So, Hillary is responsible for de Blasio, but Bernie isn't responsible for Dr. Song, is that right?

[KitSileya]

That seems to be the gist of the discussions these last days. That Hillary is an utter racist for not speaking up when de Blasio used the expression "cp time", while it's no problem that Bernie thanked Dr. Song for his excellent introduction wherein he called Hillary and other Democrats "corporate democratic whores."

Nice to know that hypocrisy is alive and well.

1. LOl.. aren't you dizzy?

[Cheese Sandwich]

2. Hillary has a pattern and long history of racially insensitive jokes and comments.

That's a huge problem.

3. hillary actively participated in a scripted skit. bernie agreed that the damn corporate whores have

to go.
She was wrong, he is right

[beam me up scottie]

4. ZOMG!!! Dr. Song told a racist joke and Bernie participated???

I thought he just used a common expression to describe corrupt politicians?

SOMEBODY CALL CONGRESS RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!

[mythology]

5. Yes, Song used a common sexist phrase

[beam me up scottie]

8. Corporate whore is not a sexist phrase, nice try. It's been used here for years.

Fun fact: most corporate whores are men.

[TM99]

9. So corporate whores is a common sexist phrase

that is used here and has been since 2001.

Why are you posting at such a misogynistic site?

14. By the 6th grade, they should have taught myth that most words have more than one meaning.

.


Merriam-Webster (the one literary folks use, not Wiki, not Dictionary.com, etc)

Whore:
3) a venal or unscrupulous person


Venal:
capable of being bought or obtained for money or other valuable consideration
open to corrupt influence and especially bribery

10. Whore is gender neutral, I am a huge whore, you can look me up on Grindr

[dchill]

12. Men are men. Women are women.

Whores are whores. There's no sexism involved. As usual.

[geek tragedy]

6. Hillary is also a pretty much a murderer according to Rosario Dawson.

Said "too many people have died because of who is currently running."

Sanders is running a nasty, toxic nihilistic campaign while demagoguing idealists.

Hope for a BIG win on Tuesday to restore some sanity.

11. According to one of Hillary's surrogates Anti-Semitism is perfectly acceptable:

[TM99]

7. Y'all the hypocrites.

Dr. Song even apologized, though he had no need to given he used a common phrase that has appeared here often since at least 2001.

Did Hillary or de Blasio? Nope.

The Clintons have a history of racist dog-whistles and frankly out right racism.

Try again!

[Kalidurga]

13. Hillary is responsible for taking part in a racist skit

And Bernie is responsible for Dr. Song. And I am not afraid of the Corporate Whore phrase. I agree with it fact. For example Hillary is a corporate whore for taking big oil money and promoting fracking.

[m-lekktor]

15. wow

[pat_k]

16. Bernie wasn't doing a skit with Dr. Song.

Get a grip.

Using the term at a campaign rally was very poor judgment. But the faux outrage is annoying.

On Edit: And, the primary reason it was poor judgment in the context is the fact that I gives the noise machine an opening to create a faux "scandal" and distract from what matters in this campaign.

[Joob]

17. Yeah he clearly calls Hillary a Corporate Democratic whore. Wait, no.. That's Hillary supporters

calling her that.
