Perhaps she should have a talk with Jill
I’ll be honest. I wasn’t sure what the term “beat it like a rented mule” meant at the time, but it was easy to figure out he meant to disrespect and degrade Senator Clinton. I am guilty myself of doing that among friends, don’t get me wrong, but for a U.S. Senator to say something like that about a colleague and a female to boot — no matter how private the meeting, even among strangers — was appalling.
I was thinking about the term “beat her like a rented mule” again today when I saw the Obama story. Urban Dictionary has three definitions for the term. Read them for yourself HERE, I’m too embarrassed to copy and paste them on Illinois Review.
You tell me which one YOU think the good Senator McCain meant when he answered my question “How do you intend to beat Hillary Clinton?”
It may be how the “big boys” talk behind closed panel doors, but McCain revealed that day how out of touch he is and how he has no chance of gaining the support of the conservative movement’s female half, and thus, the GOP nomination.
I disagree. I think his comment is perfectly fitting for conservatives. Women conservatives like authoritarian figures and subjugation, or they wouldn’t consistently vote against womens’ rights. Just look at the republican frontrunners and you’ll see that your/Dems values don’t jive with what republicans deem decent. McCain is simply imitating them.
