Cheryl Strayed: Someday, a 'Nasty' Woman Like Hillary Clinton Will Win
Time Magazine ^ | October 3, 2017 | Cheryl Strayed

Posted on 10/03/2017 11:23:08 AM PDT by slowhandluke

My kids didn’t have school the day after Donald Trump won the presidential election and eventually, near noon, they came into my room to see what was wrong with me. Perhaps they’d come to me at their father’s prompting. Perhaps they’d heard me weeping. They’d never seen me this way before. Inconsolable.

“Hillary didn’t lose!” I insisted, as they sat on the bed around me, even as Hillary’s voice drifted into the room — her concession speech, on the radio downstairs, my husband shouting up, “Honey, you should come listen to this!”

I would not listen. I would never listen. The sound of Hillary Clinton conceding to Donald Trump is what compelled me to rise at last, if only to shut my bedroom door.

A liberal goes off the rails when reality intrudes on her fantasy.

http://www.anonymousconservative.com/blog/ writes about the psychological phenomenon of amygdala hijack. Such folks have a mental map of reality that is simply wrong, and go off the rails when they finally figure out that reality isn't what they expect.

This woman shouldn't be let near guns, nor the voting booth.

Someday, some worthy woman will win.

It will not be Hillary.

What concession speech?

And how does a voice that sounds like nails on a chalkboard "drift"?

Hillary is a nasty woman. Some day, a decent woman will win, and I am more than okay with that. Whether it’s President Palin, President Haley (after fixing her wobble on Amnesty), or another woman, what matters are her values not her XX chromosomes.

Let us all hope not. Actually, Hillary was such a pill that she has probably destroyed any chance for a female president, at least on the Dem side, for some time to come.

Now for the GOP...I’m saying Haley might be our next candidate. But that’s because we’re not freaky gender-obsessed loons like Hillary and her gang. We just vote for the best person.

But not this day. And that's a good thing.

Makes you wonder how many marriages have been forever ruined by one partner’s intolerance that the other one voted for Trump. Years from now, such a person may finally have stepped out of their foggy mental funk. They will wonder ‘how did this happen? Why didn’t anybody stop me from making a fool of myself?”

This woman is a sad example of the "modern" ideology of Progressivism--an ideology which, when articulated by Hillary and Obama, has a hypnotizing and mesmerizing effect on the minds of women.

There is nothing "progressive" about such a way of living. Progressives, in positions of government power, are backward thinking elitists whose sole goal is achieving power for themselves--just as previous Kings, Emperors and Dictators have done. A woman overcome with that desire for power is equally distasteful.

Just think: even the title of Hillary's "book," suggests (even confirms?) her backward-looking, uninspiring ideology--Progressivism!

Imagine being an American colonist in 1776!

All around you are thousands of other colonists who look to the future, citing Creator-endowed individual liberty for every person under a form of self-government based on "Natural law," or, "the laws of Nature."

Yet, your neighbor (who likes to be the center of attention and self-described "defender" of special groups she selects as "worthy" of rights), declares she knows what is best for everybody and that she does not recognize the votes of those "deplorable" persons who reject her form of "Progressive" power over people (for their own good, you know).

As colonists, you and your 18th Century friends whose ancestors have braved an ocean and a wilderness in order to raise their families in freedom from oppressive government, write a Declaration of Independence from that government's oppression, and resolve to live like free people who can chart their own future, under God's Providence, and receive "the Blessings of Liberty."

Yet, there stands that know-it-all neighbor, screaming and pointing to herself, shouting, "What Happened?"--as she watches real progress take place among those neighbors she has called "deplorable" and "unredeemable."

She looks pretty silly and shallow, don't you think?

Seriously, I think this woman needs therapy. And her kids will too someday.

It’s a tragedy. A tragedy that Time won’t allow comments.
Else this deranged peanut would get the roasting she deserves.

Too late - we've already had eight years of that America-hating b!tch Obama.
