Hillary Using Racism Template to Weaponize Sexism?
Townhall.com ^ | March 31, 2015 | David Limbaugh

If Hillary Clinton survives her myriad real scandals and becomes the Democratic presidential candidate for 2016, are we going to be bludgeoned with sexism the same way Barack Obama's supporters have exploited "racism"?

If recent rumblings from Clinton supporters are any indication, I'm afraid this could be the case.

New York Times reporter Amy Chozick recently received an email from a Clinton-supporting group, called HRC Super Volunteers, warning her, "We will be watching, reading, listening and protesting coded sexism." How feminist of that group. You know, that sure sends a signal that its gal can fend for herself without any John Wayne character's clearing her path before her, doesn't it? "I'm a thin-skinned woman. Hear me purr."

John West, director of HRC Super Volunteers, says that sexist media coverage is everywhere and that he aims to eradicate it. His email to some 120 journalists said he and his group "will not tolerate any form of sexist news coverage of any woman who chooses to break through glass ceilings; whether as a CEO or running for president of these United States." He continued, "Already we have seen the coded language of sexism and innuendo used by major news outlets and we are not happy."

What he's really trying to do is intimidate, just as proponents of political correctness do with their list of forbidden words and topics and just as Obama supporters have done with race for six years.

West and company probably have observed Obama's success in pre-emptively silencing his critics and figure the same tactic will work for them -- honesty, integrity and gender relations be damned, just as Obama's demagogues have selfishly exacerbated racial tensions in the United States.

I'm serious about this. How can honest observers deny that Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder's weaponizing of the race issue has not set back race relations? Using the standards they've established, how does their whining about race every time someone disagrees with their outrageous actions contribute to the image of minorities and their self-sufficiency?

I've always believed that this shameless tactic has been insulting to minorities and abundantly counterproductive. In fact, Obama and his supporters have abused the race card to the point of absurdity, but they are impervious to shame over it because it still works to insulate them from scrutiny and accountability, no matter how preposterous it has become.

So let's get one thing straight out of the box. For Hillary and her henchmen, this isn't about glass ceilings, respect for females, gender relations or even her faux defensive sensitivity, which would be bad enough. It's a calculated offensive move to put her critics off balance and deflect heat over the misconduct she's engaged in and the noxious policies she'll be endorsing.

I doubt seriously that the self-absorbed Hillary has genuine concerns about enhancing respect toward women generally, as her evil quarterbacking of the "bimbo eruptions" operation to defame her husband's female victims into silence firmly attests. What manifestly drive Hillary, like husband Bill, are raw political ambition and every delicious morsel that would accompany her coveted elevation to the White House.

Hillary can be as tough and heartless as any male chauvinist, as witnessed by her callous utterance on the cause of the terrorist attacks in which four American diplomats were murdered in Benghazi, Libya: "What difference, at this point, does it make?" Her excusers have said that was taken out of context. Well, put it in any context you want, and throw in her defiant attitude. Then tell me it was a tactful, sensitive, acceptable thing to say. Dare to tell me it was decent or honest of her to pretend that it makes no difference that she and others in the Obama administration fraudulently blamed a video for the attacks. You can't.

But along with her real heartlessness come her manufactured gender sensitivity and embarrassing, self-generated weakness. Remember when she and her chivalrous protectors decimated Rick Lazio for daring to approach her lectern during a debate in the campaign for Senate?

She can't have it both ways. She's either tough as nails or a helpless wallflower.

I guess her HRC Super Volunteers group is opting for defenseless damsel, as West issued this threat: "You are on notice that we will be watching, reading, listening and protesting coded sexism this time around in words and phrases like polarizing, calculating, disingenuous, insincere, ambitious, will do anything to win, represents the past, out of touch, inevitable, entitled, over confident, defiant, inserting snide comments on her looks like tired, haggard, worn out...the list goes on but I trust you get my point."

Isn't it interesting that these bullying buffoons unwittingly happened on descriptors that so precisely pinpoint Hillary's aura? Or was it intentional? That would be bizarre.

If I were more worried about the likelihood that Hillary will become our next president, I'd probably take this stuff more seriously. But if she gets the nomination and her enablers inject sexism in this way, maybe her opponents will enjoy the ironic gratification of seeing the sordid tactic fall on its face -- largely because her ideological and narcissistic soul mate Barack Obama cried wolf one too many times on race and people will be on guard against it regarding gender

Unfortunately she can’t pass for a woman.
She’s a demon straight from hell where Nixon is laughing his ass off.

Given what we know now about the Clinton Foundation raking
in big bucks while Hillary was privvy to ntl security secrets, her
well-rehearsed post-Benghazi performance before Congress is
straight out of a Shakespearean playbook.

"Methinks she protesteth too much."

Hoping I am careful and respectful when I mention her name in this forum, but when I read pieces like this I think of how dear Barbara must be looking down here and shaking her head incredulously (but probably ultimately not surprised with Hitlery and her recent antics concerning the emails, etc). It really is interesting to go into my personal library and re-read parts of “Hell to Pay” and see the highlights and themes from that book be so relevant even today.

Lezzie Dole might have gotten some media backing, but Lezzie Clinton is a Democrat, so "the time has come".

Women, even many women who think conservatively, will vote for Mrs. Bill because they will get from the campaign the gnawing feeling that if they don’t then they might be forced to be scullions and baby factories so they had better vote for the Beast just in case what she says is true. If Bill’s wife is not knocked out by physical incapacity or because she is in jail, she will win.

THE CONNIVING CLINTONS ARE FAR FROM DONE LINING THEIR POCKETS OFF "PUBLIC SERVICE": Besides using Hillary's vagina, the Clintons are climbing back into office, using privileges far beyond those of the liberal political base to which they plan to appeal---- "the community of color."

The mega-wealthy Clintons are relying heavily on Hillary's vagina AND "white privilege" to get back into office. "White privilege" denotes the array of advantages the Clintons have cultivated over years in public office. The gold-plated, endless perks of "white privilege" include:

<><> their personal massive wealth in the $2 billion range....

<><> ownership of multiple homes in posh enclaves....

<><> unknown secret offshore bank accounts...

<><> unrevealed investment profits...

<><> the chain of high public offices they've held....

<><> privileged friends in high places....

<><> global connections....

<><> constant affirmations of their own worth....

<><> greater social status...

<><> the expansive freedoms wealth and connections provide...

<><> unlimited access to the press to speak freely.....

<><> million dollar memoirs ....

<><> Dec 2000 book deal $8 million; 2014 book deal $14 mill....

<><> tax-exempt Clinton family foundations taking in foreign monies....

<><> Clinton Foundation "endowment" skyrockets to $200 million overnight....

<><> Hillary/Bill's endless $300,000 speeches.......

<><> Hillary's 24/7 chauffeur the last 20 years....

<><> Bill's tax-paid cushy pensions/benefits....

<><> tax-paid Clinton Library (Mideast potentate donors).....

<><> Chelsea's paid-for $10 million uber-condo.

2016 Hillary was relying on the "income equality" bugaboo to hoist herself into office......as good a definition of "white privilege" as any. The Clintons strategy is to label others as "different" while presenting themselves as "normal."

========================================

The Clinton "normal" is couple billion dollars laying around, accumulated without ever having a real job. The Never-Enough Clintons had planned to run a populist campaign, critical of the Wall Street types”....that's after the world was informed that speaker Hillary was pocketing $200,000 a throw from Goldman Sachs.....and other corporate giants.

============================================

THEY MADE WALL STREET PROUD The Clintons went from "dead broke" to multi-billionaires in an astonishing short period of time----without holding jobs. The greedy, mega-wealthy Clintons have money pouring in from everywhere without lifting a finger...said to be worth couple BILLION dollars.

Never-enough Bill/Hillary look to cash in w/ another go-round in the White House. The Clintons owe bigtime......money is pouring into their three tax-exempt foundations......and these donors expect payback.

===============================================

One of Hillary's standout qualifications (/snix) is that
she (and her unused vagina) gallantly stood by when
Billy got lubed in the Oval Office by Lewinski.

The main problem is that the majority of the American people associate Bill Clinton (and by extension Hillary) with the prosperity of the 1990’s and view them as being more in tune with and empathetic to the needs and concerns of the middle class.

With their desire to crush True Conservative candidates (in order to maintain their lucrative grip on the Republican Party) and their “me-too ism” liberal policies (budget, immigration) the GOPe has given conservatism a bad name.

So now, thanks to the GOPe, Americans view the Republican party (and to a lesser degree the conservative movement) as a collection of hypocrites, incompetents, and intolerant fools.

It seems like the GOPe’s plan is working out for them.
