CLEVELAND (AP) -- Hillary Rodham Clinton is drawing parallels between terrorists and the Republican presidential candidates when it comes to their views on women.
She says at an event in Ohio that Republican efforts to cut access to health centers and opposition to abortion rights are "extreme" and likens it to "terrorist groups" and "people who don't want to live in the modern world."
Clinton says the policies of Republican presidential candidates are "out of date and out of touch." She specifically cites candidates Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush and John Kasich.

The Republican National Committee quickly responds, accusing Clinton of equating her potential GOP opponents with terrorists and calls for her to apologize for "inflammatory rhetoric."

(14,093 posts)you know, the same people who cheered on Scott Walker for comparing labor unions protesting at his capital to mass murderers like ISIS
Will the "mainstream" media like Chuck Todd and Halperin play by Clinton Rules and demand an apology from Hillary, when they didn't from Walker?

Republicans would really appreciate it if 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton would refrain from the truth, especially as it pertains to their backward policies on women.
Video:
Former Secretary Clinton laid it on the line today at a rally in Ohio when she likened Republicans policies on women to those of terrorists treatment of women.
Now, extreme views about women, we expect that from some of the terrorist groups. We expect that from people who dont want to live in the modern world, Clinton said. But its a little hard to take coming from Republicans who want to be the president of the United States.
Copy that, Madame Secretary.
Unlike Republicans vague and conspiratorial complaints, Sec. Clinton got specific. She attacked former Florida Governor Jeb Bush for wanting to defund Planned Parenthood, she called out Florida Senator Marco Rubio for being against abortion even in cases of rape or incest, and then she moved on to slay even moderate appearing Ohio Governor John Kasich for banning state funding to rape crisis centers in Ohio.
Republicans were super upset. So upset that they fell back on their Planned Parenthood canard, even though what they are accusing Planned Parenthood of is legal, and the videos they have been breathlessly hawking were found to be surprise! edited and legally unreliable as evidence, and found unworthy of journalists attention. .....included tweets from Bush and Walker
