It takes someone particularly disconnected from reality to suggest that Hillary Clinton is somehow being unfairly attacked by the media. Barbara Streisand — the woman who stores her clothes in a fake shopping mall in her basement — is apparently disconnected enough from the real world to do just that.
Why is it that today even a woman as impressive as Hillary Clinton is judged not by her merits and extensive resume alone, but held to a pernicious double standard?
Twenty-two years ago, I had the honor of introducing Hillary Clinton at a Humanitarian Award dinner, given by The Elie Wiesel Foundation. I said of her then and it holds true today, “There is no one in this country who would deny the competence, intellect, stamina, warmth and courage of Hillary Rodham Clinton… But the criticism of Hillary Clinton has again demonstrated that the strong, competent woman is still a threatening figure in our culture. …A man who graduated high in his class at Yale Law School and made partnership in a top law firm would be celebrated. But a woman who accomplishes this is treated with suspicion… Blanche Wiesen Cook, author of the acclaimed biography of Eleanor Roosevelt, said of Hillary Clinton, ‘I don’t think there is a First Lady who has been treated as rudely and meanly except for Eleanor Roosevelt.’” Both of these women boldly risked the scorn of “those threatened by the image of a woman carrying the fight for social justice into the public arena.”
It seems that nothing much has changed. It’s been 24 years since I said in aspeech for Women in Film, “Men and women are clearly measured by a different yardstick. And that makes me angry. Of course, I’m not supposed to be angry. A woman should be soft-spoken, agreeable, ladylike, understated. In other words, stifled. Language gives us an insight into the way women are viewed in a male-dominated society.
A man is commanding, a woman is demanding.
He’s assertive – she’s aggressive.
He strategizes – she manipulates.
A man is forceful – a woman is pushy.
He shows leadership – she’s controlling.
A man is a perfectionist – a woman’s a pain in the ass.”
It’s been decades since those speeches, but there is still outright sexism in much of the commentary on Secretary Clinton’s campaign. The Women’s Media Center andMedia Matters have done wonderful work documenting the explicit – and more importantly since it’s often unseen – implicit sexism of the political and media punditry. After Hillary Clinton won five primaries on March 15th, Fox News’ Brit Hume tweeted, she’s shouting angrily in her victory speech… “What’s she mad at?” When MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough tweeted she should, “Smile. You just had a big night,” should we have been surprised? Hillary Clinton has a great smile and smiles often. So does Barack Obama. So does Bill Clinton. But no one would tell those two men to smile.
Newsflash for Ms. Streisand. Hillary is an aggressive, pushy, controlling, manipulative pain in the ass, and calling her out as such isn’t sexism, it’s the truth.

Killary should be judged for what she is, a$#%&!@*
Just because this woman has a v****a I wouldn’t vote for her if she was the last woman on earth she is a murderer a fraud and a phony
Here is something to think about**, and why so many Americans support
Donald Trump !!*
(This information has all been checked, then double checked… it is 100%
Correct.)
That’s why there is such an alarm within US government, since Trump’s
statement about temporary suspension of migration of Muslims to US till US
authorities make sure there is a proper concept of safe penetration of US
territory.
People are stunned to learn that the head of the U.S. CIA is a Muslim!
Do hope this wakes up some!
You mean until it hits you like a ton of bricks read it again, until you
understand!
We now have a Muslim government.
John Brennan, current head of the CIA converted to Islam while stationed in
Saudi Arabia.
Obama’s top adviser, Valerie Jarrett, is a Muslim who was born in Iran
where her parents still live.
Hillary Clinton’s top adviser, Huma Abedin is a Muslim, whose mother and
brother are involved in the now outlawed Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.
Assistant Secretary for Policy Development for Homeland Security, Arif
Aikhan, is a Muslim.
Homeland Security Adviser, Mohammed Elibiary, is a Muslim.
Obama adviser and founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, Salam
al-Marayati, is a Muslim.
Obama’s Sharia Czar, Imam Mohamed Magid, of the Islamic Society of North
America is a Muslim..
Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships, Eboo Patel, is a
Muslim.
1/13/15:?? Nancy Pelosi announced she will appoint Rep Andre Carson, D-Ind,
as the first Muslim lawmaker on the House of Representatives Permanent
Select Committee on Intelligence. It would make Carson the first Muslim to
serve on the committee that receives intelligence on the threat of Islamic
militants in the Middle East! He has suggested
that U.S. schools should be modeled after Islamic madrassas, where
education is based on the Quran!!!
And last but not least, our closet Muslim himself, Barack Hussein Obama.
It’s questionable if Obama ever officially took the oath of office when he
was sworn in. He didn’t repeat the oath properly to defend ournation and
our Constitution. Later the Democrats claimed he was given the oath again
in private.
CIA director John Brennan took his oath on a copy of the Constitution, not
a Bible..??
Valarie Jarret wrote her college thesis on how she wanted to change America
into a Muslim friendly nation and she is a Obama top advisor.
Congressman, Keith Ellison took his oath on a copy of the Qur’an.
Congresswoman Michele Bachman was vilified and verbally tarred and
feathered by Democrats when she voiced her concern about Muslims taking
over our government.
Considering all these appointments, it would explain why Obama and his
minions are systematically destroying our nation, supporting radical Muslim
groups worldwide, opening our southern border, and turning a blind eye to
the genocide being perpetrated on Christians all over Africa and the Middle
East.
The more damage Obama does, the more arrogant he’s become!
Our nation and our government has been infiltrated by people who want to
destroy us. It can only get worse!
If you fail to pass this one on, there’s something wrong.. Somewhere!
In his book he said, “if it comes down to it, I would side with the
Muslims”. (And still, some insist he isn’t Muslim!) Pass this on.
Remember that the person in the White House supports terrorism with the funding of his State of Iran with all the shady cash he flew over to them.
I judge her by what she says, and she says some very dangerous things. As for what she has done, show me one bill as senator she wrote, and was passed by our president.
Why don’t you leave the country to.
Harley Glider que es eso
