Nets Cheer ‘Happy Tears’ for Hillary as ‘Political Glass Ceiling Is Shattered’
MRC NewsBusters ^ | July 27, 2016 | Scott Whitlock

Posted on 07/27/2016 5:40:03 AM PDT by Hojczyk

The networks on Tuesday night cheered the floor of the Democratic National Convention being “covered with shards of glass” as Hillary Clinton prompts “historic,” “happy tears.” ABC opened live coverage of the 10pm hour with triumphant music and an announcer who proclaimed, “Right now, here in the City of Brotherly Love, you're looking at history... The political glass ceiling, shattered.”

Reporter Cecilia Vega praised, “After what happened here today, there will be a generation of children who will grow up knowing that a woman can have a shot at the White House in this country.”

Evening News anchor Scott Pelley on CBS began by extolling, “Night two of the convention, the floor is covered with shards of glass. Hillary Clinton has shattered another ceiling for women.” He breathlessly related, “What a historic night for America. The Democrats have nominated a woman to be the 45th president of the United States, Hillary Rodham Clinton.”

On NBC, Nightly News anchor Lester Holt framed Clinton around America’s founding: “History in the birth place of American democracy. Hillary Clinton shatters a barrier, becoming the first woman to win the nomination of a major U.S. party.”

NBC veteran Tom Brokaw said of the candidate’s husband: “The question is can this magician of American politics, Bill Clinton, take something else out of the hat and say, ‘This is the real Hillary?’”

She is still just Bill Clinton’s wife

Hilly’s voice shatters glass, so the analogy is apt; she didn’t break the glass ceiling, she screeched at it until it imploded.

Pity the Democrats can’t find one attached to a Clinton.

What’s next for them? An openly “transgender woman” plus Muslim-gay-furry VP ticket for 2020?

“City of Brotherly Love?” There just has to be something wrong with that. Some aggression or anti LBGT-XYZ thing.

Brilliant! ...and what Michael Jackson was for daycare!

Agreed. But this is the mentality of years of being trained to think neo-con big daddy world policeman. Instead of a strong nation-state prepared to project power if necessary the Democratic and Republican Parties, the establishments, have projected world globalist leader. Oh such a vaunted position! Dictate to everybody else how to live while the house around is crumbling.

< Of course the fact she is a sexual deviant, criminal conspirator, utterly incompetent, and a raging demon are of little consequence given her presumed femininity. Silly me. Loss of femininity is the price of shattering the glass ceiling. May it rain thunderbolts on her convention’s coronation.

Her coven must be casting magic spells to zombify people to make them vote for her.

Everyone else gets their eyes filled with glass shards for her to get there. Just the little people, no worry.
