Get it straight. The thrown money was a symbolic protest of her taking super PAC $$$

It's just like her detractors calling her $hillary.


Of course the marching orders out of Camp Weathervane is to twist it into something sexist. Funny how sexism is the first thing she uses. She's the sexist one.

[Chasstev365]

1. I Especially Love When Bill Clinton Tries to Play the Sexist Card

Proceed Mr. Former President!

[Yurovsky]

20. His behavior was unacceptable then...

it would land most men in JAIL today. And rightly so.

Not even Bill Cosby can escape social justice. Smart women who realize HRC is just an enabler will not vote for HRC.

[Chezboo]

44. But... but... but...

[tomm2thumbs]

2. there were women throwing money in case anyone wants to attack them as sexist

how does that contortion work exactly?

[riversedge]

3. Get this straight. It is poor optics for Bernie.

[Lone_Wolf]

7. Bernie has been a better defender of gender equality than Hillary ever has.

[Nonhlanhla]

17. I'm sorry, but that is nonsense

Bernie is good on gender equality in principle, but he does not have Hillary's track record on working for women's rights globally.

[Lone_Wolf]

19. All she's done is talk about it. She doesn't want to solve it because it takes away the gender card

[Nonhlanhla]

43. I realize you are in primaries mode

but the statements that Hillary has just been a talker on women's rights, and that Bernie is stronger, is just nonsense.

Here's some material for you:

[TCJ70]

4. I wish Hillary supporters were as quick...

...to notice her poor decision making habits as they are her gender.

[uponit7771]

10. Yeah, when she votes to corporations immunity for lawsuits... that's horrible :rolleyes:

[TCJ70]

22. That topic has been done to death...

...you know what that law says and no one has full immunity. Feel free to misrepresent it, though.

Any thoughts on Hillarys history of poor judgement?

[uponit7771]

24. No it hasn't, his vote is immoral at best even partial immunity for gun coprs is immoral

Sanders has no better judgement than Clinton

[TCJ70]

26. OK, not prosecuting legally operating businesses is immoral. Interesting...

...I'll match you, though, with a list for Hillary:

- NAFTA
- TPP
- Libya
- Crime Bill (admittedly a turd sandwich of a bill, but comparing Hillary's statements about it vs Bernie's tells the story)
- IWR

I'm sure there's more but 5 works for now.

[uponit7771]

27. None of those entities have exceptions for litigation procedures and there are a host of other

... things that Sanders has shown bad judgement on not just guns.

Either way, Sanders bag of bad is no less full than Clintons no matter how much he plays hollier than thou

[TCJ70]

28. Look, if you don't have any other examples besides guns, that's fine...

...just say so and get it over with.

[uponit7771]

31. I do,a whole host bu it changes nothing. Sanders panders himself as someone who can throw

... stones and has gotten pretty good at it to the point where there's nothing that can be shown to prove his bag of bad is no more light than hers.

So then it's a matter of effectiveness to me.... I've not seen that from Sanders, there are few examples of him leading any kind of revolution.

If he had some examples I don't think Clinton would have ran

[Warren DeMontague]

5. No, it means they were implying that they think her limo is like a stripper.

They are objectifying that chauffeur-driven black town car just like it's some sort of hooters waitress!!!

[Jitter65]

6. Ahhhh, but it's the "optics" as the BS supporters like to say. A nasty optics. nt

[Bluenorthwest]

40. The 'optics' of your transparency page are nasty optics....

[Barack_America]

8. Bernie had another huge rally. This is the diversion.

[geek tragedy]

11. If we chose Presidents via "battle of the bands"

he'd be in great position.

[Barack_America]

15. As would Hillary if the media dismissed substance and played...

"Gotcha" topic of the day....

Oh wait.

[geek tragedy]

18. Hillary is winning New York because the voters prefer her. nt

[Barack_America]

25. And we all know that media bias plays no role in that!

Imagine what a mess our country would be!

[geek tragedy]

33. the media is heavily biased against Clinton, she gets more negative press than Trump does.

New York doesn't go for idealists and dreamers at the ballot box.

[uponit7771]

14. None of these rallies are big enough to motivate people to vote for him enough to overcome

... Hillary's lead

[Barack_America]

21. Keep telling yourself that.

[uponit7771]

23. He's losing popular and delegate votes, I'll let reality tell me that

[uponit7771]

9. But berniebros don't get the benefit of the doubt because they've been disgusting throughout primary

[Lone_Wolf]

12. BernieBros is a sexist taunt. EOM

[Bluenorthwest]

36. Your transparency page is disgusting. All you do is type smears and slurs all day.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=profile&uid=216668&sub=trans

[uponit7771]

42. Flattery will get yah no where's man, I wear that as a badge of honor seeing how many AA's on DU...

... were alert stalked.

[geek tragedy]

13. Okay, they just look like over privileged idiots, not sexists. nt

[Bluenorthwest]

37. This looks like privilege to me: Posts hidden by Jury: 12

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=profile&uid=144296&sub=trans


It's interesting how many of the posters in this thread claiming 'those others' are crass and biased have blazing hot transparency pages full of invective and name calling and outlandish extreme verbiage.

Everyone should read it.

[NightWatcher]

16. Of course it's sexist. All of the money had pictures of men on them

[JackRiddler]

29. This is a non-issue amplified in the Hillaryverse online.

The TV is covering it the way it was meant and of course are not linking it to the other non-story of somebody elsewhere said "corporate whore" to describe politicians (oh, the humanity!). One thing TV might understand better than the Hillaryverse is pound-for-pound effectiveness of media price. $1K, mostly recovered, generates loads of media with clear messaging. Clooney ends up as spokesperson for admitting money in politics is obscene.

[Lil Missy]

30. That wouldn't have happened with a man. Not to mention VERY BAD optics.

[Tom Rinaldo]

32. When the Yippies showerd dollars down onto the stock exchange floor

almost every one of the money crazed brokers who grabbed for them were men. It was great optics. Now if you are saying that women have to be treated different then men because they are women, what does one call that?

[Luminous Animal]

35. Google FIFA boss money shower. Yes. A man was showered

with money in a protest against corruption.

[Bluenorthwest]

39. Here is it, happening to to a man in July of last year, it was international news....

[Blue_Adept]

34. SHOCK: People view things differently

And both can be right.

[VulgarPoet]

38. Please, you could sneeze wrong within 200m of $hillary

and her supporters would swarm you decrying you as a misogynistic neo-Nazi islamophobic Trump supporter. You act like the rules somehow changed within a week.

[Dem2]

41. $hillary isn't a w****?

I think these "explanations" are so transparent, it's as if we all be come slow of mind near an election.

[BreakfastClub]

45. It was an embarrassing spectacle and it hurts democrats up and down the ballot

when Hillary is derided for raising money to win democratic seats. Foolhardy nonsense. Shame on them.
