Mistress Hillary

God Maureen Dowd is an asshole sometimes. We get it: Sen. Clinton is one aggressive bitch. But do we have to go for the obvious Dominatrix joke? And are we seriously evaluating candidates on how well they’ll stand up to a “spank” from Clinton?

Is it me, or does MoDo have some serious issues going on here? I mean, this article is waaaay over the top on that, you know, “stuff”.

That joke is almost old enough to get a driver’s license. In 1993 at the LGBT MOW, I rode the Metro with a (hot) leatherwoman who had a pin on saying “Hillary is a stone top.”

It ain’t you, Scott. Dowd has had issues with Hillary Clinton for a long time. Sometimes I think the woman wants to reinforce sexist stereotypes of being catty, snarky and gossipy.

First, I think she writes like that because her editors have told her it will sell.

Second, in the face of some of the moaning she’s done on other issues (which I think is seriously antistrategic – you think men are scared of smart, opinionated women? Then SHUT UP ABOUT IT, don’t roar in their faces) — dare I say it?

I think she’s jealous.

Really. Think about it.

I’d be perfectly happy if Hillary was a dominatrix so long as she respected safewords.

Off course she would. Otherwise, she’d just be an asshole.

Perhaps Dowd should just face it: she is hot for Hillary!!

and humm, the Mistress imagery with the PoC candidate, that was swift too.

Only an asshole “sometimes?” Imho, that should read “always an asshole.” She’s one of the most destructive and vapid writers in the land.

… and look today (Nov. 21)… Dowd is back again attacking Hillary… I agree with Bolo… “always an asshole!”
