospital staff members to bring in their healthy children who would pose as sick children in photos with the great St. Hillary.

So, on January 10th, Hillary Clinton showed up to Georgetown University Medical Center and read to a bunch of kids with author Maurice Sendak. Had you read the papers or heard the news the next day, you might have been bowled over by her compassion. Actually she demonstrated the opposite. You see the real sick kids, who were originally told they would be visited by the first lady were originally extremely happy and excited at the prospect of her visit.

When they were later told, they were too sick looking to be with the great Hillary, some became deeply depressed. After all how would anyone feel not being good enough for Ms. compassion herself.

Of course the press published the photos of Hillary reading to the cute kids the next day. They just forgot to tell you that Hillary, in the quest of the perfect photo could not bring herself to be photographed with an actual sick child.

The phony mask of compassion that Hillary hides behind has slipped once again. Just around Purim time too!

Way before Clinton was elected I was ridding on a ski lift with a couple who were Democrats...it came out later, and they told me a story about Bill. They were on an island retreat that the Clintons helped organize to plan Democratic political moves a few years before. They had a then 16 year-old with them and Bill repeatedly tried to get her to visit him in his room. A smart girl she told her parents and the fled the place.

Back then I was shall we say skeptical, but now I think both Clintons have a streak of pedophilia in them.

So the ad doesn’tsurprise me.
