Hillary Makes Me Proud To Be A Woman!

[Mags]

She is so tough, classy, intelligent,and she has moved many mountains to get where she is . Am hoping and praying that she will be Our Next President.

[WVRevy]

1. That's funny...

...she makes me disgusted to be a Democrat.

[Mags]

13. change parties!

[WVRevy]

34. Why? She's making Dems into Repuke clones...

...at least in terms of political tactics.

So...you're solution to the 45% of the country that have stated in polls that they would not vote for her should go elsewhere? We're not welcome in "your" party unless we're willing to endorse win at all costs bullshit?

If Dean and the party leadership "think" like that, you might as well start talking about President McCain.

[Mags]

64. read post #62

[roguevalley]

57. change parties just because you don't support her? Good grief.

[Mags]

62. not because she doesn't support her, but because Hillary makes her disgusted to be a Democrat.

[aquarius dawning]

27. Funnier yet, I feel the same way about Obama.

[emilyg]

69. Me, too.

[Skoods]

95. Me three!

I'm not really proud to be a woman...since i'm a man...but Go Hillary anyway!

[ClayZ]

39. Me, too!

[JoFerret]

72. I doubt you are a democrat

.

[xmas74]

73. Really?

Are you sure you're a Democrat? Just wondering.

16. I'm a 58 yr old woman in Tennessee and I'm in my dinning room

[BlueManDude]

19. what color is the wallpaper?? just kidding.

[Mags]

25. paint is beige with white molding.

[ClayZ]

42. You think like I do!

[melody]

3. I'm not proud to be female -- I had nothing to do with it

I'm proud of my accomplishments.

If you weren't proud of being female before, I think that's sad.

I'd love to see a female President, but I want a Democratic President more than I want a female one ...
Hillary has only made sure that is less likely to happen.

[Mags]

21. I've always been proud to be a woman, she just makes me more so.

[totodeinhere]

44. It's great that you are proud to be a woman.

You should be. But I hope it's OK for me to be proud that I'm a man.

[Mags]

66. of course

[Growler]

87. Agreed!

> Hillary has only made sure that is less likely to happen.

A Clinton nomination will set-back the goal of a female president by decades. It is impossible for Hillary to beat ANY Republican candidate, but after she loses, all people will remember is: "Well, she lost because she's a woman. It's too risky to try that again...."

It is political suicide to nominate Hillary.

Hillary < any Republican = stacked SCOTUS.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

4. Why?

"She is so tough, classy, intelligent,"

When did this happen?

[Vinca]

5. Tough, yes. Intelligent, yes. Classy, no. nt

[avaistheone1]

8. How is Hillary not classy?

Sounds like you are smearing her to me.

[stillrockin]

10. Latest non-classy act: endorsing McCain over Obama.

[dana_b]

31. also

being a corporatist, WalMart exec., accepting huge donations from drug companies, profits over people.

[Vinca]

54. Also playing the "I'm just a poor woman being victimized" role to the hilt,

all the while grinding the knife into Obama's back.

[rodeodance]

58. latest NON-classy meme from the Obamafolk--not to smart if you can not comprehend!

[mrreowwr_kittty]

103. Doesn't congratulate Obama whenever he wins a primary.

Tacky. Very tacky.

[Armstead]

6. Obama makes me proud to be a man

[Mags]

28. good for you

[Mags]

29. good for you

[MercutioATC]

7. Classy?

O.K., I'll give you tough. I'll even give you intelligent.

...but do you really feel that the way she has conducted herself in this race has been "classy"?

[samdogmom]

15. Thank you! No--She has not been "classy" in her conduct!

She's a bottom feeder! Get real. She learned at the knee of Karl Rove and Lee Atwater. Her successes are the Democratic Party failures! Enough said from me!

[ClayZ]

52. She has no "amazing grace"!

Why can't people see her as the shape shifter that I see.

Her "YES SHE CAN" vs his "YES WE CAN"... says it all!



She reminds me of "Gullum" in the Lord of the Rings!

[Mags]

17. of course.

[stillrockin]

9. Obama Makes Me Proud To Be A Human Being!

I'm a woman and I see Hillary as deceptive, narcissistic, tone deaf and manipulative. Am hoping and praying that she will NOT be Our Next President.

[ClayZ]

45. I want in on that prayer circle!

:grouphug:

[Catherine Vincent]

11. ...

[Lerkfish]

12. you should be proud to be a woman, regardless

[redqueen]

14. No shit...

:wtf:

[tyne]

24. There is nothing

"classy" about whining about being picked on by men....not in the 21st century. Yuck.

Young women of America! Cover your ears when Hillary speaks! It's simply not true!

"Classy"...pfft.

[Mags]

33. I am, she just makes me more proud

[Lerkfish]

53. you shouldn't pin your pride on someone else, you'll only be dissapointed

I'm not sure a longsuffering enabler of a philandering husband is all that empowering to women, in the long run.
I see it as either an acceptance of her "role" as submissive wife, or her political will to ignore it for her career goals.

either way, I don't see her as a reason to be proud of womanhood.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

18. How sad.

[Mags]

35. what makes it sad?

[galadrium]

20. Maybe you missed this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=St1vQtukvWQ

Yeah, thats class... low class.

[Thepricebreaker]

91. self delete

[CitizenRob]

22. Cheers! As an Obama supporter I can cheer on your pride in your candidate.

[Mags]

36. thank you!

[FrenchieCat]

23. Hillary makes me ashamed to be a Democrat.......

[AtomicKitten]

30. me too

:thumbsup:

[aquarius dawning]

32. Democrats like you make me ashamed to be a Democrat.

[FrenchieCat]

41. Well I'm not one of the Democrats who states that I won't vote for someone

because of their race. Are you?

The fact that she touts this as an "accomplishment" worth noting and with the same breath can discount Black votes as "not important" is the problem that I have with her, amongs others.


You can talk about me personally if that gives you your cheap thrills, but I'm not running for President, Hillary Clinton is.

I never understood why folks here aren't allowed to say anything about Hillary Clinton, a political figure, on a political board.....but Hillary supporters think that it is OK to assail other DUers simply for expressing their point of view.

[Mags]

48. I just posted the original post, nothing about your canidate, it was about Hillary

now look at the trash that has been written about me.

[FrenchieCat]

63. I don't control other folks....just myself.

So you need to address them, not me.

That's part of the problem, in my view.....how Obama supporters tend to be mushed together for the sake of expediency and name calling purposes. Although I did this in my post that you responded to, I normally try not to. So in this case, I apologize for saying "Hillary supporters"...as normally I would state "some" Hillary supporters, such as the one who I was responding to.

[AzDar]

26. I've always been proud to be a woman. A Democrat, not so much.

[PetraPooh]

37. If that's the sort of woman you want to emulate and makes you proud,

you're a disgrace to women everywhere.

[Mags]

43. I think not, my friend. I think she is a good example of a strong intelligent woman

[xmas74]

76. Pick me!

I want to be a disgrace too!

I support her and I want my child to be like her.

Is that disgraceful enough for ya?

[JKaiser]

38. me too

[DadOf2LittleAngels]

40. Its real classy to push a false story about

your opponent a few days before an election... yea Hillary reeks of class... well she reeks of something...

[seabeyond]

46. she may be all those things, but without integrity it really amounts to little

no.... dishonesty, corruption doesnt make me proud, be it woman, democrat or fellow human being.

[The Wielding Truth]

47. HIllary is okay,but Barack instills integrity to being an American!

[rodeodance]

71. as does Hillary

[tigervalentine]

49. Moved mountains to get where she is?

I thought she *married* her way to where she is.

[bling bling]

50. Whatever floats your boat.

I'm a woman too and neither she NOR her supporters pushing the woman angle make me proud to be a woman. Many of you are literally making a mockery out of gender issues. I've never seen so much baseless criticism in my life from people using gender to attack. I've seen "sexism" used as a *weapon* by Clinton supporters. It's inexcusable.

Ya'll go high five each other but there is nothing to be proud of. Hillary doesn't represent the best in women. Not by a long shot. In fact, I'd even go so far as to say she is a *bad* representative of the type of leader a woman could be. She's polarizing. She's out of touch with her true self and that's a damn shame because there is nothing as extraordinary as a woman who taps into the power of her soul. She's a ruthless business woman. She's a dime a dozen.

Her supporters frighten me in the same way Bush supporters frighten me. Open your eyes.

[Mags]

55. How is being proud of Hillary making a mockery of our gender issues?

I'm sorry you are so down on women. Sorry we frighten you, but my eyes are wide open.

[bling bling]

78. You're making a mockery out of *real* gender issues like sexism.

Let me try to find an example... oh, hey, here's one: the very first line of your retort!! "I'm sorry you are so down on women." Wouldn't expect anything more than that kind of bullshit gender bomb from someone who would post an OP like yours.

The word "sexism" is being thrown around here as a tool and a wedge issue. It's beeing *used* as a weapon to fight and attack Obama supporters. I've seen Obama and his supporters be accused of being sexist for using words like frustrated, unhinged, etc.

But you go ahead and be proud of Hillary. That's fine. I was just voicing my disagreement because you're the one who said "as a woman"....and I'm a woman too and she doesn't make me proud at all.

[Mags]

85. You just seem so full of anger. I've said nothing against your canidate,

I was only sharing the pride I have in Hillary. Why get that angry over it?

[bling bling]

89. I'm sorry you don't get it. n/t

[amborin]

51. Hillary is a shining star, she is brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!

[rodeodance]

56. Yes. she is grand---We need her strength to brake that 'glass-ceiling"

[nonconformist]

59. Me too! I will feel tremendous pride when I pull the lever to vote for the first woman president!

[angie_love]

60. Hillary makes me ashamed of my gender. Really she has proven herself repugnant.

In the last 3 days I've grown to absolutely hate her, everything she stands for, and shes shown that integrity means shit. Hillary doesn't speak for me as a woman.

[Beausoir]

61. Maybe some anger therapy for that hatred? It'll eat you up.

[dana_b]

67. don't be ashamed of your gender though...

just because you share some biological features with her does not mean that you share much else. I'm proud to be woman and that there are strong, resiliant women out there fighting for what is right. And no, I'm not talking about Hillary.

[not_too_L8]

65. Pull your head out of Hillary's butt ...I can't hear you!..n/t

[Mags]

70. who cares

[bleowheels]

68. So all of these years you were ashamed to be a woman?

Seriously, I am just joking. But that is how I read it.

[EFerrari]

74. I'm going to delete this. It's too mean.

[Beausoir]

75. Delete.

[EFerrari]

79. I'm trying to be fair and you're not helping. n/t

[Beausoir]

82. Sorry...I didn't see your delete. I do now.

[EFerrari]

86. Oh, it's all right. I should never have put it up. My fault.

:hi:

[Independent-Voter]

77. Vaginas for Veruca! Boners for Obama! Yeah for genitalia!

God damn this is some specious reasoning to be proud of yourself.

[Mags]

80. thank you

[SeaLyons]

81. I'm Very Proud of Hillary Too!!!

She will be the best President this country has ever had, and you can bet, we WILL have universal healthcare when it's all said and done. Her contribution to the needs of this country will be amazing!!

Hillary all the way to the White House

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

[Beausoir]

83. Class, grace, dignity and tenacity. I am proud to support her. In it to win!

[RiverStone]

84. Obama makes me proud to be a Democrat

period.

[anonymous171]

88. Obama makes me proud to be a man

He is so tough, classy, intelligent,and he has moved many mountains to get where he is.

[Mags]

90. good for you

[Thepricebreaker]

92. Class? Ok the wine just came out of my nose... must clean the keyboard n/t

[mmonk]

93. Classy? That's subject to opinion.

[Inuca]

94. Classy?

Not really, unless you refer to the quality and style of her clothes. Here is an example of her "class" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dk1k0nUWEQg I would characterize it as shameless and self-serving backstabbing, but to each his own....

[Mags]

96. yes, classy

[Inuca]

99. That's a very strong

and to the point argument. I am convinced now.

[I Vote In Pittsburgh]

97. She makes me proud to be a man!

[Mags]

98. well, that's nice too.

[eridani]

100. I'm not proud that she put an entire nation of women in Iraq under house arrest. n/t

[Turner Ashby]

101. As a female, I have achieved the same educational background

as Hillary. I have never sought public office, and neither do I care to. I have one child. I did have a philandering husband, and we parted ways. I did not feel the need to play victim to his Romeo ideas. And I lost all respect for Hillary for not leaving her husband after he left office. Especially after her boast of not being some little women standing by her man. That was her first major prime time effort at arrogance.

Neither do I feel any need to sacrifice my country on the altar of "womanhood" to somehow pay women back for any perceived or actual victimhood. I am quite sure that the blacks could make the same argument about Obama, and they should not make it. I would also feel that they were playing the victim card. Why be "proud" of being a victim?

No one should be proud of being considered a victim.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

104. I don't get that either.

I can't believe so many women honestly believe that they will experience vicarious equality and/or vengeance for wrongs they have suffered through the elevation of Hillary Clinton to the POTUS. They will be sadly disappointed when the world abruptly returns to the same state it was prior the great catalyst of feminism they think her election will be.

[eridani]

108. I'm indifferent to her marriage. It's her hawkish policy that bugs me. n/t

[mrreowwr_kittty]

102. I'm always proud to be a woman. But that's just me. nt

[Life Long Dem]

105. That's like saying Bush makes me proud to be a man!

ehhhh!! Even writing that sentence gave me a bad feeling. Okay, maybe not as bad as saying that, but Hillary is not the most honest person I'd want to represent me if I was a woman. She is not the first woman president I would want either.

[mculator]

106. Go for both. Give the repukes something to fear.

[Slagathor]

107. Being proud of being a certain gender is dumb

it's like being proud of being right handed, or proud of being 6 feet tall. People should be judged on their individual merit. That's what so great about Obama's candidacy, we're finally moving away from outdated notions of gender and race. Let's consign all of that divisive garbage to the broom closet of history. The past will officially end when Obama gets elected. Here's to that date. But until then, being proud of being female is about as stupid a thing to be as being proud to be white or being proud to have been born in Barstow.
