man or woman. Also, just in sheer numbers, the congress has way more male corporate whores than female.

(14,177 posts)It turns out there are a lot of them in my family only on the down low most the time. We had a family event 9 years ago where it was revealed that among us cousins the vast majority were bastards, but our parents pretended to be married in quite elaborate ways.

(1,065 posts)whore? Because the guy who said it didn't even mention her name?

(1,511 posts)By insinuating that it was directed at her they are implying that must see her as a corporate sellout, kind of Rorschached. But still not a fan of the word....but what just blew my mind is you can say it on the radio and TV from what I can tell. It does not seem to be a censored word? I will skip placing a link on this one just because it would be rude.

(1,511 posts)But I also oppose using language that will fracture a candidates message they are supporting. He opened the window to the "media professionals the sell their services for money" to attack Bernie. You see what I did there, same meaning, but with no need for a trigger warning. That's what he should have said. Not sure who will react to this since the HRC camp has already numbed most voters to her stream of attacks, from popegate to waving the Sandy-Hook victims on her flag pole.

We are right to despise them.

We could sing cumbaya, or attempt to say what we mean, or just let anger turn full on multi language, regional word plays, into a chaotic free for all and just let others sort it all out

(19,926 posts)You guys set back the women's movement everytime you play the gender card.
The word "whore" in this context has NOTHING to do with gender. Just as the term "post whore" doesn't either.

(20,176 posts)Personally, my opposition to her is because she's for-sale to corporate interests...so I don't owe her or any woman an apology for being opposed to Clinton's candidacy and wanting her run out of the Democratic party.
In fact, working towards that result may be both the most progressive and the most humane thing I do most days. Let's be honest, being a trust fund kid doesn't yield many opportunities for human decency.

(10,565 posts)is in middle management that makes $70K? $80K? $90K? Someone that spends their working life making a good living working for a corporation? Someone that starts a corporation successfully. This shit of broad brushing large numbers of people as evil that one of the candidates practices is a sign of a campaign that is based on bumper sticker slogans. Substance free.
