I admire and respect Senator Clinton.....(Dowd)

...for how seamlessly and graciously she has assumed the role of healer after she ended her campaign, but a very small percentage of her supporters are just barking mad and fucking assholes:

‘It’s Over, Lady!’
By MAUREEN DOWD
UNITY, N.H.

Unity was spared the banality of unanimity.

Carmella Lewis, with her Hillary T-shirt and Hillary placard, came all the way from Denver to make sure there would be plenty of ambiguity, duality and ferocity in Unity.

Just as Hillary was testing out the unfamiliar familiarity “Barack and me” Friday and talking about “his grace and his grit,” Carmella began loudly booing and waving her sign.

“We want Hillary!” screamed the 57-year-old retired ad saleswoman and Clinton delegate.

“It’s over, lady!” yelled some Obama supporters a few yards away.

Standing between the Sharks and the Jets, David Axelrod took pity on an older friend of Carmella’s who was suffering from aridity in the Unity humidity. The chief Obama strategist fetched a glass of water and brought it to the woman, who was wearing five Hillary buttons.

This amenity did not stop the disunity. Carmella and her friends continued to cry, “Nobama!” “We love you, Hillary!” and “We need Hillary!” as Barack Obama sat onstage on a stool behind his former rival, his finger studiously at his lips.

2. Maureen Dowd - Media Matters - She's Extremely Sexist

Maureen Dowd since early this year has been criticized for using gender stereotypes such as calling John Edwards a "Breck Girl."

The irony of Marueen Dowd's column is that she tries to stir the pot under the banner of sexism while repeatedly relying on the same stereotypes to create controversy. For example, notice the description she uses. She finds one older woman in the crowd, and describes her acting like our friend Harriet at the Unity event to perpetuate another stereotype of Hillary followers that was frequently played on Fox News.

For example, to praise Hillary Clinton, she calls her a "Man" literraly: "She showed again with her squeaker win in Indiana that for many white working-class men, she is The Man -- more tenacious and less concerned with the judgments of the tony set, economists and editorial writers. Talking up guns, going to the Auto Racing Hall of Fame, speaking from the back of pickup trucks and doing shots of populism with a cynicism chaser, Hillary emerged from a lifetime of government limos to bask as queen of the blue-collar prom."

3. That's why I said "some" in the OP...

...I should have said a very small percentage. In fact I think I will.

5. The woman definitely has issues with gender

Democratic ones especially.

She tends to descibe men as effeminate and women as butches.

As she said of Gore, he's “so feminized that he’s practically lactating.”

And of course, we know that she saddled John Edwards with the monicker "The Breck Girl".

And now, this "Obambi" thing.

Hillary gets her own special treatment as "the feral Hillary" or "Godzilla" or mentions of HRC's "masculine side".

She desperately needs some sort of counseling.

4. Here's the really sad part about this....

"She told The Times that she and her friends were all voting for John McCain and that Hillary was just doing what she had to do."

This is a very angry woman, a woman scorned, a woman who would vote against her own self-interests because her candidate lost. Carmella, my suggestion is that you stay home, with your cats, on election day unless you can, in the depths of your rage, jealousy, hatefulness and overall studpidity, conjur up the single, clear thought that voting for Senator Angry Old Prick makes you a - what word am I looking for, John? - C-word.
