Edit* She answers the question on specific examples of his sexism at the 4:10 mark.









GO AWAY CRAZY LADY

[Crazy Dave]

1. Don't forget "Sweetie" n/t

[GarbagemanLB]

2. She's an ignorant bigot.

[demokatgurrl]

3. I don't get it about Annie Oakley

I am old enough to have had an Annie Oakley board game when I was a little girl. Annie Oakley was COOL. She was tough. I admired her. How is that an insult?

[Kittycat]

8. Brandishing about like the cowboy, George Bush

He was essentially likening her behavior in that regard to * clearing his brush, but acting like a cowboy.

[TheWraith]

21. I also read it as meaning "fast to the trigger."

Which is good if you're an exhibition shooter. President? Not so much.

[datopbanana]

12. They're both ridiculous. The "shoulder brush" one is just laughable though.

[Mme. Defarge]

15. I LOVED

the shoulder brush.

[olkaz]

4. Geraldine Ferraro would **hate** Jay-Z

If you grew up with holes in your zapatos
You'd celebrate the minute you was havin' dough

[ClassWarrior]

6. I guess John McBush isn't the only one who's out of touch.

NGU.

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

5. Gerraldine is an employee of Fox Noise

she's paid to make stuff up.

[Frustratedlady]

7. The Geraldine F. types are what slowed down progress on feminine issues.

She has a problem with opening mouth before engaging brain. <sigh>

Isn't she old enough to fade into the sunset?

[Justitia]

9. Yeah, well, she's probably pickled.

[Doityourself]

10. She's drinking and doing it heavily! Delusional, bitter, spiteful..pick one

[RoadRage]

11. Ohh.. another example:

He pulled Hill's chair out for her before the beginning of one of their debates (I don't remember which one). What was he thinking.. like she couldn't pull out her own chair??? :eyes:

;)

[Peace Patriot]

13. I only remember one thing from Geraldine Ferraro's debate with Daddy Bush

when they were VP candidates--her joking with this Bush Cartel scion about their "accountants." She was a millionaire. He was a billionaire. She wanted to join the B Club (boys' club, billionaires' club, take your pick). What was clear is that she didn't represent ME.

Money has no sex. It can corrupt one and all.

God, that was so-o-o-o disappointing! First women VP candidate with a chance of winning--and she sucks up to the Bush Cartel!

That was one my earliest eery feelings about something having gone very wrong inside our own Democratic party. (The Iran-Contra hearings also gave me the early willies about this--their letting Reagan off the hook.)

[Mooney]

14. She's out of her fucking mind.

I believe the correct term is "batty."

[GoesTo11]

16. She seems very unstable

She reminds me of Dirty Harry, where Clint Eastwood's eye had a little twitch that let you know at any time he could go way off the deep end.

[butterfly77]

17. Another nut on the Hillary train..

these are my favorite videos on youtube..Vote for Hillary! she is a woman!

[CakeGrrl]

18. Proof that they're scraping the barrel to make the claims, but sadder still

that they actually have people buying it.

This is the type of non-issue bullshit, like Wright and like the disenfranchisement wedge, that distracts voters into making really stupid choices. The Bush team relied on dangling the bouncy ball of distraction to get the 2000 election close enough to steal and then waved gays, God and guns in front of the 'hardworking blue collar voters' to nab it in 2004.

[grantcart]

19. funny they are exactly the same examples that will be used at Ferraro's competency hearing

[BlooInBloo]

20. Half Gloria Steinem, half Archie Bunker is the best way I've seen it described....

[knixphan]

22. Perfect.

[DemGa]

23. Well now, perhaps the little lady was "feeling down"

"I understand that Senator Clinton, periodically when she's feeling down, launches attacks as a way of trying to boost her appeal" Barack Obama.

Or maybe it was just past her tea time...

"It's that experience, that understanding, not just of what world leaders I went and talked to in the ambassadors house I had tea with, but understanding the lives of the people like my grandmother who lives in a tiny hut in Africa," Obama, D-Ill., told a crowd of would-be voters in Coralville, Iowa, on Friday.

But really sometimes they can get a bit "catty"; can't they?

"You challenge the status quo and suddenly the claws come out," Obama said.

[npincus]

24. remember when HRC mocked BO with "the sky will open up..."

you didn't hear Obama's people CRYING about that! It's called POLITICS, Gerry. If Obama were saying the same thing about a male, then "Annie Oakly" would have been interchangeable with "Rambo", etc. Big f*cking deal!
