Whenever someone at one of those townhalls asks “Can you give me details on [whatever]?” I feel like her eyes light up a little bit.

We don’t. It isn’t going to happen. We’re not going to get an article about how weird it is for a candidate to leave the country right before a primary he really needs to win in order to visit the head of an institution as regressive as the Catholic Church. We’re certainly not going to get one about how his campaign…
When she talks policy, I am a fangirl. I love smart people so much, it makes me woozy.
I think this speaks to one of the things people have said about her; that she’s absolutely fired up and a totally different person when she’s talking policy and substance, compared to campaigning. Politico had an interesting article on this from someone who’d reported on her both when she was Secretary of State and on…
Mocking her self martyrdom isn't the same as shutting her down. She doesn't get brownie points for pointing out the obvious.
Yeah. I guess I’m feeling very cynical these days about some types of protesting. This could be because I am getting old? Jaded? Those eight years of Bush really sucked.
We’re putting ourselves on the line for what a lot of people across America—and I think across the planet, really—want to be able to see happen in America
What? There were over 12,000 people arrested at the May Day protests in DC in 1971.
Delusions of grandeur? Romanticizing protest? Will they all go out for a latte after to discuss?
I protested like this a long time ago and I think I've become cynical since then. Nothing really changed. I voted for Ralph Nader which felt so rebellious. But then Gore lost and we had 8 years of Bush. 8 years. That's enough to whip any young over zealous hippie back into line.
Give me a fucking break. This ain’t a Freedom March. “putting ourselves on the line,” please.
Psht. Let me tell you what it looks like when you don’t facially sweat. Red. Bright red. I wish I did, just a little, so that people at the gym didn’t stare at me like I’m some kind of freak.
I gave up on Jezebel when they failed to report Hillary Clinton stating she would repeal the Hyde amendment. I mean that’s a HUGE Effin dea!!!!! Its a big story for any liberal leaning media site but especially for one with a focus on feminist issues. They eventually reported it weeks later when Bernie Sanders stated…
To wit:
Amen.
She’s talking about the fact that you’re downplaying the female presidential candidate being called a whore. And how that’s pretty awful. Worse, you’re actually trying to support the idea that people who don’t like this are “overreacting.” You know. Emotional women and their emotional overreacting.
Kudos to working at PP. Going to work there every day is a fucking act of protest in the current climate, so you’re awesome. And you remind me how I just dismissed a berniebot for snidely telling me Hillary is “conservative on every issue that matters!” as though reproductive rights don’t even exist in his fucking…
The point is that a lot of the stories out of Gawker have been incredibly biased towards Bernie. Which, I suppose, is fine. You folks have your own political opinions and you’re certainly entitled to promote your candidate. Just be upfront about it. I mean look at this article. You’re essentially telling us that the…
Come on. Someone, tell me again that “Bernie Bros” don’t exist and how he and his followers aren’t misogynistic ass bags.
This isn’t nothing and it’s frustrating to have such a dismissive response about it from a blog that’s ostensibly feminist.
