Hillary Clinton stays silent on emails and swings the focus to gender equality

Former secretary of state sticks to script on opportunities for women as Ted Cruz and Scott Walker fill void left by her absence in Iowa with fresh attacks.

Hillary Clinton has again refused to acknowledge the email controversy swirling around her invisible campaign, attempting to take the high road on her core issues as Clinton loyalists continued to insist the email row was “all about nothing” and Democrats in early campaign battlegrounds grew tired of Clintonland’s wall of silence.

While Clinton took the stage in New York on Monday, the White House acknowledged that Barack Obama had sent messages to a personal email account used by his former secretary of state, the vetted contents of which have become an early test of a presidential run that is expected to begin next month.

Speaking alongside Melinda Gates - philanthropist and wife of Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates - at a second straight public event focused on the Clinton Foundation’s “No Ceilings” campaign, Clinton spoke indirectly to her base on women’s pay, science-and-technology education and climate change while obliquely ignoring a cavalcade of criticism from the right....

Look! Over there! See that snake? The same old diversion. Nothing ever changes from the RATS.

Ah, the “Gender Inequality” card now. The US has the finest gender equality in the world. Now it’s bad? Try the Middle East, China, Indonesia, Japan, Africa, most of Europe which is far behind the US. She is diverting attention because she knows this is going to destroy her chances

Gender equality. That’s a laugh.

If she doesn’t address the members of her base who called Sarah Palin a C*** and a B**** and told rape jokes about Sarah and her daughter, she’ll never close that “gender equality gap”.

“Gender” and “That Right Wing Conspiracy”, will be her entire press conference on her concealment of government records and property.

You know, “they did it”, and “women get abused and blamed”, and “my superior intelligence” crafted a far more secure environment for “MY” records, and “they are trying to kill the first woman’s chance to be prezzzzzz”.

What else? What else CAN she say?

Printing out 50,000 hard copy letters from the emails and delivering them to the archives wasn’t nice either.

Wonder what wound up in Sandy Berger’s socks and never made it to the archives.

Before long she’ll have to pivot to cookie recipes to avoid controversy.

Was gender equality important when she requested an additional $2 billion for Pakistan?

In Pakistan, over 70% of the women in jail are there because they were raped.

Nice going Hillary.

Hillary Clinton has worked for women and children...I am so sick of hearing that...She has done everything in her power to abort as many children as possible.

And she has ZERO support from Christian Women...

Christian women do NOT under any circumstances support Hillary Clinton...this is NOT even debatable.

People that attend Church may support Hillary and/or vote Democrat, but they are NOT Christian.

Hillary’s been permitted to wear men’s suits (albeit in gay men’s colors) and claim to be a woman despite universal revulsion by red-blooded males including her (ahem) husband.

I’d say she’s had her gender-equity cake and eaten it too.

PS - Melinda Gates was an office drone who slept her way to the very top. Her opinion on any political issue is worthless but on this issue it’s hypocritical as well.

Kind of funny... here are two women, who never accomplished a damn thing on their own, living in luxury way above any 'glass ceiling' one can imagine, who no one would have ever heard of if it weren't for their 'husbands.'

Yet Sarah Palin who actually accomplished things on her own is a 'officially defined' by the media as a jerk.

It's amazing how effective media spin can be.

Taking money from the Saudis is promoting gender equality...

I’m sure those lovely Obamabots are a figure in the millions of women not in the workforce, thanks to Dear Leader.
