She-masculation
April 23rd, 2008 — LiamShe beats Barry O. with the help of the bitter, gun-owning, deer-hunting, cheese-and-meat-scarfing unsophisticated country rubes that inhabit that little bit of old Bavaria that we call Pennsylvania. (Sue me, I grew up there, have no problem with guns, but don’t like meat and cheese).
She beats him by calling him a “Giant, effete liberal pussy who can’t close the deal.”
No, no. Yes. Well, almost:
- “I think the question maybe ought to be why can’t he close the deal,” Clinton told reporters outside of a polling place after greeting supporters. [Here]
Why, why, why!?!
Why, indeed. Maybe it’s that her party is collapsing in on itself, through the precipitation of the bitter and fundamental divisions that are the Democrats. Maybe it’s good taste finally manifesting itself after Gore, after Kerry, after Clinton, in the self-enacted self-destruction of the Democratic party (or the myth of) for the next 20 years.
Maybe it’s that Hillary likes to pretend that she’s Arnold Schwarzenegger (the movie version). That is, giving us an impression of Mr. Khrushchev, she lets the world know that the U.S. would obliterate Iran, should they attack Israel.
Touchy, touchy subject. At least it was, but now it’s solved - the Cheney way. And maybe that’s what people want and need to hear and know and believe.
“Obliterate Iran?” Yeah, I suppose we could. I doubt we would, even if she were in charge. We’d invade, try to take over, and drive ourselves into bankruptcy.
(Just like Reagan did to Gorbachev, while driving up our national debt past the future’s ability to drive it down. The national debt ceiling moved up past 9 trillion last Fall).
And so, I’m stuck on this point: Where do the traditional anti-war Dems go with the She-Rambo that Hilly has positioned herself as, as the inheritor of the “dreams and wishes for a better future” party?
And then, more questions:
- How butch do you have to be to get elected president, if you’re a woman?
- How un-political and non-threatening do you have to be to get elected president, if you’re sort of Black?
- How much easier has she made it for a moderate, (a truly moderate) Republican, like McCain, to be elected by a MAJORITY of Americans?
Much easier, Hillary.

I’m still trying to figure out who’s more revolting, Hillary or her brain-dead supporters.

So, what does it leave, or predict, but the end, dissolution, and death of the Democrat party?
What Hillbillary has done, in her id-driven, vengeful Viking drive toward one goal - her ego-satisfaction, the redemption of all the promises made to her (or that she made) as a Wellesley girl - what she has done, is to lay bare, and lay waste to her party…
So, what is her party?
The Dems - the Left and the Centrists in the party are, in deep essence, two separate groups, who hold little to nothing in common.
You’ve got the social justice, socialist-y, free the prisoners, end the war, feed the poor, liberate the sexuality (except in the case of ‘aids’), equalize pay, diminish Ceo pay, equalize everything, everywhere… live in peace, talk to your enemy, blah blah blah, etc.
And the centrist Dems, the ex-union steel workers, the out-of-work manual laborers, whose families have traditionally voted Dem, for the sake of local politics… these people are, in all practical ways, Republicans, and would be happier voting Republican. Except they don’t.
And it’s not because they’re pro-choice (they’re not). And it’s not because they’re anti-war, or pro-gun control or pro-affirmative action or reparations, or because they want a Black president (they’re not, they’re not, and they’re not). It’s just local politics, and a little history, irritating against the national trend and wider perception.
Mitt Romney, who was running for the Republican nomination for president, laid down his bid a couple of months ago, despite a lot of support from the ground, from many voters in some important states - but he cut out, because, I’ll assume, he values the unity of his party.
What Hillary has done, by not valuing her party, or her parties mutual ideologies, is to show its fractures, and then fracture it some more.
The Barack-o-maniacs will not, I predict, be able to get themselves to vote for Hillbilly, the pathologically opportunistic empty suit that she is in their eyes (and in mine),
and the Hillites will most certainly not be able to get themselves to vote for Obama, because he is a ‘radical friend of terrorists’, etc, in their eyes…
The end of the Dems, I think. With a real possibility of mass defection to either the Libertarian, or, more likely, the Green party, for the disaffected party inside the Democrat party.]]>

I am! I am!

Is it over yet?
Can we get past this charade and just start calling her president Clinton already?
Something interesting in the political winds the past couple of days. Some Republicans are getting quite comfortable with the idea of a Democrat in the White House for the next four years. I think grandpa McCain is going to get thrown under the bus. We’ll have four years of Clinton, after that we’ll have president Jeb.

How about: Never have more people voted AGAINST a candidate - that math at least should be undisputed!!
