Hillary
Have you ever met Hillary? I have. I interviewed her. She was nice. She was businesslike, she was smart, she was focused. I have no idea if she is the most likable candidate, and I do not care. George Bush was deemed a likable fellow in the last two races, and how has that turned out?
I have heard it all and so has she. All the lesbian jokes, all the "they are a team, not a couple" remarks, and yet,it is more than likely that she will be the next POTUS, and the enmity is beyond reason. Let's examine it. I have one theory for the negativity towards her:
SHE IS A WOMAN
She is a really smart politician, and the dislike is based on what? That she'll lie to get us into a war based on greed and ego? That she'll bankrupt the treasury and make us a debtor nation to China and Saudi Arabia? That she will swell the rolls of the people not getting medical care? That children will be denied medical care?
Fox News,which privately prays Clinton wins,makes her such a center of attention,I head that O'Reilly is changing his first segment to "Why We Hate Her". There is no rational motive that can justify the treatment she receives from the media. Why is Chris Matthews allowed to say he hates Hillary and stay on the air as an observer who can grill both sides? Why is Michael Graham allowed to say he would bludgeon her, or Ted Nugent allowed to say he would like to stick a gun in her mouth?
From where do so many unmarried conservative women gain the experience to criticize her marriage? How do Limbaugh and Ginrich (with six marriages between them) earn the bucket of gall to criticize their thirty- some years of betrothal?
Why would John McCain not chastise the woman who characterized Hillary as a bitch? If fifty percent of marriages end in divorce, and sixty-five per-cent of the men cheat,how big is this base that resents Hillary for not dumping Bill?
They---and by 'they', I mean cable news and faux Republicans---are scared to death she wins. Why? Well,let's just say that if you've made a living off of dumping on Hillary on public airwaves, maybe you don't want her naming commissioners to the FCC.
It's because she is a woman, it is that and nothing else. There is not nearly a thimbleful of justification for the inane onslaught of witless scribes and so-called media pundits. I hope she wins and segregates the press by gender,record the reaction,upload it on "My space" and earn the fools the ring in the circus they deserve.
