i really hate it when you make me voice commentary for a side with which i am not alligned.
yes, sen clinton showed her ass, once again, with (another) assassination comment. this was rather foolish of her. this was rather cruel of her. this was a fantastically angry-makaing move on her part. but it was also news-worthy. and any mention of a name is still a mention of a name.
while i agree she needs to get the fuck out of the race already, i do NOT now or have i ever supported the misogyny that is eeking out throughout the web or political world/s.
"monster" is probably too strong of a word. i prefer "dumbass".
"bitch" has absolutely no place here, neither does "witch" nor "cunt" nor any other female-centric word.
mocking her age or her looks only makes you look like a jerk, maybe even a bigot.
making class-bashing comments regarding hillary's supporters is pathetic and isolating and gives credence to her claims of elitism.
so stop it. just stop all of it.
let clinton, clinton, & co. make their own messes. they do not need your help.
comment away on those disasters as they happen, but watch your language to the same extent you expect anyone else to watch theirs.
when you try to fight "isms" with "isms" and stupidity with stupidity, no one wins (except maybe the evildoerstm, aka mc cain & co. but i'm pretty sure there's a pact with beelezebub to explain that.)
so, please, stop it.
p.s. and i really wish the word "lame" would stop being mis-used already. nothing hillary, or any other politician or pundit or follower, has said or done has been "lame".
