Hildebeest's people are watching to make sure you avoid the secret €˜sexist code words'
[Kanuk Free Press] Hillary Clinton is, presumably, still going to run for President. No one's entirely sure why, but Democrats seem to think it's her turn to be President and they're doing their best to make it happen. Unfortunately, they've got their work cut out for them. Hillary's long political career is achievement-free, her agenda has been rejected at least once before, and she's proven herself to be a generally terrible candidate.

Democrats know this, but no one else has emerged as a genuine contender, so they're stuck.

Since they can't point out a single one of her past successes, the Hillary faithful are being forced to play the "sexism card" early and often. In the absence of any discernible positives, they're going negative - even before the race begins. ...And they're not afraid to make sure you know that's the plan.

According to New York Times political reporter Amy Chozick, Clinton's surrogates are putting us all on notice. Anyone who disagrees with Hillary is a sexist. They'll be watching you, and they're ready to pounce if you should use any of the secret "sexist code words."
No mention of 'worthless piece of kak.' If it's all the same to you, I'll just go with that.

#1  Any chance this story is something semi-onionish?
It's just too too somehow.
Posted by: Shipman || 03/29/2015 7:05 Comments || Top||

#2  Na ship, the list is going around quite openly. Sent by some of the HRC Super Volunteers:

“polarizing,” “calculating,” “disingenuous,” “insincere,” “ambitious,” “inevitable,” “entitled” and “overconfident.” Nearly doubling George Carlin’s list of “7 Dirty Words,” Clinton’s loyalists added “secretive” and “will do anything to win,” “represents the past,” “out of touch” and “tone deaf.”

#3  I don't see 'Dumb C***' on the list. Is that still OK, then?

#4  Of course, all of those terms describe Hilary to a T.

#5  Well, if nothing else, it'll make it easy for the other side to compose 'lists' when all this falls apart.

#6  Classless, broken-down, slimy, sleazy, thieving, political hack, engaging in criminal activity to undermine the country? Are these O.K. and suitable for family audiences?

#8  And yet they say nothing about the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, an apartheid state that denies women basic rights and legalises pedophilic rape of girls. Those who do are tarred as "anti-Muslim"

#11  I don't see "bitch" on the list so I guess that's still OK.

#13  Most of us are fed up with this power hungry Alinskyite. She must have mistaken us for someone who gives a rat's ass about whether or not we use these words to describe her and her activities. Call us sexist? FU very much.

#15  Oh, hilarious - I just did a post at Chicagoboyz about Ma and Pa Ferguson. Sequential governors of Texas in the teens and Twenties ... just noting some curious facts about them, plus some ... interesting parallels. I've already been accused by a CB commentator of rehabilitating the Man & Wife Governor concept, and picked up through my linking it on Facebook to my author page, by a guy who apparently is all Hillary.
Really, all I wanted to do was educate people about curious historical parallels...

#16  You know, Hillary has been around many years. I always felt she was insincere and out of touch.. Of course, being in politics, one realizes that being ambitious is part of politics. And, one realizes that anyone with a strong personality is going to be polarizing, and accused of being disingenuous. One wonders why Hillary doesn’t come out and say that being accused of being calculating and secretive can not be necessarily sexist. And, the people who formulated this list are trying to help her, they are doing her more harm than good because it adds to the belief that she is indeed, calculating, entitled, and, will do anything to win. She has to make clear that she believes that she is not over-confident or inevitable. She has to make clear that her actions regarding the Email server are not secretive and that it does not add to the argument that she represents the past, even though her past actions in Arkansas might indicate that.

Hooray! I used most all the forbidden words...

Does that include "Conniving As* B*tch" when referring to Her Majesty Hildebeast? If so, put me on the list.

US 'reactive and weaker' under Obama: Potential 2016 GOP presidential contender
[Iran Press TV] Republicans hoping to capture the White House in 2016 are intensifying their attack on the incumbent US president, with New Jersey Governor Chris Christie asserting the United States has become a "reactive and weaker country" under the B.O. regime.

Christie, a potential 2016 GOP presidential contender, made the remarks on Saturday during a speech before some 800 of Michigan Republicans gathered at a local Republican Party annual fundraising dinner in suburban bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit
... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang...
"America under Barack Obama
I bowled a 129. It’s like — it was like Special Olympics, or something...
has become a defensive, reactive and weaker country both at home and abroad," Christie said.

"When America doesn't lead, bad people with bad intentions do lead," he told the crowd in Shelby Township. "We need a leader in the White House once again who knows how to lead America and lead the world."

Christie also attacked Obama's economic policy at home, criticizing his assertion that the US must raise the minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to $10.10 an hour.

"We need to deal with the problem of income equality, not by raising the minimum wage," he said.

According to recent polls, Christie is trailing a handful of potential Republican presidential contenders.
So, what's to be done? Trade one skinny narcissistic, evil bastid for a another more plumpish narcissistic, evil bastid? No thank you. Next please, and don't send anyone in from further north than Richmond.

#2  Governor, tell us something we don't already know. As I remember, Obozo was your NBF when you were hustling money from the feds after Hurricane Sandy. Thought you two were going to have to find a motel room for awhile at that time.

#3  If only it was Reactive! supine is probably the most accurate term for US dealings with civilisation's enemies.

#4  Moribund would better describe our current policies. I don't think they can really be called policies--more like vomit, it just happens.
