Hillary Clinton supporter, Lanny Davis, appeared on Tucker Tuesday and found himself faced with accusations that his candidate was trying to play the victim card and claimed she had been the victim of gender discrimination during last night’s debate in South Carolina.

Davis reminds Tucker that Senator Clinton attended Yale Law School, which is predominately male, but the formerly-bow-tie-clad putz wouldn’t hear it. He just can’t fathom the idea that any woman who is white and wealthy could ever be discriminated against in any situation. I think there would be more than a few women out there who would take exception to Mr. Carlson’s claim…

Tucker:”…It takes a lot of guts for a rich, privileged white lady that was one of the most powerful people in the world to claim that she is a victim of gender discrimination. Can you believe she said that?”

1. Of course, F*ker, rich white male enjoying discriminating against all would miss the point

The question is: why would any DU-er?
I remember the good old days when RW-ers were not praised and quoted here.

2. That's right Tucker -- sexism is pervasive - it knows no boundaries /nt

51% of the population would agree!

3. Who the hell PRAISED him?

The tone of the Crooks & Liars post wasn't one of praise.

[LiberalFighter]

4. Hillary has been rich all of her life? That's news to me.

Didn't know she was rich when she went to Yale.

5. A death match between t**ker and lanny davis

would be a no lose proposition for me.

Can you imagine 2 adult males named "lanny" and "tucker" fighting it out?

It's a real tossup as to which of these creeps I dislike most.

6. Tucker has vagina envy. nt.

7. He really doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.

9. When Hillary attended Yale Law,

she certainly wasn't rich. She was never invited to join Skull and Bones either.

As an aside, she wasn't a cheerleader at Yale like our Pretzeldent.

Have been on DU for 8 years. Have never seen so many sources quoted like those of Tucker, Huffington Post, Weakly Standard, Washington Times, and so on ad nauseum. Add to that Matthews and that toe-sucker guy.

Methinks we are infiltrated by those freepers smart enough to be able to type with both hands at the same time.

10. All that is true, and I add to it....

Gender discrimination crosses income gaps. Just because someone has money, doesn't mean they are immune to discrimination.

It is a ridiculous and stupid statement. It shows how little he truly understands.

8. Typical, and ignorant. Gender discrimination is about how you are treated relative

to the standard for the other gender. Not about whether you are rich or not.

Rich women are subject to gender discrimination, as are poor women. Poor women are also subject to discrimination based on other factors.

11. Did Tucker flunk the diversity training class at MSNBC?

[Beacool]

12. Oh please, who cares what comes out of Tucker's sexist pie hole????

This is the guy who says that he crosses his legs every time he sees Hillary on the TV because he's afraid for his puny balls. He should be afraid, I would love to have her kick him and Tweety right in their minuscule assets!!! Creeps.......

[RichGirl]

13. What an idiot!!

Every news program on CNN and MSNBC is hosted by a while male. The Sunday shows, all hosted by white men. If money made a difference, then wouldn't there be female hosts. How can he possibly claim there is no gender discrimnation. Rich, poor, black or white...gender discrimnation is across the board.
