View Full Version : Idiot male protesters shout at Clinton to iron their shirts

SCREAMING male protesters told US presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton to "iron my shirt" at a rally in the all-important primary state of Hampshire.

Senator Clinton, running to become the US's first female president, laughed off the protest suggesting a woman's place is doing laundry and not running the country.

"Ah, the remnants of sexism - alive and well," Senator Clinton said to applause, the Associated Press reported.

The two men were removed from the auditorium after raising a pair of signs that said, "Iron my shirt!" They also shouted the slogan.

"Can we turn the lights on? It's awfully dark," Senator Clinton said, signalling for police to come forward and take the men away.

The crowd burst into applause, and some began shouting, "Iron my shirt!" as the two were taken outside.

"As I think has been abundantly demonstrated, I am also running to break through the highest and hardest glass ceiling," she said.

Senator Clinton later joked about the incident during question time.

"If there's anyone left in the auditorium who wants to learn how to iron a shirt, I'll talk about that," she said.

Senator Clinton came second in Iowa's caucuses last week and faces a tough challenge for the Democratic primary vote in New Hampshire from Barack Obama, who leads her with just one day remaining.

Sheesh. Just because they don't like her doesn't mean they have to be serious assholes to her.

Sounds like she handled that pretty well.

I wonder if there would be more outrage if some racists taunted Obama with pick my cotton or some other derogatory remark.

I suppose it's more OK to be sexist in American than racist these days?

I've heard several people say America is more ready for a black man than a woman President. Someone told me it's probably because black men got the right to vote before women did, and that shows which order equal rights goes in.

Remember the equal rights for women bill has still never been passed in the USA.

Officially yes, but once you factor in the Jim Crow Laws women got there first. And no matter what black women got there last.

I won't vote for Hillary but I do support the idea of a woman for president, just not that woman. And I applaud her handling of the situation.

Should be no need for it. All we need to do, as seems to have mostly happened, is to recognize that people are people.

Where that doesn't exist, the conception needs to change. As the 14th amendment showed us, making a law doesn't acomplish what needs to happen.

I think these jokers were plants so Hillary could play the sexism victim card. It's only one of a couple cards left in her hand right now.

"Ah, the remnants of sexism, alive and well," Clinton said.
And low and behold, Malkin agrees with me!

Provide proof and I might entertain the idea. otherwise this is more RW bull intended to keep America divided. Divide and conquer...traitorous tactics if you ask me.
I said observational facts. It’s so “spontaneous” that Hillary orders her staff while on stage to turn the lights on because “it’s awfully dark in here”–and, you know, she wants to make sure all the photographers get good pictures of the unexpected, unpredicted hecklers rudely interrupting her and giving her a perfect YouTube-able moment to stand up to sexism! Darn those hecklers!

See also the New York Daily News, which reports that one of the hecklers had some interesting stickers–pro-Hillary and pro-health care. Surprise! The other dude says he’s a “Republican.” Hmmm:

We followed.to ask what the heck they were thinking.

Nick Gemelli, who is 21, and born at least a decade after “iron my shirts” was an anti-women’s rights slogan, didn’t have much of a rationale. “I just don’t think a woman should be President,” he said. He couldn’t really say why, but he agreed that he was a health care voter, as the sticker on his carrying case implied. The “Hillary for President” sticker was a bit more of a puzzle. He said he had just been given both and peeled them off. He said he had no connection to any campaign.

Hillary Clinton was at a Salem, NH rally earlier today where two male hecklers held up signs that read “Iron My Shirt.” They also yelled the odd slogan at delicate Hillary, who showed her jocular but steely side and batted down the sexist diatribe. Spontaneously, of course. Like those watery eyes. Several MSM outlets are reporting on the incident and MKH at Townhall blogged it from the scene.

Haven’t seen any video yet, but Anne Korblut notes that the hecklers were young students. Is your B.S. detector going off yet?


The two young men were quickly booed by the audience and escorted outside by the local police, and after repeatedly being asked, finally said they were protesting the notion of having a woman in the White House.

They declined to elaborate. One of the young men, who said he is a 21-year-old student, was told he looked too nice to have that sort of attitude toward women, and replied, “Looks can be deceiving.”
Yeah, I have a feeling there’s some deception going on. Question the timing? You bet.

In comments, Mookie notes that college goofballs have held up the sign–with profanity added–at feminist events. The question is whether someone in the campaign happened to encourage goofballs like these to show up today. There’s a history of that in the Hillary campaign, you know…

“Oh, the remnants of sexism are alive and well,” Mrs. Clinton said.

When everyone had settled down a bit, she said, “As I think has just been abundantly demonstrated, I am also running to break through the highest and hardest glass ceiling.”

Her words were drowned out by a cheering, now-standing crowd.

“That’s one of the things I love about it,” she said. “It’s never predictable.”
Oh, I beg to differ. She’s as predictable as rain in Seattle, fog in San Francisco, and wildfires in Malibu.



What I dread most in this political season is the “genuine” moment - and it is coming, soon, sometime between today and tomorrow, or tomorrow and New Hampshire - when Mrs. Clinton, in her ongoing effort to turn herself into whatever the polls says she must be, cries in public. It’s going to be genuinely ghastly.

Couple this with "pattern of behavior" on Hillary's part... Remember when Hillary launched her presidential campaign by touting her folksy bid to start a “conversation–with you, with America?” We knew it was phony baloney, but not this phony baloney:

The Iowa caucuses are known for their “living-room chats” where ordinary Iowans can meet candidates face-to-face and talk about what interests voters. When candidates have larger events or make major policy speeches, the crowds are bigger, but there is often still an opportunity for questions. But under the pressures of major media coverage, with polls narrowing in Iowa, campaigns can potentially control questions and coverage by planning questions ahead of time.

While no campaigns admit to this practice, at a recent Hillary Clinton campaign event in Newton, Iowa, some of the questions posed to the New York Senator were planned in advance, planting some audience members in the crowd.

On Tuesday Nov. 6, the Clinton campaign stopped at a biodiesel plant in Newton as part of a weeklong series of events to introduce her new energy plan. The event was clearly intended to be as much about the press as the Iowa voters in attendance, as a large press core helped fill the small venue. Reporters from many major national news outlets came to the small Iowa town, from such media giants as The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, the Associated Press, and CNN.

After her speech, Clinton accepted questions. But according to Grinnell College student Muriel Gallo-Chasanoff ’10, some of the questions from the audience were planned in advance. “They were canned,” she said. Before the event began, a Clinton staff member approached Gallo-Chasanoff to ask a specific question after Clinton’s speech. “One of the senior staffers told me what [to ask],” she said.

Major Garrett at FNC zeroes in on the scripted query:
The tape of the event shows that the question and answer went as follows:

Question: “As a young person, I’m worried about the long-term effects of global warming How does your plan combat climate change?

Clinton: “Well, you should be worried. You know, I find as I travel around Iowa that it’s usually young people that ask me about global warming.”

The campaign’s admission that it planted the question may be another blow to the New York senator’s image as a trustworthy politician.

Clinton’s critics have accused her of being a double-talker who refuses to answer tough questions specifically. Now her campaign has acknowledged planting at least one question.
The Democrat-on-Democrat pile-on continues. Grab your popcorn for a ringside seat:

“In light of a weak debate performance, not to mention a persistent inability to answer the tough questions, it appears the Clinton campaign has adopted a new strategy of planting questions,” John Edwards’ Communications Director Chris Kofinis said.
“It’s what the Clinton campaign calls the politics of planting.”

The practice of planting audience members to ask specific questions does not appear to be a common practice, or at least not a politically acceptable one. “Our campaign does not plant questions,” said Lauren Rose, Communications Director for Governor Bill Richardson’s campaign. When asked what she would think of other campaigns who did plant audience members, Rose said, “I think campaigns should give Iowa caucus-goers the chance to ask the questions they want.”

Sounds like she has the power to unleash the pitbulls with a "code phrase". Kind of like those "secret handshakes" that secret-squirrel societies use. What happened to freedom of speech, or does it depend on who's speaking?

Yes, it is true. It is also true that BOTH parties use tactics like the one described in order to further their cause. Both Dems and Reps aloke have planted people in the crowds to either ask questions or to chant slogans. It's politics, remember. There always have been "dirty liberals" and "dirty republicans", and there always will be. But that doesn't mean we have to follow suit.

Hi AD.
Are you just rising, or are you fully awake yet?

The thing is that Hillary has been caught at it most often, probably because she does it most often. Every time she is caught she denies it categorically...then blames it on the "vast RW conspiracy"...then blames it on her "nebulous staff" and says she was not aware of it...then apologises and says it "will never happen again.
On to the next one....

Her credibility is wearing thin, not only with me, but others...Look at the polls. Not a bad indication that this country views Hillary as unfavorable.

So if both parties are innocent until proven guilty, then both are off the hook for now. That leaves us with the FACT that she thwarted freedom of speech by signalling for police to take the men away. Sounds like she didn't like what they said (planted or not), had them carted away (for voicing their opinion), and then made a politically wonderful statement to all regarding the "iron" statement made(followed by mass cheers). Maybe a propaganda machine, maybe not. I wonder if every politician has the same power to silence american opinions.

Point well taken. I will research this further.

So, if having hecklers removed from an event for being, basically, morons, is abridging free speech, then anywhere that that has happened should come under fire. I mean, it seems as if what happened was there were the mysoginists heckling Hillary, and she was trying to give a speech. The heckling has interfering with her speech, and they were removed because they caused a scene. If we are to allow this then we would have to allow people to be loud and obnoxious during movies, plays, concerts, in restraunts, and so forth. Are the requests for quiet at theatres and concert halls abridging free speech too? If an usher removes me from a movie theater for making noise, is he violating my rights?

"Clinton Campaign Confirms Planting Town Hall Question, Says It Won't Happen Again"
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,310316,00.html

She has done it before, and would do it again. It's called a person's character, and she has shown hers.

There's your proof honest Hilary has been caught with her hand in the political cookie jar. Guilty as charged. Of course, ask if she has done it since and Hilary's people will deny it...wouldn't you?

So would you agree that removing the people from the "CODE PINK" organization when they start "heckling" at political events is fair?

Kind of off topic: Check out CODE PINK's "Join the Movement" page on their site.

Notice that there is not one man, except for the old gentleman with the blue shirt and camara, in on their sites main picture. Not even a PINK homosexual, nor a PINK communist, and not even the PINK panther:)
"Ah, the remnants of sexism, alive and well." Recognize the quote? I guess it goes both ways. So much for promoting equality.

You are right. No one should be held accountable for things they did as children. Childhood is the time that a person learns the golden rules of life. I agree with you.

On the other hand, Hilary is an adult and should be held to a higher standard than a child. That is more than a "little bit" of a difference. Hilary has political agenda for what she does, which crosses over into the realm of dishonesty. A child's agenda for stealing a cookie is because it tastes grrrrrreat...kind of like frosted flakes.

Planting questions misleads the very people that support her, and in this case, blindly.

Proven?
I don't know if they were held in front of a Magistrate, but admissions of Hillary staff members should suffice.
One day after Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign confirmed that a staffer planted a question for the presidential candidate at a recent campaign stop, another person has come forward with a similar story. http://www.abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=3848826&page=1

So when you get caught doing something, every single accusation made against you that is even remotely similar is instantly proven by bringing up that time you were caught doing something, somewhat similar?

And, again, I still say there's a difference between planting hecklers and planting actual questions. The question just provides a way to make a point you may have been wanting to make. I'm not overly concerned, and I didn't say much when Bush or FEMA or whatever group in the administration was caught doing it a while ago. As long as it is only a question or two, and not the entire Q&A session I'm not that concerned. It's not like they're fabricating their response.

Now planting someone to harass you just to generate sympathy is something that is significant, there's no reliable evidence of that here.

Clinton's campaign headquarters confirmed that they planted the question, and they work for Hilary. So now she doesn't support the decisions of her own staff?? That may explain it all.

Anything is possible. It's possible that Bill Clinton has had people murdered, as some claim. It's possible that Hillary is a lesbian, as some claim. A lot is possible. They all lack credible evidence though and really aren't even worthy of serious discussion at this point.

As far as Bill Clinton murdering people, that is a far stretch. But as you know, ALL presidents have made decisions causiong the death of innocent people. Shall I post that evidence also? With all due respect, maybe you should look it up instead so no one can claim that that my evidence is biased.

As far as Hilary being a lesbian, well...lucky Bill.

Local Radio Station Stunt Targets Clinton
SALEM, N.H. (WBZ) ― It was quite a final day of campaigning for Hillary Clinton on Monday.

First, her public display of emotion, and then she was subjected to what appears to be a sexist protest.

Two men, believed to be part of a WBCN radio station stunt, interrupted her speech at a campaign stop in Salem, New Hampshire and began screaming "iron my shirt."

Clinton laughed and then responded. "Can we turn the lights on? It's awfully dark in here for everybody."

Once the lights were raised, everyone in the auditorium was able to see the two hecklers who caused the commotion.

The men were removed from the hall after the interruption. Sen. Clinton told the crowd that the incident demonstrated that she's trying to break through the highest and hardest glass ceiling. So there is absolutely no indication that they were republicans or dems.
So you have to figure out why someone would do this or if it was in anyway abetted or encouraged....Hillary is spiraling down the drain in NH.

Why would the GOP send surrogates there to act stupid and pour sand on Hillary's brush fire, and giving her the sexism ticket which she can display like a pompom in the hands of an excited cheerleader?
Why would Obama do it?
For the same reason.

Is this a strategy from Clinton INC? Well... she is the Only One who would benefit.
...So there.

Saying that, I believe that it could have been that radio-station that banked on publicity, notoriety, listeners and subsequently ad revenue.

....Maybe a little manila envelope, from an "anonymous" address showed up on the desk of the radio show producer with some money and an invite in it,
My bet is, that this wouldn't come from anyone else other than from the source which had the most to gain.
You figure it out.

And low and behold, Malkin agrees with me!

Very interesting.


My thoughts exactly. I don't see how "iron my shirt" is a creative sexist remark. On one hand it's surely sexist but on the other it does a way too good of a job to place Hillary as a victim. Politicians are staging things. Giuliani has done it and I don't put it past Hillary either.

Who can imagine any sexist in their right mind would say to themselves "hey let's go to a hillary rally and disturb it with signs saying "iron my shirt"...it's a ludicrous concept.

I'd say you should probably stop spreading false stories about Hillary planting sexist assholes unless you have proof. The original quote said they were connected to a radio station. Now suddenly the extreme right nutjobs are saying Hillary planted them and you believe that? Egads as boogy says.

You can't imagine what an idiotic sexist asshole would do because you aren't one. I can't imagine how a racist can say 'those were the good old days" when talking about lynching black people, but our racist friend on this board said just that thing a little while ago.

This was meant as HUMOR, and you took it out of context, like you usually do. Besides that, it's the probability that it happened. If you read the brief post, you would understand that it was my math theory, which is not FACTUAL and kind of JOKING. More important, the husband (Bill) cheated on the wife (Hillary), and the wife (Hillary) fooled her followers (You) by having questions planted. THOSE ARE BOTH FACTS.

She has done it before, and would do it again. It's called a person's character, and she has shown hers.

There's your proof honest Hilary has been caught with her hand in the political cookie jar. Guilty as charged. Of course, ask if she has done it since and Hilary's people will deny it...wouldn't you?

You want others to buy into your spin?? Not gonna happen. I was referring to Hillary planting questions, and you TRY to make it seem like I said she was caught planting hecklers. WRONG. The link that I refer to (Post #21) deals with planted questions, nothing more.

Look at it again, FYI:

Planted questions, not planted hecklers.

You have proven that you do not debate honestly (at least with me). Or maybe it is an oversight on your part (I doubt it). I know that your agenda and your alliance to your cause is biased, even if it is proven that your SPIN ZONE is worst than Bill O'Reilly's. :shame: and :unreal:

I think I made my point. Will this warrant neg rep from you? Just curious?

Ok then AD, to clarify, you agree that you have absolutely no evidence that Hillary planted those hecklers? If you agree then I have nothing to say.

I have to agree with alonzo. You said she is guilty as charged and if she did it once she did it again.

You seem to think once someone does something, they are guilty forever of repeating that for the rest of their lives.

I don't agree with spin and diversion, and it doesn't seem like there is much you can say. That chip on your shoulder is getting bigger...

Can't fess up for your dishonesty...don't even want to debate it or bring it to the table."Birds of a feather flock together". Sad, but true.

Wonder if the other forums you feed on know your true colors. They'll eventually find out because the truth has a funny way of following people around.

The smart people here understand my point, and the followers refuse to open their eyes. Everyone else is busy doing what you are supposed to do here, which is to post fair and try to debate honestly.

Is this how it is in the other forums? Maybe I'll have to visit them to find out. :grrrr:

What are you going on and on about in every thread you respond to me in? You're becoming a creepy stalker. Your vague accusations are lame and ridiculous.

So I'd like to hear your answer to Alonzo's question. Do you agree that you have absolutely no evidence that Hillary planted the hecklers?

The more I think about his the more I am convinced they were plants from the Hillary camp.
If they were not, we would have been treated to every aspect of their lives, who they were, what their political affiliation is, who they worked for, what magazines they read and the radio shows they listen to, as well as being charged with something. Instead they were whisked away and the cloak of unaminity closed over them. This Never happens with vocal Clinton detractors, normally they are raked over the coals and held up to national derision for all to see. This is not normal SOP for the Clinton Machine. That's for sure.

Furthermore...
"Iron my shirts"????
That is a reference to a feminist mantra from FORTY years ago. How old were these guys? Twenty?
This stinks like low tide on the Long Island Sound.

I am convinced they were plants.

If they were plants, you only need to ask, who did they benefit?

If it was Hillary's campaign that planted them, it was a brilliant move.
Its called playing the gender card without being accused of playing the gender card.

If it was any other that did, they should be fired.

If the idiots did it on their own..... well stupid is as stupid does.

To AC's point.
Can you give me any other political entity who would have derived advantage for such a stunt?

Hillary..."Turn up the lights...The remnants of sexism is alive and well in America!"
What a golden opportunity to play one of the few cards left in her desperate hand. SEX.
If she had played it eleven years earlier , Bill's legacy have might have been different[hr]BTW...One of the plants had a Hillary Clinton sticker on his car.

The event does dovetail very well with her new-found theme of victim...actually not new.
When will using the gratuitous accusation of sexism become Sexist in the eyes of America.
IMO, it is long overdue

Saigio

The sticker is what makes this stink to me. What kind of person would organize such a ruse so poorly that it would be an obvious plant?

As for who benefits, if Hilary is accused of planting protesters, what candidates don't gain from such an event?

And on top of all of that, these may have been people acting on their own either in an effort to hurt Hilary's reputation or to boost it.

but why don't we know?
Malkin did a good expose on them but it is hardly complete. http://michellemalkin.com/2008/01/07/bs-...-hecklers/
If Hillary Inc had been any way threatened by these cretins, their history would have been splashed all over the headlines...they weren't. What's up with that?

IMO it enabled her to play the sexism card...and that is exactly why they were planted.

Sounds like she handled that pretty well.

I wonder if there would be more outrage if some racists taunted Obama with pick my cotton or some other derogatory remark.

I suppose it's more OK to be sexist in American than racist these days?

I've heard several people say America is more ready for a black man than a woman President. Someone told me it's probably because black men got the right to vote before women did, and that shows which order equal rights goes in.

Remember the equal rights for women bill has still never been passed in the USA.


I think America is more ready for a female than a black, but the numbers seem to show we are ready for both (either)! :thumbsup:

I do think there would have been far more outrage over racist comments than sexist ones. But honestly, did it bother you or didn't you just think they were morons not even worth getting bothered over?

I thought it was funny, and she handled it great. Women all over the country are handling it great.

Blacks would be rioting in the streets had it been the other.

We don't need an equal rights amendment. We are covered under the 14th, and to make a separate one goes against the point that we are all equal - we don't need special protection, we get the same protection/rights as anyone.

This is exactly what concerns me about the left. They to seem to see equal rights on a graduating scale, instead of seeing that our rights apply to all Americans equally.
This statement about who deserves a right more is exactly what will happen if they get power and can implement this mind-set.
If one agrees with them, they dole the rights out of their Santa sack to all the good little boys and girls. If one is at odds with their nefarious aims...out comes the lump of coal. They will probably charge you with some sort of hate-crime, or fine you for hate speech and put the money in their pocket.

Really? What black or woman candidates have the Republicans put up for presidential election? Oh yeah, NONE. Republicans seem to be the party of equality as long as you are a white and male.

If you look at history among many cultures, men of all types almost always get rights before women of any type, and it is always a graduating scale. The US has been no different.

I'm still waiting to see your proof. You keep making that allegation without any proof. It's your own personal swift boat smear campaign huh P?

Women got the right to vote 50 years after the black man did, in the USA.

The right is blasting Hillary much harder than they are blasting Obama and Hillary is more moderate even! If it were issues only, the right would have their hard on for Obama instead of Hillary.

They are harder on her because she is the real contender, and they all know she is the one they will be up against and can't beat! It would help them a lot if a weaker democrat got the nomination.:nana:

The left are always the ones who grade the quality of individuals on the basis of race or sex. It's interesting to know that the Dems think that a black male is weaker than a white female or visa-versa.
Every time I log on I learn something new.

Not if you include Jim Crow laws. Wasn't until the 1960's that most blacks could freely vote.

It was the same deal here in Australia; aborigines were 'fauna' in the national census until 1967, when they became citizens and could vote.

I see your point, lily.

I think the left is trying to figure out who the Conservatives are less biased of...gender or race. Thus support Barrak or Hilary accordingly.
This miscalculation of the Conservative movement in America and ignorance of it's members might very well lose the Dems the election.

The GOP has it's problems too, so it might just boil down to who is less stupid. Hardly an encouraging situation for us, the American people.
