The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

Eh, we've passed the tipping point anyway. There are barely 75-100 years of oil reserves left on the planet ... and true energy independence from oil for most of the planet is at least that far away.

Hillary Clinton called sexist attacks on her campaign "deeply offensive" Tuesday, as female supporters sprang to her defense, saying she speaks for all women and should stay in the Democratic race to the bitter end.

What's "deeply offensive" is this pathetic, last-ditch attack.

Woman for whom Hillary does not speak

She certainly does not speak for me, either. I understand how black women could be so offended when CNN tried to make out that they were conflicted in their choices for candidates- I'm offended that anyone, including Clinton, thinks I would vote for someone based on their gender. I would like to think that the candidates have some respect for the voters and credit us with a wee bit of brainage. Clinton is not a positive female role model, unless you consider her cynical marriage/political arrangement a plus. Her desperation is truly sad.

Thank you. Yes!
