House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Friday condemned an online game posted by an anti-Hillary Clinton group this week that allows users to virtually slap the former secretary of state every time she speaks.
“‘Slap Hillary'” site isn’t a game, it isn’t funny,” Pelosi said in a statement to TPM. “Like all violence against women, it’s sick. GOP needs to grow up and take this site down.”
The game has been on the Internet since around 2000, but The Hillary Project–a group that plans to “wage war on Hillary Clinton’s image” ahead of a possible presidential run in 2016–reposted the animated game this week.
EMILY’s List, an organization that backs pro-choice female political candidates, has launched a petition demanding that every GOP 2016 candidate pledge to refuse money from The Hillary Project for advocating violence against women.
