“After all if you vote for B Hussein Obama you’re a chauvinist pig. And if you vote for Hillary you’re a racist.”

Well, I’ll vote for neither then!!!!

Did Balok call someone sweetie?

What’s he doing there - ordering up some tranya?

[mimaw]

A lot about nothing. All these pathetic women tying their fortunes to Hillary Clinton. Had she not married Bill Clinton she would not be a senator or a nominee. My advise to them is get over it. When the right woman for the presidency comes along she will be elected easily. As to Obama’s sweetie remark I heard it all my life and never felt offended.

[Fran B]

I happened to see the video of the incident and Obama made his remark in a very condescending, dismissive way!

[hosepipe]

I use sweetie, deary and my dear all the time....
And if, "they" don't like it, I don't care..

coupled with brushing off her question.

Where is it written that one must respond to every question, just to satisfy some chick's idle curiosity?

[jennyjenny]

The chick was a reporter trying to do her job by asking him a question on his policy re: helping the auto workers. It proved to be too tough for the rock star.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Only a totally radicalized femnazi douche bag would write a article like this. I know the only reason Roger Ailes uses her on Fox is because so is so totally repulsive she turns people away from the Democrats.

[DaveyB]

If she, the reporter, had replied "that's ok boy - I understand it's just the way you talk..." There would be hell to pay.

Sweetie good - boy bad!

[junta]

Feminism is kaput its demographic sliver is smaller and smaller each year and it is in coalition with the racial/ethnic hustlers who give it no respect.

[elizabetty]

This may not have ever gotten play if he did not fail to keep his promise to talk to her later.

[swain_forkbeard]

I certainly would not go there boldly or any other way.

[massgopguy]

Because they were told they could have it all and it wasn’t true.

[massgopguy]

Susan looks like she has a serious jag on in the first shot.

[Perfesser]

“After all if you vote for B Hussein Obama you’re a chauvinist pig. And if you vote for Hillary you’re a racist.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I can’t wait to see which one I’m gonna be.

[massgopguy]

That’s Ron Howard’s brother.

[carmody]

He would have been better off pretending to not hear the question rather than dismissing her with 'sweetie.' Nothing wrong with terms of endearment but this one amounted to a pat on the head. As in, "Go away little girl." (cue Donny Osmond)

In the meantime, what is his answer the question? Sweetie is still waiting.
