Anti-Hillary Protestors Who Inspired Chelsea’s Feminist Email Were Radio Pranksters

Since they were from Boston (pro-Hillary) maybe they were trying to stir up female wrath to help her win NH?
If she had lost NH, as she should have, we would be dealing with Obama vs. Edwards. And that would have been a good contest. Although Obama would have still beat Edwards for the same organizational reasons he beats Hillary.

Sorry, as a black man, I’m offended that you can question whether a biased stunt is just faux bias. If they had been at an Obama rally saying “shine our shoes,” this thread would not exist. Shame on you MEN speculating about the existence of sexism. You have at least been trying to give Obama some critique lately. Thanks for that. But please call sexism what it is and stop insulting those of us who suffer discrimination.

The guys who did the prank expected that exact reaction. Bringing up feminism from the Clinton side, which I think they must find amusing.
Taking things personally shows weakness.

um – the “protest” was directed towards clinton. why not take it peronsally? she didn’t even take it personally. she brushed it off.
also — obamaniacs were screaming about innocuous statements being racist. why not complain about that?

If those two persons, from a Boston radio show, had stood up and yelled, “Hey, Obama, why don’t you come and shine my shoes” .. all hell would have broken loose in the media and among Americans wanting to “bring the country together and get beyond the devisive past.” But, since it was a down-right nasty, ugly and deplorable sexist statement, no media attacked the “good-ole-boys.” Afterall, it was guys being guys.
And, within the black communities, urged on by the media and “black spokespersons,” rather than Obama getting 80-90 percent of the black vote, he would be getting 98-100 percent, if a similar remark had been made to him. The headlines would have been screaming: “Racism,” “Racism,” “Racism”..Obama would not have needed to offer any defense, the media would have done it for him and in a more determined fashion.

I want to hear more about the supposed Obama supporters who crash the Hillary rallies and create tension by being rude and disruptive, keeping the rally from proceeding with constant interruptions.

Henry Black is right.

Behavior like this will continue as long as their are no repercussions. (David Schuster ring a bell?) It looks like nothing happened to these guys for pulling this stunt. Yep, it’s just a “prank,” yah know? Boys will be boys and all of that rubbish. No wonder radio is struggling to survive. It shows.

Posted by: Percy,
Here is a fact: she was ahead of him – even with members of his own race. If you want someplace to place blame, blame the Clinton campaign. Their actions turned off many people and not just blacks. I’m not black and even I was offended by the tone and nature of the Clinton campaign. It certainly opened my eyes to the reality of the type of people we are dealing with. Oh and if you think he has 90% of the support of blacks, you’d better do some research…..Anyone with reasonable intelligence, knows the polls that is impossible and not to mention inaccurate.
In fact, I myself got a call the other day from a news organization wanting to do a poll of likely voters here in the DFW of Texas. I don’t mind telling you I flat out lied about everything. Why did I lie? Simple, I am sick of the press trying to make this an election about race and gender. The press should report the news, they shouldn’t be trying to create it. So, you keep depending on the polls instead of using some indep. judgment.
As far as the article, I think real feminist are as offended by Hillary as her and her supporters are about gender jokes.

I can’t see how their being radio show pranksters makes their action any less sexist. Actually, the question being asked (is it really serious?) shows that sexism permeates our culture (in that sexism is never taken seriously, much less recognized). Racial injustice permeates U.S. culture, but, in some ways, it’s more recognized than sexism. As others have pointed out, no one would have been amused if someone yelled a similar derogatory question to Obama.

Sexism goes both ways. Sexism happens when women perpetuate the myth that men are insensitive. Sexism happens when women rail against the “boys club of politics” but create women’s only groups that attack other women for supporting male political candidates. Sexism happens when Hillary Clinton runs for president and bases her claim to “experience” on her marriage to the president. Frankly, I’m a little bit ill regarding all of this gender baiting. It’s the Clinton campaign which initiated this and made it a news story. Make no mistake – Hillary Clinton is trying to divide America.

The pranksters were probably set up Hillary operatives to stir up sympathy women votes for her–and this trick worked very well. Look for more tricks, like fainting young women to stop Obama’s rallies mid-sentence, and for dirty accusations and more smears on Obama’s record. When will we voters say, Enough! Have you no shame?

Sexism abounds in this country, but Hillary Clinton is not a model for feminism because she lacks the integrity to lead in a moral way. Her campaign is an example that disgraces women. Obama has been strong on women’s rights legislation and Obama inspires people to unite for change, not from elegant words, but from his intelligence, organizational success, and integrity.

Also folks, we need to remember sexism goes both ways. We have seen that in this race. that said . . . the media should still back off at this point and it was not acceptable.

Gender bias is definately the highest wall ceiling that Hillary will need to overcome.
For anyone that says that their is NO gender bias in the media… I challenge you to open your mind and research all the stories that came out of the mainstream media in the last 4 months.
Perhaps a revelation to chew over?
