Hillary Runs - Rightwing Nuts Call Her Hitler

 photo Hillary-Ready.png

Hillary Clinton has finally tossed her hat into the ring for 2016. Some on the left wish there was more of a "field" to choose from, while other Dems heaved a sigh of relief. But the far-right is losing it, screaming BENGHAZI!!! again, and telling Hillary she is too old, plus a Feminist! And Hitler! And her Logo sucks!






She's just too old. And Female!













Hillary = Hitler













Her Logo is Evil = Conspiracy!










#WhyImNotVotingForHillary = #Benghazi

Talking to Neanderthals ~ Megyn Kelly VS. Erick Erickson and Lou Dobbs

 photo MegynKelly.jpg

Erick Erickson on Red State
Many feminist and emo lefties have their panties in a wad over my statements in the past 24 hours about families. I said, in a statement reflecting the view of three quarters of those surveyed in a Pew Research Center poll, that more women being the primary or sole breadwinners in families is harmful to raising children. This result came from a survey that found “nearly four in 10 families with children under the age of 18 are now headed by women who are the sole or primary breadwinners for their families.”
I also noted that the left, which tells us all the time we’re just another animal in the animal kingdom, is rather anti-science when it comes to this. In many, many animal species, the male and female of the species play complementary roles, with the male dominant in strength and protection and the female dominant in nurture. It’s the female who tames the male beast. One notable exception is the lion, where the male lion looks flashy but behaves mostly like a lazy beta-male MSNBC producer.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~







Have these men lost their minds? (and these are my colleagues??!! oh brother… maybe I need to have a little chat with them) (next thing they will have a segment to discuss eliminating women’s right to vote?)
~ Greta Van Susteren of Fox News on Gretawire

MEGYN KELLY: So I'll start with you, Erick. What makes you dominant and me submissive, and who died and made you scientist-in-chief?
ERICKSON: Oh, it doesn't have anything to do with submissiveness per se, and it was certainly poorly constructed how I said it. What I meant by that was, when you look throughout society, look at other animals, the male of the species tends to be the protector, the dominant one in that regard, and we've gotten to a point in this country where you have a lot of feminists who think that the male and female roles are completely interchangeable, that there is no need for a man to support his family. You've got men walking away, you've got women becoming single mothers not by their choice, you've got a lot of people thinking it's a lifestyle choice. This isn't healthy for society when we think that roles of gender are completely -- can be interchangeable. No one's saying women can't be or shouldn't be a breadwinner or even the primary breadwinner. It's just that when we forced ourselves to this point in society where they have to be, that's not a good, healthy thing for society.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DOBBS: . . . And for people and for anyone in any discussion, in any debate on what is happening with women in the workplace to ignore the fact that we have marriages breaking up, shattering in this society and we know that reduces by at least --

KELLY: Why are you attributing that to women in the workforce?

DOBBS: Excuse me. Let me just finish what I'm saying if I may, oh dominant one. The fact is --
KELLY: Excuse me?

KELLY: . . . In this country in the ’50s and ’60s there were huge numbers of people that believed that the children of interracial marriages were biologically inferior and that is why it was illegal for blacks and whites to marry in some states in the country up until 1967. And they said it was science and fact if you were the child of a black father and white mother or vice versa you were inferior and not set up for success. Tell that to Barack Obama.




When Lou Dobbs called her "oh dominant one" I wanted to toss my computer out the window and go on a misogyny ax murder spree.
She handled it better than I would have.
~ ValeriesDancingMuppets on Jezebel

Maybe we've finally found some aspect of modern conservatism that the Blond Brigade can't stomach. The utter dismissal bot Lou and Erick give her & her opinions is both infuriating and deeply satisfying. This is who these people are, Megyn - it's who they've always been and always will be. They don't respect you and they never, ever will. Kick them both in the nuts and walk away. You can still save yourself.
~ iamlegion on Crooks and Liars

So, 69 studies in 50+ years says it makes no difference who the bread winner is and Erick THINKS, it makes a difference. There's a scientific study, what Erick the racist/bigot/sexist thinks.
~ Gump on Crooks and Liars

You know that when the Fox News Spokesmodels are trashing you for your misogyny, you've gone just a few steps too far.
~ Dave K. on Crooks and Liars

Megan doesn't seem to get it. She works for a network that promotes the kind of social conservatism that holds women in low esteem.
~ Sugarfunk on Huffington Post

That's it Megyn, come to the light.
COME TO THE LIGHT.

Left Wing Poutrage as "Sexist" Obama Compliments a Woman

 photo tumblr_mkr3g0weCi1s2hn6eo1_500_zps21e2b661.jpg

President Barack Obama has apologised to the California attorney general for remarking on her appearance at a fundraising event on Thursday.
Mr Obama described Kamala Harris, a long-time friend, as "the best-looking attorney general in the country".
Ms Harris's spokesman said she strongly supported Mr Obama but would not say whether she had accepted his apology.
Critics have cited the remark as an example of the ongoing hurdles women face in the workplace.
~ BBC News

For those who don't see the problem here, the degree to which women are judged by their appearance remains an important hurdle to gender equality in the workforce. Women have a hard time being judged purely on their merits. Discussing their appearance in the context of evaluating their job performance makes it worse.
It's not a compliment.
~ Jonathan Chait on New York Mag

Usually, when Obama says a high-ranking government official is "good-looking," he's referring to a man.
Introducing HUD secretary Shaun Donovan last February, Obama declared, "There he is, the good-looking guy in the front here."
At a speech last March, Obama pointed out his secretary of the Interior, Ken Salazar, by calling him "a good-looking guy.”
A couple of months ago, Obama gave a shout-out to the "outstanding Secretary of the Navy," Ray Mabus. "There he is right there — the good-looking guy over at the end."

Anti-Feminist Wingnuts Mock Military Women in Combat

I want everyone to know that the Senate Armed Services Committee, of which I am the Ranking Member, will have a period to provide oversight and review. During that time, if necessary, we will be able to introduce legislation to stop any changes we believe to be detrimental to our fighting forces and their capabilities. I suspect there will be cases where legislation becomes necessary.
~ Senator Jim Inhofe, R-Oklahoma

What kind of a society puts its women on the front lines to risk what only men should be called on to risk? In countries ravaged by war, we consider it a tragedy when the battle comes to the backyards of women and children. Why would we thrust our own wives and daughters into that horror? My own instinct is to keep them as far from it as possible. Perhaps this move makes sense with an all volunteer force, but what if the draft is ever reinstituted? Are we really going to be the kind of people who press our wives and daughters to fight in combat?
~ Denny Burk, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky

This is not a quest for equal rights or opportunity, which is noble at its base; it is a campaign for sameness, an effort to craft a perverse worldview that manhood and womanhood are interchangeable-- in marriage, in parenthood, even in a foxhole.
God himself teaches otherwise.
. . . This does not require a Norman Rockwell portrait of the little ladies baking pies while the men-folk prop up their feet and watch sports (even though there is nothing wrong with that portrait).
~ Mark Davis on Townhall.com

The problem is to treat women equally, when they are not equipped the same as men to deal with what it means to be part of an infantry battalion -- to treat unequals equally -- is basically unfair.
It’s unfair to the women, it’s unfair to the men, it’s problematic for the readiness and efficiency and effectiveness of infantry battalions. It’s the policy makers who are to blame – not the women or the men. It’s the policy makers, people like Secretary Panetta. He makes a change like this and goes out to the West Coast. He doesn’t have to deal with the consequences.
~ Elaine Donnelly of the Center for Military Readiness

Once again, elections have consequences. Barack Obama has made it clear that part of his progressive agenda includes forcing gender radicalism down America’s throat, absent any input from Congress.
~ Arnold Ahlert on Front Page Mag

Feminist ideologues have pooh-poohed the notion that sexual attraction is a major problem when you put young men and women together in close quarters for long periods of time under the stress of combat situations. They act as if both males and females will resist temptation and if they don't that there will be no significant consequences anyway.
. . . But the consequences for love affairs gone wrong, rivalry among suitors or even the distraction that sex can provide from other duties are very different in a college setting than they are in the middle of battle.
Unit cohesion is a major factor in the success of any military objective. Inject sexual rivalry and tension into a small group of soldiers whose decisions mean life and death, and you are likely to get more of the latter.
~ Linda Chavez on Townhall.com

Women in Combat a Dangerous Experiment
This combat environment -- now containing males and females -- will place a tremendous burden on combat commanders. Not only will they have to maintain their focus on defeating the enemy in battle, they will have to do so in an environment that combines life-threatening danger with underlying sexual tensions. This is a lot to ask of the young leaders, both men and women, who will have to juggle the need to join and separate the sexes within the context of quickly developing and deadly situations.
Is the experiment worth placing this burden on small unit leaders? I think it is asking too much.
~ Lt. General (Retired) and Vice President of the Family Research Council Jerry Boykin on CNN

Conservative Women Rush to be Rush Babes


Photobucket


Rush Babes for America (a.k.a. The National Organization for Rush Babes) is a Facebook Page dedicated to the millions of conservative women who know what they believe in: family, American Values, and not being told by Faux Feminist Groups how to think.
If you want to be a Rush Babe, join us by pressing the "Like" button on the top right of this page!
~ From Rush Limbaugh's New Facebook Group Rush Babes for America
 

“I happen to know the women in this audience in total number dwarf the membership of the National Organization for Women, and yet there they are teaming up with Media Matters, a combined program designed to convince everybody I should be taken off the air. Well, what about the women who listen to this program? What about the women who like this program? What about the women who believe in this program? What about the women who agree with the political concepts, the values, the objectives as stated by your host on this program? What of them, what of all of you women who seemingly don’t exist to the media, to the National Organization for Women. There are many, many more of you than there are of them. And Rush Babes for America at Facebook is where you go to be officially counted and tabulated and to make a difference.” 
~ Rush Limbaugh quoted by Inquisitr.com

“I don’t think conservative women want to associate themselves with his hate. I don’t think they would want to associate themselves with his bullying. I don’t think conservative women would want to associate themselves with his vitriolic attacks.
~ NOW president Terry O’Neill quoted Here

Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh’s latest jab at the National Organization for Women has attracted more Facebook “likes” in 24 hours than NOW’s main page has collected in a little under four years.
~ The Daily Caller

Rush Babes for Rude Dudes! Come forward all you self-loathing women!
~ comment by JVG on Slate

"Unleash the Rush Babes"
~ Headline on ABC News

No doubt the group name he originally wanted to use was "Rush Babes Gone Wild" but the lawyers told him he'd have trademark problems.
~ comment by Take Cover on Slate

 Cripes. Talk about trying to put out a fire by pouring kerosene on it. 
~ comment by missroserose on Slate

 Limbaugh has labeled dozens of women "babe," ranging from Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan ("this babe is hot for socialism") to numerous female reporters and TV news anchors to the women who accused former GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain of sexual harassment ("sexual harassment babes"). His kneejerk use of the "babe" label led to Limbaugh making a fool of himself in 2010 when he called male Salon.com reporter Sasha Abramsky a "stupid babe."
~ Media Matters for America - link includes a list of 61 women labeled "babe" by Rush Limbaugh

That bumper sticker of his?  Reminds me of the mudflaps on 18-wheelers.

Monica Crowley Becomes a Bigoted Internet Meme (Now With Updates)

monicacrowley










~ Original remarks and apology from Fox News Anchor Monica Crowley on Twitter


“What really bothers me about is the blatant homophobia in the statement.”
~ Sandra Fluke on MSNBC's The Ed Show


Comedian Monica Crowley is almost as funny as Comedian Ted Nugent.
~ Secular Humanist on Twitter

What do you get when you cross Monica Crowley with anything? A homophobic bigot
~ Ziggy Daddy on Twitter #CrowleyJokes

What do you call a situation when a FoxNews anchor actually apologizes for being a homophobic hack? A Fluke. ~ John Saveland on Twitter #CrowleyJokes

Knock, knock. Who's there? Interrupting hack pundit. Interrup- LESBIANS!!!!!!! hahhahahahaa
~ Sonja Blair on Twitter #CrowleyJokes

Monica Crowley heard the fish in the Ohio River are trying to spawn. She asked, "Why, are they gay?
~ Joel A. L. Thomas on Twitter #CrowleyJokes

All I gather from the original #crowleyjokes joke is that, like Rush, she has some fundamental confusion about how babies are made.
~ Greg J. Krieg, ABC News Reporter on Twitter #Crowley Jokes

I get it! Sandra Fluke has short hair and wore a suit in court — a pants suit, no less — and we all know what that means. It means Crowley watched an episode of Ellen once fifteen years ago and well, you know what they say about first impressions.
~ Stephanie Georgopulos on Thought Catalog: When Lesbian Jokes Go Wrong

Monica Crowley dusted off an antique third grade bully joke and Tweeted "To a man?" because get it? Since she doesn't have long blonde Fox News hair and blindingly white beauty queen teeth, Sandra Fluke must be a lesbian! After people began remarking that Crowley's shi++y joke was shi++y, she added fuel to the fire, tweeting, "I love to expose the Left's total lack of a sense of humor." And that's how today's justified internet pile-on was born.
~ Erin Gloria Ryan on Jezebel

UPDATES!

Why would Crowley make that comment? Because Beelzebub needs cheerleaders too.
~ comment by Smartpeople on MSN Now  

Regret my tweeted question caused a stir.” Translated: “Golly! What’s happening in ‘Merikkka? A hateful b*tch like me can’t be vicious to a lesbo any longer.”

Did You Hear the One About the Pundit Who Thought Lesbians Are Funny?

Reince Priebus: When Caterpillars Eat Your Brain


PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket


“If the Democrats said we had a war on caterpillars and every mainstream media outlet talked about the fact that Republicans have a war on caterpillars, then we’d have problems with caterpillars. It's a fiction."
~ Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus on Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital with Al Hunt” airing this weekend, via Daily Kos



Women + insects = adding 10 pts more to gender gap
~ Stephanie Cutter, Obama's Deputy Campaign Manager, on Twitter

 It has a classic, pat-on-the-head, "don't be hysterical nor worry your pretty little head about it" vibe, doesn't it?
~ 80sGirl on The Maddow Blog

 I'm sorry to report that Reince Priebus did not appear to be intoxicated at the time of the making of this analogy, as it sort of sounds like something a drunken asshole of a boyfriend would say in the middle of a 2 am argument outside of a bar.
~ Erin Gloria Ryan on Jezebel

 If you remove the vowels from Reince Priebus, which is Latin for 'rectal probe,' BTW, his name is actually RNC PR BS... ironic, huh?
~ Comment by prthatrocks on Huff Post

Considering Republican environmental policies, they're actually at war with caterpillars too.
~ Twitter from The Democrat Machine

Mitt Romney is trying to get female voters and Rick Santorum said, "What? Women can vote? Are you kidding me? ~
