Clinton: Women ‘Will Be Primarily Burdened’ by Climate Change

BY: Paul Crookston Follow @P_Crookston February 5, 2018 3:01 pm

Two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said Monday that the effects of climate change will hurt women in particular.

Clinton participated in a Georgetown University panel where she responded to an audience question about the effects of climate change on women. In a response flagged by multimedia company Grabien, the former secretary of state told the Washington, D.C. audience that women’s lives all over the world would get worse because of climate change. She advised members of the audience to take steps such as planting more trees, but she also criticized the Trump administration for pulling out of the Paris climate accords.

"I do think that there needs to be more political pressure put on the current administration to get back into the Paris agreement," she said to loud applause.

"With respect to the rest of the world, I would say that particularly for women … they will bear the brunt of looking for the food, looking for the firewood, looking for the place to migrate to when all of the grass is finally gone as the desertification moves south and you have to keep moving your livestock or your crops are no longer growing," she said.

She named places all over the world where crops are "burning up in intense heat," and she advised partnering with international organizations to help.

"So yes, women once again will be primarily burdened with the problems of climate change," she said. "So look for international organizations to support."

She is exhausting. Predictable. Tiresome. Superficial. Vapid. In way over her head. A mental midget. Evil. Stupendously ambitious moron.

I thought blacks were to be primarily burdened. Is Hillary a racist for misappropriating the pain of global warming?

It will be the women looking for food and firewood? Because what, men will be doing something else besides providing food for their families? The governments that usurped men as head of the family can’t bring home the bacon? We have no fossil fuel to heat our homes during heatwaves?

I can’t make the connections.

They can wear fewer clothes if they aren't Hillary Clinton.

"With respect to the rest of the world, I would say that particularly for women … they will bear the brunt of looking for the food, looking for the firewood, looking for the place to migrate to when all of the grass is finally gone..."

The "rest of the world" she describes sounds astonishingly like places such as Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan - where the women already bear those burdens (and have for centuries). Is some sort of Islam - Climate Change relationship being hinted at? Think about it - the "deniers" vs. "believers" context is unmistakable. Don't worship at the mosque? Pay the Jizya (tax). Didn't adhere to the approved "carbon footprint"? Pay the carbon credits (tax). Hmm.

And right in the middle of it, the Paris Agreement was draining American dollars away to which parts of the world for "green" projects? I'l bet we can take a good guess.

It is worthwhile to listen to her whole rambling bullshit monolog. The Shrillary is sooo 1990’s. Clearly, to listen to her, she knows little or nothing, But then the camera cuts away to the audience, composed wholly of pubescent idiot girls, who all no doubt think very highly of themselves.

All in all, a great vignette of the pathology infecting the Body Politic..

Why in hell are we still hearing from this harridan? Does she really think anyone gives a crap what she has to say? Did she ever stop and consider that if anyone did care what she had to say she’d be in The White House and not Trump? I think this deluded, power hungry shrew intends to run again in 2020.

I had to look up “harriden”. Great descriptive word. I really hope she wins. Her comments show she learned nothing.
