Donna Brazile: The sexist attack on Valerie Jarrett
CNN ^ | November 11, 2014 | Donna Brazile

Posted on 11/11/2014 8:30:41 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

After the past week's political upheavals in Washington and around the country, we are reminded that certain things remain constant in politics. Unfortunately, one of those things is the sexism leveled at any woman who rises to power in the White House -- under presidents of either party.

No sooner was the hunt on for a fall guy for the Democratic midterm losses than some in the press predictably went after a fall gal -- President Barack Obama's senior adviser, Valerie Jarrett.

Reporter Carol Felsenthal in Politico and others have decided that the best way to address Democratic losses is to have a "shake-up" at the White House, and the person they most want to see shaken out is Jarrett.

She is pilloried for everything from run-ins with other staffers to playing herself in a cameo role on CBS' "The Good Wife." That's how much they object to the job Valerie Jarrett is doing -- they don't even want her doing it in the fictional realm. The Politico story, headlined "Fire Valerie Jarrett, even notes that "nobody knows precisely what Jarrett does in the White House." But whatever it is, it's wrong enough that she needs to be fired....

Did Donna Brazille ever find out how the Gore Campaign was able to come up with $115,000 to pay Bill Daley to merely advise the campaign after telling her they could only come up with $37,000 to pay her to run it?

Misread the tile; I thought it said, “The sexiest man in the White House is Valerie Jarrett.” Sorry Donna Brazile, ValJar maybe the one who thinks for Dear Leader, Obamination, but she's more like Diana, leader of the lizard aliens in the TV series “V”. She's all evil, all of the time.

I’m surprised they didn’t claim it was an islamophobic attack as well.

They just throw every card out there they’ve got, hoping something will stick.

I have noticed that she does have a reptilian look. George Noory should have one of his experts check her out.

I don’t think anyone has attacked her for being a woman.

She's a woman? Fooled me.

Note to Donna. The “ism” charges if you so much as mention a person’s actions that is in the White House with anything except praise are so yesterday! No one except career politicians listen to this stuff anymore! Even they don’t, but they pretend to. ha.

I didn’t know she is black.
First time I saw her I was reminded of the first 3-D movie I saw years ago,
Creature From the Black Lagoon. Valerie playing the creature.

exactly...why didn’t she say it was “racist” too?

Donna is one of the biggest idiots I’ve ever seen plastered on TV. Every single one of her conclusions is emotional at the core without any truth or proof.

It really “sets me off “ when Laura Ingraham tells us how “wonderful” DB is.

Donna need not worry. There is no way that Soros will let the real president be demoted. President Jarrett is there for the long haul.

... they are switching over to “sexist” for the next couple of days at least.

***
I suspect the “sexist” nonsense will be in all of the talking points for quite a while if the Progressives are ginning up a run for Hitlery.

yes...always predictable. For progressives/libtards/commies/Marxists/socialists, you can never disagree with their policies. You are either sexist, if you disagree with a progressive woman, racist if you disagree with a black man, sexist/racist if you disagree with a black woman, homophobic if you disagree with an LGBT.

In their minds they are always right and everyone else is too stupid to understand them. In this case, Donna Brazile is the most ignorant black woman in politics. Just sayin!

As usual, the real story is in the top comments, which slam both Jarrett and CNN.

No it’s because she’s a Marxist although an ugly one which most are.

Yes! Algore is another one. He’s from the dumb side of their planet though.
