"I actually almost feel pity for HRC..."

Whoaaaaa, Maggie.
Too far. LOL

"...she stuck it out with old Billy Boy, only to have her presidential dreams dashed, and left only with an emasculated SOS role."

Listen HRC's presidential dreams were dashed when she did not publicly emasculate the mutt, Maggie.

Had HRC come out and said, "I won't take it! Not from THAT man. NOT even from a POTUS! OUTA HERE, Y'BUM!!" ??

Think of what might've been the reactions, from both sides of the ideological spectrum?
Would've shown character, real strength & *a* righteousness as rare as hen's teeth.
Not the polar opposite: a pathetic politician ready, willing & quite able to do whatever it takes so long as HER ends are justified.

Personally?
The Faustian Deal she made I consider Divine Guidance, in our favor. Talk about rare. LOL

Nevertheless HRC painted herself the despicable creature she really is.
Praise the Lord! ;^)

Giggle. I said, I'm "almost" moved to pity. And, I'm not inclined to do anything like show kindly concern for her or any of that...

Rep Corrine Brown of Florida's must hear/see speech “gradulating” Meyers on the BSC championship win last year ........has to be one of the dumbest human beings I’ve ever heard speak publicly.

Mmmmmm..........that IS dumb.

But I betcha Corrine wasn't educated at Harvard...... like Sheila was. LOL.

Actually I think Sheila received her undergrad degree at Yale, but pretty much the same thing. ;^) And no, Corinne went to Florida A&M

Welllllll, OK.
Was worried, knee jerk & all that. {g}

"And, I'm not inclined to do anything like show kindly concern for her or any of that..."

Good.
It's just so rare seeing anyone get their just desserts anymore, these days. That is, unless they're a *conservative*. LOL

FTA:

Those “18 million cracks in the glass ceiling” will hopefully make other women’s journeys in politics easier in the future, but sometimes I am not so sure...

Oh, horrors! I started reading the article again!!!

No, MeggieMac, HRC's "journey" will not make it eaiser for anyone else. If anything, it reinforces the sterotype of having to "close your eyes" to what is going on in your marriage/life at home in order to become a "success."

Other, far better writers have commented on the trade-offs that every woman makes who works "outside the home" (and I don't mean "outside the home office" ;) )

"Oh, horrors! I started reading the article again!!!"

Just had to, didn'tcha.
Is that any way to start a new day?
Hmmmmmm?
Well I've a little surprise of my own for you, at the bottom. When I'm finished with what you were apparently compelled to resurrect! LOL

"No, MeggieMac, HRC's 'journey' will not make it eaiser for anyone else. If anything, it reinforces the sterotype of having to 'close your eyes' to what is going on in your marriage/life at home in order to become a 'success.'"

BWWWWWWHAAAAAA!!!!
Y'know what, Maggie-girl?
I'm old enough, been around.
I get that inference, yes I do. :o)

"Other, far better writers have commented on the trade-offs that every woman makes who works 'outside the home' (and I don't mean 'outside the home office' ;) )"

Yes you're absolutely correct, they have.
In fact, I'm married to one.

But now time to deliver on my promisthreat, above? LOL
Frooooooooom the article:

"I have often wondered how the media would react if it were my brother writing these columns and speaking out on behalf of moderate Republicans. I can pretty much bet that his weight wouldn’t have been an issue."

Ahhhhhh.
Ummmmmm.
Dahhhhlin' Meghan?
Why don'chu ask Rush 'bout that? LOL

Just got a call from SEIU. Seems another 65 year old man in Thousand Oaks, California needs his finger bitten off. Round trip, all expenses paid. See y’all later.

"Just got a call from SEIU."

Was *collect*, wasn't it.
Why'd you answer?
You've just got to get Caller ID, my friend. :o)

"Seems another 65 year old man in Thousand Oaks, California needs his finger bitten off."

Oh?

"Round trip, all expenses paid. See y’all later."

So it had to be you, huh.
Helluva great patriot, steph.
Well, beats the snot outa losing your head. LOL

Actually, I stopped reading the article (for the 2nd time) shortly after the "Hillary's journey" part. Bleeeech.

You are correct, Landru, Rush's weight would not be an issue if he were not conservative. Case in point...that El Slobo, Michael Moore...

I am wearing that pleasant, slightly bemused smile reserved for when I haven't the faintest idea what people are saying.

Last month a young SEIU thug was walking towards an older man(65) menacingly, like he was going to hit him, so the 65 year old man hit the thug first.HARD......right in the nose! The “rough tough” SEIU thug did the manly thing....he bit the older man’s finger off.

Yes...that happened, IIRC, at a health care rally...

Well, carry on with your busy day...
