"Why is humor at the expense of Hillary Clinton something of a national pastime now?" laments the subheader to a teaser headline on MSNBC.com's front page today, "Why comics have a field day with Hillary."
In the story itself, MSNBC's Adam Howard complaints that Hillary is the victim of "sexism" and cartoonish caricatures of her character, rather than on "facts" (emphasis mine):
The former first lady and current 2016 presidential candidate is depicted here and in virtually every other American comedy routine as a scheming careerist who sees her husbands rise to power as little more than a springboard for her own ambition. Its a compelling comedic conceit, albeit one largely based on public projections instead of facts. Despite the inherent sexism in virtually all the spoofs, the parodies have endured because they are often quite funny and voters may suspect they contain a kernel of truth.

Hee-Hee, it's going to be fun watching the mocking increase this election cycle.
National sport...more fun than baseball!
Where’s the picture of the guy crying to “Leave Hillary alone!”
Did they have the same concern when GWB was being mocked?
We’d mock MSNBC if we or anyone could stand to watch it.
"Mr. Speaker, The President of the United States"
And this walks out..............
A you beat me to it. Nobody ever mocked GW, and nobody, certainly, ever dreamed of mocking Sarah Palin. Oh no, everyone has been saving it up for Poor Hillary.
Poor babies. This is funny, love it. I hope they spend a lot of time pushing this whine.
She is rather mockable, among other things.
We can all take pleasure in the mockery that Hillary has become. But remember, we are now outnumbered as voters. More than 50% of this nation depends on the government in some way for their livelihood (Employment, SS, Healthcare, foodstamps, housing, cell phones, welfare, pensions, etc.). They are not ALL bad people. But if we don’t do the voter turnout thing (like having a conservative candidate), Hillary could stab Bill in the heart on the Senate floor and still win the POTUS election.
MSNBC and Hillary are both worthy of mockery.
The Great Pumpkin!
Looks like she’s still a PIAPS. And orange! Please.
Believe me, if there were any accomplishments out there, we wouldn’t hear any mocking of Hillary. Without any facts to report on and analyze, her character and demeanor are all we have to go on. Hillary is not a very likable individual. Can you imagine yourself having a two way conversation with her?
Exactly. If anything, they and CNN kept egging on the rest of the MSM to go after and ridicule W at every opportunity.
If one is not mocking her, the only thing left is to discuss indicting her. Personally, I prefer the later.
Serious nightmare. I really don’t believe she is electable.
Maybe because she’s a hypocritical, smarmy, lying, foul-mouthed bitch?
