Feminist Follies: Slapping Soldiers

Quote of the Day honors go to Michelle Malkin:

American women are the freest, wealthiest, most educated in the world. They are liberated enough to choose someone for president other than a female candidate out of uterus-based loyalty. This should be viewed as progress, not heresy. But the old-guard feminists — the “ruling people” — deeply resent this independence as they cling to what’s left of their power base and their shrinking absolute moral-authority card.

Actually, the line after that is even better. Read it here.

Clintons hands off or out for Saudis’ money?

This quote from Hillary Clinton, New York’s junior Senator, really hit me in the face:

“I want you to come to the White House and say, ‘I heard you in Akron; when are you going to produce those jobs?’ ” Mrs. Clinton said at the rally here. And, regarding the high price of oil, she has taken to saying as she did here, “I’m not interested in holding hands with the Saudis — I’m interested in holding them accountable.”

Really? Then how about you and your husband being accountable and disclosing the details of the tens of millions of dollars the House of Saud and other Gulf sultans are giving to Clinton projects like the presidential libary in Little Rock? The Clintons have steadfastly refused to disclose their donor list, as well as reams of records relating to the first lady’s “experience” during her husband’s two terms.

Voters in Ohio should ask Sentator Clinton how she will hold the Saudis accountable when she is in the White House if her husband is holding his hand out in Little Rock.
