Folks, let’s admit that it was not a very tasteful comment.
We may despise Hillary and Bill but we ought not be nasty when it comes to Chelsea.

Wow, if that was “nasty”, we’ve gone pretty far down the PC road. Ouch!

I have a question for you:

Did Bill Clinton use Arkansas State Troopers to procure women for his sexual trysts?
A yes or no answer please.

I dissent on that. If Chelsea is out campaigning for her Mom, as a "politician", then she is fair game for criticism in a political sense. If she was just the 'former first child' and some schlock reporter asked her about her Mom's chances then that would be a different thing, but she isn't ... Chelsea is out there campaigning actively as a political operative, therefore she is fair game. Nuff said.

Chelsea represents Hillary in a national Presidential campaign.

If she doesn’t have the stomach for it, she should quit.

Where’s the sarcasm tag? There’s nothing tasteful in having separate rules for the Arkansas Mafia.

Agreed but her daddy is a manwhore!

The Left and especially the Clintons have re-defined ‘nasty’ so far down that the comment was practically a compliment.

“Using” their daughter is exactly what they are doing. To “use” someone for your own personal gain because you have some tangential control over them is ‘pimping’ whether it is for sex or whether you are ‘race pimping’ for a cause or whether you are using your child because A. it reminds people that you are a mother, and we all know that this world would be much better if it were led by mothers and grandmothers (as Pelosi has stated), and B. trying to sucker the youth vote with a 28-year old.

We need to learn the art of political warfare. Being polite when they are handing you your head on a plate does no one any good.

Sounds as if she is actively campaigning. That makes her fair game. If she wants her privacy respected, then she should stay private.

Yes, it was.

But that's no reason for a guy to wind up in Fort Macy Park some day in the future?

They weren’t making remarks about Chelsea; they were making remarks about her parents pimping her out and that’s what they are doing.

Now Chelsea is a big girl now; and should know what’s going on.

True. Besides, Chelsea did remark that she wasn’t ‘taking dates’.

Now Bill. He’s the one that Hillary has been pimping out.

I’m pretty sure Chelsea is an adult. She is a willing participant in the Clinton crime family.

Wait a minute.

The comment was not an attack on Chelsea but on her pimp mommy and daddy.

The point is that the remark wasn't about Chelsea..it was about those who were using her. A whore is a whore..a Pimp is the one who manages and uses her for personal profit. BTW is the First Amendment lost somewhere in the National Archives?

Agreed.

I think the thing most people take issue with is that the guy got suspended and everything. If he'd made that same comment about the child of a Republican, he'd have probably gotten a pay raise.
