Fox News correspondent Jesse Watters said Wednesday during an appearance on “Outnumbered” that Hillary Clinton has been “hawkish” on foreign policy issues because she’s trying to “overcompensate” for being a woman.
Watters was the “one lucky guy” on the show’s panel, which turned its attention to the former secretary of state’s recent criticism of President Obama on foreign matters.
Watters said the reason Clinton was coming off as aggressive on the matter was simple.
“She’s a woman,” Watters said. “She’s trying to overcompensate. … I think Hillary has, you know, feels a little insecure because she’s a female running to be the commander-in-chief. I think she tries to come out and be very hawkish. I think she’s gonna get burned by this.”

Hawkish cause she’s a woman?
Holy shit, people say the same thing about Watters!
So when men are hawkish it’s because they want to seem tough, and when women are hawkish…it’s because…they…want to seem tough. Glittering insight there.
That’s pretty astonishingly observant for a Fox commentator to be able to recognize that HRC is a woman. When did they start requiring that level of factual accuracy? Did I miss a memo?
Fox News must select their employees based on poor IQ tests
Then how do we explain Dick Cheney? John McCain? Lindsey Graham? Rick Perry? (the list is long)
