WILL SOMEONE SHUT HER UP? – AT 12:40 P.M. ET: Hillary Clinton is out of control and a growing danger to the republic. Her comments are becoming downright embarrassing, and I get the feeling she spends much of her time throwing darts at pictures of her enemies. She has run out of darts. From the Daily Mail:
Hillary Clinton said former President Barack Obama was able to shatter the racial barrier due to his looks.
Speaking at Recode’s Code Conference on Wednesday, the former secretary of state said that misogyny played a part in her election loss to Donald Trump this past fall.
After the Democratic Party nominee implied that her being a woman cost her votes since she didn’t ‘look like and talk like and sound like everybody else who’s been president,’ she then mentioned Obama’s historic election in 2008.
‘And you know, President Obama broke that racial barrier, but you know, he’s a very attractive, good-looking man with lots of ...’ Clinton says before her interviewer, Kara Swisher, interjects.
Well, he’s likable enough,’ Swisher said – a reference to a line Obama uttered about Clinton during a debate in the middle of their 2008 primary battle.
‘He’s likable enough, absolutely,’ Clinton responded.
COMMENT: Can you just imagine the reaction if a Republican had spoken about Obama that way? CNN would devote a week to the comment. There'd be a documentary on stereotyping. Panelists would ask if we're entering a new period of oppression, based on looks.
Hillary must be presented with the joys of retirement.
