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?’”

Yeah. Even though they had to cheat to make sure it happened. Rather a hollow achievement.

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.

Oh puke! This is a woman who got where she is because of her husband! He helped to grease the skids for her. She certainly didn’t pull herself up by her boot straps the way Margaret Thatcher did in becoming the first woman PM in Great Britain. The media is absolutely shameless in their butt licking of the Democratic Party. I don’t think they care anymore that the evidence of their collusion with them is overwhelming. It’s Hillary or bust for them.

She’s also cracked a few mirrors along the way.

What a shame that the “first woman” has to be Hillary Rotten Clinton .... the lying, cheating, corrupt to the core, blood-on-her-hands, traitor to her country, pervert/rapist enabling, life destroying, feminazi, pro baby killer lesbian ... and that’s just for starters ‘cause I know I left a few things out.

She is NO role model for young females in this country and neither is the ungrateful, cinder-block-on-her-shoulder, unAmerican Moochelle.

Even the concept is stupid. Other countries have had women leaders for centuries.

Hillary will be for the Presidency what Typhoid Mary was for nursing.

Yea, as long as they are willing to lie, cheat, steal, kill anyone in their way and have a sympathetic media willing to carry their water.....yep, what a wonderful message for the next generation of children. /s [spit]

And if she wasn't married to Bubba, we'd all be going..."Hillary who?".

And remember, she lost to a clean and articulate unknown, black, man.

And that's how you know it's rigged.

This metaphor in unison crud is getting real old, Media....you are all “on message” and we know why, it isn’t a secret anymore....and with someone so dishonest and corrupt, I am appalled but not suprised in the least.

Lest we forget: a “she” wasn’t historical enough for Drmocrats in 2008.

I’ve been saying it for years now: making History ...

(”History” in the sense of fulfilling some supposed grand narrative)

... is a poor reason to make history.

(or what actually happens)

The nitwits on the left are already dusting off the “she’s Historic” mantra.

They are a bunch of vapid gits who do so.

Pretty small ceiling - after all many women have been nominated by their parties as a presidential candidate before. But I guess it is a big step for the party that brought us segregation and the KKK.

This is hardly groundbreaking. Both Ferraro and Palin ran in the VP slot, and there have been plenty of woman leaders around the world. Some of them, like Thatcher, were clearly not ‘championed’ by the left that is now so excited about nominating someone who should actually be under indictment.

This stuff is confounding.

I coach teenagers. They don’t think like this. It would never occur to them that there is a ceiling of any kind, because they are all so damn entitled.

So the idea that this is a key moment that be remember in a generation of the day that.... Is silly
