Maybe Alcohol should be minimized at your back room editors parties.
It’s all funny until the hangover takes effect.
Any publication named “Vanity” should be held at arms length, and flushed.
Yes, of course. What we really need right now: as possible war looms and America is at risk of becoming an authoritarian state, is for a liberal magazine to mock Hillary Clinton.
Apparently, misogyny knows no political stripe.
In my work I sometimes have to remind people that teams of high-end professionals don’t always succeed at sketch humor. Amateurs are about guaranteed to fail. Also I fail to see why a bunch of magazine editors have any right to sneer at Hillary Clinton. I’m a former magazine editor myself and I happen to know there’s an unfortunate tendency in the culture to be know-it-all smartypantses. Say what you will but Hillz is vastly smarter, tougher, and more accomplished than than any of her sneering critics.
Vanity needs a new mirror.
The “Anything but running again” sentiment couldn’t have been a more perfect bullseye. The “take up knitting” bullshit is offensive.
Sec. Clinton should write books, give speeches, generally become an elder stateswoman of the Democratic party, and put her epic fundraising skills to work getting 25 year-old Democrats elected to state legislatures.
Grubby, cheap, petty and self-conscious–posing as though they have removed the 7th Veil. What’s not to like?
“Among the suggestions: that Clinton take up knitting…”
Become a tricoteuse?
I guess I could see that…
When I was younger and even stupider than I am now, I worked in the ER as a nurse and we used to do the most God awful things at 2 AM that we thought were absolutely hilarious.
I thank God all of the time that the internet was not around for me to post anything when I was younger.
Did Hillary Clinton become extremely accomplished by taking standard advice or a standard path?
Also, why do so many keep needing to “explain”, “suggest” or “advise” her anyway?
Heck, just a point of reference, as a male sometimes I am not exquisitely sensitive to prejudice against women since I do not suffer personally from such bias; but at this point it has become creepy when it comes to people’s reaction toward Hillary Clinton, what she does, may be do, may be not do, or just whatever.
Looks to me like they were trying to improve upon that old chestnut of Chris Cillizza and Dana Milbank sitting by the fireplace, calling Hillary Clinton a bitch…
Both were giant fails.
In a statement Wednesday, the magazine said the online video was an attempt at humor that regrettably “missed the mark.”
Which mark was this? The mark that implied that she’s too old to run for office again or that she’s a failure or that a women just isn’t right or what exactly?
Donald:" What is a tricoteuse ? … LOCK HER UP, LOCk HER UP"
EDIT: There is a pretty good Cartoon idea here, maybe the New Yorker … ?
Since she has already said she will not be a candidate again, you’ve just said what she has already planned to do.
Sec. Clinton should write books, give speeches, generally become an elder stateswoman of the Democratic party, and put her epic fundraising skills to work getting 25 year-old Democrats elected to state legislatures.
Why? Why exactly? I really want to get this out in the open. What the f*ck do a bunch of 25 year olds have in the way of experience that would make me want to vote for them?
“Among the suggestions: that Clinton take up knitting, volunteer work or any hobby that would keep her from running again for president.”
Yeah! She could help found a highly rated international charity organization or something!
No way that could be turned against her and used as proof of her supposed corruption and “need to disappear”
