Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says in a new interview that she can’t stand “whining” by women who are unhappy with the work and family choices they’ve made in life and complain that they have no options.
Clinton, in the interview with Marie Claire, was discussing Anne-Marie Slaughter, a former director of policy planning at the State Department who left in 2011. This summer, Slaughter wrote a much-discussed cover story in the Atlantic — “Why Women Still Can’t Have It all” — about leaving her job because of the difficulty of balancing her work at State with the needs of her two teenage boys.
“I can’t stand whining,” Clinton told Marie Claire. “I can’t stand the kind of paralysis that some people fall into because they’re not happy with the choices they’ve made. You live in a time when there are endless choices. … Money certainly helps, and having that kind of financial privilege goes a long way, but you don’t even have to have money for it. But you have to work on yourself. … Do something!”…

Really strange thing . . . when I rearrange the letters of her name, no matter how I put ‘em together, they always come out “Unindicted, sewer-mouthed, two-faced felon.”
Friend of mine has tried it also, and he keeps comin up with “Bad-tempered, unscrupulous, piano-legged frump.”
bocopro, “saa-LUTE!”. All I’ve ever been able to come up with is “America’s Tosspot Semi- Lesbian Mother-in-Law.” (Apologies to Semi-Lesbians out there.)
The second biggest lie the feminists ever put out (after “Men are your enemies”) was “You can have it all.”
Bullshit. Nobody, whether possessed of dangly bits or tucked in bits, can “have it all.” That’s something that nearly every man knows, and thus realizes when he makes choices for anything, he is necessarily choosing against something else. Probably most women realize it too, so long as they haven’t swallowed the progressive Koo-Aid. If they have bought into that, well, natural selection will eventually fix stupid.
You know, I really, really don’t like this woman, but as I interpret this part of what she said, it’s worth printing out in large letters and nailing it on the front of your desk.
* Again, I don’t like her, but I don’t interpret this as meaning “you can have it all” — more like what Steve S. said about choices necessarily precluding some things to get others.
That’s the most realistic thing I’ve heard the harridan say in a loooong time.
But…. Hillary hitched her wagon to a two timing BS artist who became president (and humped the staff.) SHE did’t work her way up but simply pushed Bill to higher levels (I don’t know if it was her nagging or fake fawning that made him do it but he did do it!)
Only reason Hillary became a Senator and Secretary of State is because of Bill (or maybe he nagged her!)
Slick and Thunder Thighs were the first evidence that The Stoopid Party had forgotten their Constitutional duties written and risked by the Founders of The United States of America.
Why is Ronald Reagan worshipped? Because the rest were flat-petered pre-metrosexuals; whose worst example was Fucking Navy Ace Randy Cunningham!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Balls and Audacity” did not re appear until Allen West!
The Fix? Is up to us!!!!
Who cares what this bitch has to say? She certainly rise to her position based on her merits! She’s simply an ugly and unhappy bitch. Period.
that should have read: She certainly did NOT rise to her position…
Does she really think she will be able to run for president 4 years down the road?
I don’t want to be overly critical, but that face ain’t getting any prettier. Four years from now?
Sounds to me like her first campaign speech for the 2016 cycle.
How many of y’all fell for it?
kinlaw (10)
Look at it this way.
In four years she’ll look presidential.
You know … like Geo Washington.
^ snerk!
Lets see when I look back into the future in my crystal ball—- I see thru the fog of the war in her bid to be the candidate for the presidency being questioned on how she “does it” . It’s a bit foggy in the back to the future crystal ball but wasn’t she shedding a few tears and looking soooo tired because she’s come a long way???? The poor woman has been thru so much it was now her turn???? sniff sniff—
I think she is gearing up to give it a try, kinlaw.
Probably hiring experts, as opposed to depending on her husband’s old machine.
It’s the hair. She’s growing it out, and it does indeed become her. I wish more older women would realize that long hair is not just for the younger crowd.
DC!!!!! I knew I could draw you out with a hot Hillary picture :))))))))
( seriously, I was so wondering about you the other day…nice to “see” you! )
Ach! I know I’m drinking martinis tonight, but really, ptui at the thought! Hot, and Hillary…**shudder**. Still I got what you were saying.
And how have you been, O Queen of my Heart?
well, the last 10 days have sucked but the last 10 months have been pretty swell!
Sorry for the last ten days. May things go back to swelling for you asap. ;)
Well, we’re hoping the vent on the weather side of my dream house will swell up a bit so it stops leaking :)
Desert Cat—- I like!!
