{ townhall.com } ~ liar-Hillary Clinton's abhorrent remarks in Mumbai, India, last week warrant our attention because, like it or not, they represent the thinking of a large swath of the modern Democratic Party.
But my aim is not to highlight liar-Clinton's never-ending catalog of excuses for losing the presidential election, except to note that rather than blame everyone and everything but herself, she should apologize for stealing the nomination. If she hadn't done that, she wouldn't have to blame anyone.
She should also have to answer for FISA-gate, but I don't want to waste space demonstrating liar-Clinton's unfitness for office -- because I have little fear she'll run again, and Democrats surely aren't crazy enough to indulge her if she tries.
Instead, let's review her disgraceful tirade in Mumbai, in which she blamed Americans' racism and misogyny for her election loss.
"We do not do well with white men, and we don't do well with married white women," said liar-Clinton. "And part of that is an identification with the Republican Party and a sort of ongoing pressure to vote the way that your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should."
Hold the phone. Do you see the rich irony here? "Hear me roar" liar-Hillary is impugning the independence and courage of women -- the very people she is pretending to defend against our misogyny? Seeing as she is maligning men, wouldn't it be prudent not to insult the other half of the human race at the same time? I know few men who don't have a higher opinion of women than this female liberal icon is displaying here.
You know darn well that liar-Bill Clinton has a devil of a time persuading liar-Hillary to do what she doesn't want to do -- unless it will advance her interests. So why would she assume that other women would be any less independent?
Sure, you can say she isn't talking about all women -- just white wives of Republican men -- but what difference, at this point, does it make? There are way too many white GOP wives to pretend they are an exception to the norm. If GOP men are so evil, why did so many women marry them? Are they evil themselves, Mrs. liar-Clinton? Or are they just gullible, malleable, soulless or weak? Choosing any of those options would reveal egregious disrespect for millions upon millions of women, which shatters
The India Today interviewer asked liar-Clinton why 52 percent of white women voted for Trump despite the "Access Hollywood" tape showing him using vulgar language about women. I guess that even though the host is balding and graying, he is too young to realize how awkward this question was for the spouse of our former commander in heat, liar-Bill Clinton. Then again, liar-Hillary didn't flinch before launching into her next set of progressive talking points.
"I won the places that represent two-thirds of America's gross domestic product," she said. "So I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward. And his whole campaign, 'Make America Great Again,' was looking backwards."
Not only is liar-Clinton doubling down on her "deplorables" slander of Trump supporters. She is confirming the liar-nObama/ liar-Clinton progressive view of America: Its best days are in the past. Settle in for economic malaise, because that's the best you're going to get. For if you want a government that isn't hostile to business and entrepreneurship and that will reduce the tax and regulatory burden on America and unleash its engine of free market growth, you are "backwards."
But the real kicker was liar-Clinton's summary of Trump's supposed message to voters: "You know, you didn't like black people getting rights. You didn't like women, you know, getting jobs. You don't want to, you know, see that Indian-Americans are succeeding more than you are."
You know, you know, you know? No, we don't know. You ought to be ashamed, Mrs. liar-Clinton, especially for lying when you apologized for calling us deplorables and said we are driven by "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic" beliefs. You meant it then, and you mean it now.
But again, my beef isn't with liar-Clinton. It's with the Democratic Party proper, which has long been cynically peddling this very message in direct and subtle ways to alienate minority voters from the Republican Party, whose policies are manifestly more conducive to their economic well-being. For starters, go back and look at the racially charged statements liar-Obama sprinkled throughout his terms in office.
Sadly, this messaging works; I have seen too much evidence of it in my adult life to rationally deny it. The Democratic Party is running out of effective ideas, so it increasingly resorts to race baiting, gender shaming and other forms of intentionally divisive identity politics.
The racism smear is an evil cousin of racism itself because it falsely and negatively stereotypes groups of people and demeans their human decency and dignity. It does incalculable damage to the groups it vilifies and is corrosive to our society because it subverts racial harmony. And it certainly does minorities no favors to deceive them into suspecting that half the people in the country are somehow prejudiced against them.
But I have a feeling this shtick is losing its mojo. Under President Trump, the Republican Party is finally learning to fight back and defend itself against such slurs and showcase the superiority of its policies for all people, including minorities.
