Cliff May on Sen. Clinton: "At least call her a Vaginal-American"

http://mediamatters.org/items/200710160010

On the October 15 edition of MSNBC's Tucker, discussing Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's (D-NY) presidential campaign with Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson and Cliff May, president of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, host Tucker Carlson said: "Gene, this is an amazing statistic: 94 percent of women say they'd be more likely to vote if a woman were on the ballot.

I think of all the times I voted for people just because they're male. You know? The ballot comes up, and I'm like, 'Wow. He's a dude. I think I'll vote for him. We've got similar genitalia. I'm -- he's getting my vote.' " After asserting that "the Clinton campaign says: 'Hillary isn't running as a woman,' "

Carlson stated: "Well, that's actually completely false, considering the Hillary campaign -- and I get their emails -- relentlessly pushes the glass ceiling argument. 'You should vote for her because she's a woman.' They say that all the time."

May responded: "At least call her a Vaginal-American."

Carlson replied: "Is that the new phrase? Boy, that's nasty. I don't think I can say that." Robinson interjected, "No, you don't say that," to which Carlson responded: "I shouldn't say that? I'm not going attempt it. No, no."

Carlson also asked: "Do you think that people who are voting on the basis of gender solidarity ought to be allowed to vote in a perfect world? Of course they shouldn't be allowed to vote on those grounds. That's like -- that's moronic. I'm sorry. I know I'm going to get bounced off the air for saying it, but that's true."

From the October 15 edition of MSNBC's Tucker:

1. What a repulsive pack of dumb motherfuckers

(Can I say that?)

[MADem]

16. Yes you can, and you said it brilliantly--took the words right outta my mouth! nt

[aquart]

2. Oh, Tucker, if I could bounce your overprivileged white male ass for that...

I'd dribble you like a basketball. But you don't bounce.

[Breeze54]

3. "Boy, that's nasty." - Tucker Carlson

:silly:

They are deranged, disgusting and ignorant; that's for sure!

[RainDog]

4. well, boys...

I think it's time we had a little talk. when people are born, they usually have either a vagina or a penis. Yes, a penis, like the ones in your hands.

And yes, it then becomes important to realize that WOMEN HAVE VAGINAS. OHMYGOD. WOMEN HAVE VAGINAS. SOMEONE WITH A VAGINA. VAGINA. A FEMALE HAS A VAGINA.

I realize that can be very scary for little boys, but when you get older, you'll be able to appreciate that females also don't have cooties.

edited to note: VAGINA

8. LOL!

:rofl:

Send them that in an e-mail!! :)

11. Hee-Hee ROLF

[Bozita]

5. Soccer moms should be referred to as "Vaginal-Americans" from now on.

That oughtta bring out the married Repiglicon female vote.

[Breeze54]

7. That term is dead, I think and there are a lot of Dem Mom's

who's kids play soccer too! ;)

My kid did and last month, at my anti-war protest, a football Mom joined us!!

[Bozita]

9. If HRC gets the Dem nomination, she should incorporate that Cliff May quote in her TV ads.

I know very few women who'd like to be referred to as "Vaginal Americans."

[Breeze54]

13. I know I wouldn't like it!

These men are assholes but if you turned the tables on them and called
them "Penis-Americans" (see dickheads) they'd raise holy hell!

[Grey]

6. crude comedy

Silly man........

[Raejeanowl]

10. Do We Get To Call Them Empty Sacks?

I think it's moronic for Carlson to overlook just how limited his choices have always been if he's never needed to give the gender issue much thought.

In an ideal world, presidential candidates wouldn't be called Vaginal-Americans any more than they're called Penile-Americans, either, and pundits wouldn't suggest that female voters aren't capable of making a more intelligent choice that one of unthinking gender solidarity.

Shouldn't be allowed? Didn't women get past that legal hurdle a long time ago, Carlson?

[LibDemAlways]

12. That's repulsive, but it's what I expect from

a lowlife rightwinger. If Tucker had any class at all, he'd have insisted the idiot apologize for the sexist comment, and follow that up with a personal apology for allowing such a bottomfeeder onto the stage in the first place.

I expect nothing but more of the same - and worse - in the months to come.

[Breeze54]

14. Write Mays and tell him off!

[Rhythm and Blue]

15. Clifford May is a disgusting person.

He writes a weekly column that pretty much does nothing but:

1. Defend the Iraq war
2. Attack critics of the Iraq war
3. Propose more wars.

[Breeze54]

18. He sounds like a real oinker!

I haven't read anything he's written and now i'm glad I haven't!

17. Dicks.

[Oilwellian]

19. Poor Tucker...he thinks a vagina is nasty

Bad vagina, bad. Hey Tucker, some of them have teeth! Chomp! :rofl:

[RainDog]

22. I think Tucker was referring to the other guys' remark

as in... the remark is too low for anyone to go, you scumbag, and the media will not pick this up as a talking point. but of course, the talibornagain voters probably love to get that shivery feeling thinking of a scary vagina.

and, fwiw, I haven't been a hillary supporter and I'm female, but I guess I'm still a single issue voter... it's just that my issue is that the repukes are worse than the democrats.

[Lucinda]

27. Yup. Thats my take on Tuckers reaction. n/t

[Breeze54]

28. He's still an asshole and he still thinks girls have cooties!

screw him!

[Lucinda]

29. Well yeah. I can't argue that.

:rofl:

[Breeze54]

30. lmao!

:P

I forgot to add a goofy emote! lol

[All4Free]

20. No excuse for their vile comments...

especially the vagina being disgusting, but why would anyone want to be so unaware as to vote for a candidate solely based on sex? Maybe I'm expecting too much from the average voter, but 94% would vote single-issue, based on sex alone? Why?

[Breeze54]

21. That's what they say, but who cares what they say?

A-holes! I can't believe Tucker's reaction either. :crazy:

I do think Americans have a wide range of concerns and will
be voting for the best candidate to fix them!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[All4Free]

23. Thank you!

I should have thought of that on my own - not to listen to what they say, that is :D

[Breeze54]

24. I have mute button built into my ears~ naturally! - LOL!

That's why I need Media Matters! I don't watch any cable, so I avoid any of those RW talk shows, except
Chris Matthews is on here, once a week on Sundays. I'm usually making coffee or having breakfast at that time. ;)

[Whisp]

25. like wow, they've all been dudes.

""I think of all the times I voted for people just because they're male. You know? The ballot comes up, and I'm like, 'Wow. He's a dude."""

and white dudes with packages!
penis american, schlong american, johnson american, prick american, wang american, scrotum pole american, shaft americans.

[All4Free]

26. Oh I know,

it's not like they ever really HAD to think about it. At least not on the level of the presidential vote. (Ok VP once, but that was some time ago.)

[SoCalDem]

31. That would make the others Penis Pushers, wouldn't it?

:)

[applegrove]

32. Hope this sinks. Not worthy of any attention cause it is just ignorant as phrases

on candidates go. Please let it not have legs. If not I am going to have to call the whole Republican slate Penis Americans for the rest of the primaries and into the Presidential elections.

[angstlessk]

33. Of course the flip side of that is that WHITE MALES OVER?? 35 WILL NOT VOTE

FOR HILLARY...but that is not a problem...MEN THE THE RIGHT TO VOTE FOR DICKS!

[spanone]

34. cliff may is a cheap shill.....i turn my channel anytime he appears

[RainDog]

35. he sounded like a bike-seat sniffer to me

that old Jethro Tull thing... snot is running down his nose...

Samantha Bee had something to say about the fear of females on the Daily
Show.

I really hope this incident gets lots of coverage because it shows how totally fucked up the republicans are. Ms Bee surely needs to take it on. Hope she goes to red state land and asks a few of the moral majority women what they think of a republican talking head worrying about The Vagina Vote.

and it's not even halloween yet.
