seriously, that's what it is

Because the war on women meme worked out so well for us last year I can't see any reason for it to fail now.

Morons on our side of the aisle didn't vote.

I would also point out a a general election electorate looks very different than a mid term electorate and one tweet doesn't equal a candidate's entire platform.

Look, everyone knows that what you put on social media is the truest of true and can only be backed by giving 100 percent of everything you do to that topic. Okay, just joking. Of course, this one tweet does not mean her campaign will be almost solely based on the unfair treatment of women.

tax the rich!
stop the wall street siphoning of the middle class
no war!!!
jobs rebuilding, repairing the infrastructure of the country - bridges, roads, water systems, etc.

no keystone xl pipeline - ever!
energy sustainability and carbon free infrastructure
insure a safer, not toxic food supply
re-instate safe, birth control & well woman care access for every woman in every state
etc.
etc.
???????

Women's rights should be addressed and fought for but there are a lot of other issues that need to be addressed as well. It should be one of several.

"YOU FUCKING IDIOTS!! GET OVER HERE AND HELP ME RULE YOU!!" is a wonderful campaign slogan. I'm surprised it isn't used more often.

do more so this time. Just a feeling.

for Hillary to bowl over repuke misogeny.

I think Oprah made that expression famous, IDK.

She'll chomp those morans and have a good time doing it!

Revenge is best served cold, or as President

By Jonathan Shroyer - Jun 13, 2013

History will look at Hillary Clinton as someone who never gave up and continued to succeed, despite being knocked down over and over again. She will be seen as a polarizing trailblazer who finally found her voice - leading to eventual success as First Lady, Senator, and Secretary of State.

Once in positions of power, Hillary is ruthless when it comes to effectively advocating for her positions and destroying the opposition. This is why Republicans have fought (and failed) to stop her political career from climbing to new heights.

Hillary's resilience is unparalleled. She bounces back in the face of defeat because she's smart, articulate, and tough.

Many of Hillary's colleagues have often noted that she is almost always the most knowledgeable person in the room about any given issue. Her knowledge, persistence, and stamina is an unstoppable combination. Her perseverance, despite being attacked daily for the last 30 years, is a testament to her political skill and brilliance.

Former President Bill Clinton, the other half of this political powerhouse, often describes Hillary as the most competent person in his generation. I couldn't agree more. So although she may have been too polarizing to win the Presidency in 2008, we can all be certain that if given the opportunity, she would have been one of the most competent and successful President's in our lifetime. And I hope she is given another chance in 2016.

Hillary Clinton:

"I really don't spend a lot of time worrying about what people think about me... I would be totally paralyzed. How could you get up in the morning if you worried about some poll or what somebody said about you? That's giving up power over your life to somebody else, and I don't intend to do that."

"Every moment wasted looking back keeps us from moving forward. Life is too short, time is too precious, and the stakes are too high to dwell on what might have been."

"I'm not going to mislead anybody. Politics is really hard. And it is harder for women. There's a double standard, and you can't complain about it. You just have to accept it, and be smart enough to navigate it. And you have to have a pretty tough skin. To paraphrase a favorite quote from Eleanor Roosevelt: If a woman wants to be in politics, she has to have the skin of a rhinoceros. Most men who go into politics just think they're great. They believe they can do anything. Most young women, not only in politics but in most areas, are more cautious and more likely to say, 'Could I really do this? Am I good enough?' I was talking to a friend and very successful businessman the other day, and he said, 'The thing that still annoys me more than anything is that I see all these young women who are so much more capable than they allow themselves to believe. And I see so many young men who are so much less capable but who believe they are God's gift to the world.' I would just say to women: Try it! Put your foot in the pond and see if you want to swim."

"Occasionally I'll be sitting somewhere and I'll be listening to someone perhaps not saying the kindest things about me. And I'll look down at my hand and I'll sort of pinch my skin to make sure it still has the requisite thickness I know Eleanor Roosevelt expects me to have."

"When you stumble, keep faith. And when you're knocked down, get right back up, and never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on."

And her statement are not about 'promoting herself' or 'apologizing,' as some say in response to the video. That's from those who can't get their minds around a woman standing on her record for women, despite their claims of supporting them. When the rubber hits the road, they can't bear it.

And no, she won't have 'Bill telling her what to do,' as some have proposed as well, nor is she 'only in this position because her husband got a blow job,' as some say.

It says a lot more about them that it does her and made me investigate her for myself instead of listening to those who are spewing RW points who claim to be leftist, liberal or progressive.

Bain's Bane said it well:



Dismissing the rights and concerns of people of color and women is reactionary. It is way more reactionary than Third Way. There is nothing progressive or liberal about it, and I don't consider people who do so to be leftists. Period.

Hillary has spoken for workers, women and minorities. Some are still trying to convince us that the ideals of Rand or Ron Paul are worthy to be listened to as Democrats. Ain't buying that. And Hillary was one of Rand's first targets. For what, one might ask?

Bill getting a blow job.

You post the best, smartest pieces, fresh.

Don't stop, cuz we are the better for it!!

to be hit by Hillary.

education.

care for all was important. I not a healthy mom-then likely not have healthy babe. We will see

We should follow their example on this.

great but with the current crop of baggers in Congress and the labels of socialism yelping from their mouths it will not happen.

Hilary, or Elizabeth (I know, she's not running. )

Pres Obama has been a strong ally.
Women need someone who will continue the fight.

Women had access to education and jobs. Like Libyans in general they had free health care and free education through and including college.

After Hillary: women in Libya have basically nothing, including no safety.

Tell us again how great you are on women's rights, Hill. I seem to have forgotten how you define that.

Creative use of the post hoc ergo prompter hoc fallacy.

about that not too long ago. It's funny to see an example of it outside of class.

Wage, marriage and legal. It's a good branding.

Does Sen. Clinton support any restrictions on abortion, or does she believe it should be entirely up to women?

Senator Clinton believes abortion should be safe, legal, and rare. She has worked throughout her career to accomplish that goal by working to reduce the teen pregnancy rate and providing greater access to family planning. She strongly opposed the so-called "partial birth abortion" bill when it was considered by the Senate. She supported an alternative bill that, consistent with Roe v. Wade, would have prohibited post-viability abortions except when, in the medical judgment of an attending physician, abortion is necessary to preserve the life or health of the woman.

Does Sen. Clinton support the Hyde amendment? Under what circumstances does she believe that Medicaid should cover abortions (all pregnancies, life- or health- threatening pregnancies, pregnancies that are a result of rape or incest, extreme fetal malformation)?

No. Senator Clinton does not support the Hyde amendment. She believes low-income women should have access to the full range of reproductive health care services.

Does Sen. Clinton believe adolescents should have the right to choose abortion, or should they be required to seek their parents' consent? Why or why not? Are there any circumstances that might make a compelling case for waiving the parental consent requirement?

Granted I only did a very brief search. But with a large fan club here, I was hoping one of them would know of something concrete.

Yes, yes, people will point to her act as a public defender, being compelled to take a case that she didn't want to, but after that case she opened up a child defense organization, etc.

There actually is a point to those 50+ repeal Obamacare votes that will never succeed in repealing the ACA.

It is like a miracle!

Because it takes a real hero!

No glass ceiling for our gal, Hillary.

She can do it all!

whose campaign was narrowly focused on women's issues--Mark Udall in purplish-blue Colorado was replaced by wingnut Cory Gardner. So no, it didn't work particularly well in the last election. Speaking for myself, I am sick to death of the demographic campaigning that the Democratic Party has been doing for decades, angling for the women's/minorities/gays' votes, and not addressing horrible economic policies, trade policy, foreign policy and environmental policies. Enough! If Hillary Clinton--or anyone--wants my enthusiastic support she needs widen her view and expand her "vision."

And the media failed to call him out on it.
