“Jimmy Kimmel Live” skewered the double standards applied to female politicians in a segment between Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and host Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday’s episode.
Kimmel brought out Clinton’s podium and asked her to start her stump speech.
After just a few seconds, Kimmel stopped Clinton for talking too loud. “It comes off as a little shrill,” he pointed out. “For men.”
It would also be good to smile, Kimmel said, but, you know, don’t force it.
“Ask yourself: Do you want to be president or do you want to be a Lakers Girl?” Kimmel said.
Watch the clip, via ABC:
Awesome! Nailed it exactly!
CLINTON AND MONEY FOR NOTHING?
Politicians who CASH IN demonstrate what their moral values and ethical priorities are. Not only are their actions mercenary and exploitative; they serve and validate a Quid pro quo system of legislative reciprocity, imbalance, unfairness and inequality.
We live in a time when legislators ignore the will of the people in order to serve the financial interests of amoral predatory capitalists. People who place personal gain ahead of social, ethical, moral and national integrity are literally competing against America.
Lobbyists make millions of dollars because their efforts DON’T pay off?
Corporations pay politicians exorbitant fees because their CEOs are ALTRUISTIC PHILANTHROPISTS?
There are only two reasons to accept MONEY/PAYOFFS from lobbyists and/or CEOs…the willingness to accommodate and/or personal greed. BOTH are HIGHLY UNDESIRABLE characteristics for a Democratic presidential aspirant!
Others have taken money before me? It’s what they offered me? Who cares what it looks like, if they’re going to offer me money for nothing, I’m taking it? Is that the reasoning of a conscientious Democrat or an elitist conservative/corporate Republican?
She was just on Kimmel … chill.
Was going to post the standard, “Countdown to someone bashing Clinton in 5…4…3…2…1…” but I wasn’t fast enough on the draw.
Maybe next time.
Sandernistas don’t have time to chill man! They got revolutions to plan! Don’t you know we’re thisclose to a 75 seat majority in the Senate? Once Sanders get his 500 electoral vote blowout we’ll all be living on easy street, with a chicken in every pot and a unicorn in every driveway!
