Hillary's "Traveling Pantsuits" Makes Us Groan
 
 


Yeah, Hillary Clinton's speech was great and all, but who else gagged a little when the Senator, gracious as could be, delivered this eye-roll inducing comment?

I will always be grateful to everyone from all 50 states, Puerto Rico and the territories…
(APPLAUSE)
… who joined our campaign on behalf of all those people left out and left behind by the Bush administration. To my supporters, to my champions, to my sisterhood of the traveling pantsuits…
(APPLAUSE)
… from the bottom of my heart, thank you. Thank you, because you never gave in and you never gave up. And together we made history.

We can only imagine what kind of sly sartorial reference Bill could concoct.

Meh. It was cute in Hillary's dorky mom-humor kind of way.

Seriously, if you are eyeing her crotch, you need to get out more (or jack-off less).

Actually, I thought it was a shout out to America Ferrera and Amber Tamblyn. The two met on Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and did a lot of PR to support Hillary during her campaign (video linked). In that case, I thought it was sweet.

I thought the line was pretty damn funny, but the suit is terrible.

I thought the orange looked great against the blue background.

The orange looks just fine against the blue, but not against her skin. It's an atrocious choice. White people need to accept that citrus colors very rarely look good on their complexions.

An orange prison jump suit ? It`s just what the Clintons should be wearing after all the shady stuff they got away with. Also what was with that pea soup green on Machelle ?

It seems like you're happy to just use any excuse to bash Hillary. She lost. Get over it, and focus on the positives of the speech, rather than trying to dig that high heel in just a little bit further.

I remember one day in 1953 when my Mother came home in a pantsuit. My Father, a good man, was furious and my sisters and me we amazed.. We'd never seen a woman in pants before. Father said, "No wife of mine is going to wear paints!" My Mother said, "I am." Pantsuits represents, for women, a change in perceptions of themselves. It was women in pantsuits that supported Hillary and she and I applaud them.

After hearing Hillary speak I feel we picked the wrong candidate for president, and he picked the wrong running mate.

This democratic convention has sucked major donkey dick. Just a bunch of moaning and groaning bullshit.
Hillary was the highlight. She gave an amazing speech and yet, Queerty finds something to bitch about. Will this blog ever get off her ass? Or perhaps explain their hatred for this woman???
It is a clear case of this woman can not win for loosing.

Please explain to your readers why you have such venom for this woman. We are getting ready to loos an election that we should be winning.

I think we have bigger concerns than the color of her pant suit. I agree with Beo. Describe what your endgame is with the Clintons.

What fucking color of pant suit would make you happy and how fucking retarded to you have to be to worry about it?

Oh, JJ: How fucking retarded do you have to be to misspell "lose" twice in the same hideous way?

I'm a huge Clinton fan, but I'm with Q-ty…that line was a groaner. Does it really matter that they remark on it when they have already lauded her in other posts? And did you notice that Q-ty made no comment on her color choice? Other poster did…

And incidentally, I liked her in orange. So meh to the lot of ya.

Hmmmph, I thought it was alright, memorable even along with the No Way, No How, No McCain line. I guess I'm not drinking the Haterade since she gave a pretty good speech (even though she'll probably never satisfy everyone – but who can in politics?).

I have done nothing but rave about how brilliant her speech was to everyone I know. I also noted to a friend that she has to stop with the Talbot's Outlet. One has nothing to do with the other. If gay boys can't bitch about fashion, then what fun is life?

Hill didn’t look as frumpy as usual and thank God Michelle Obama didn’t wear a sleeveless dress or pumpkin orange or Barney purple very few people look good in those colors.

#11: Faghag: Get over yourself. This is an equal-opportunity hate fest. Don't you ever read the comments on the Morning Goods? We gays are much harder on the menfolk than the womenfolk. Of course, if you're reading this, it means your threat wasn't real in the first place.

What would ya'll say if she was in thigh high go-go boots and a minshirt.;One of those Madonna bra outfits. OUR PRESIDENT ! right!
With those pants on, Bill could hardly be expexted to restrain himself when a spare oraface passed his way in the White house.Hill could hardly stoop to serve with her lumbago; There ya go with the inside story of the Leuinsky capper.

She straddled more ground then men do. What if McCain wore the color range she does? Cute huh. Actually some oranges and pinks might add to his colorfulness.

My Mom refused to wear dresses after they invented pants suits except her blue jeans & cowboy boots.

Yeah, and come November when the Dems lose their ass to the Repubs, you'll all be blaming Hillary for that too. Sorry, there's no 30 day return policy here, you got what you bought. After that, all 18 million of us that voted for Hillary will be sticking the middle finger in your face and rubbing MSNBC in donkey doo. It's about time the far left wingnuts of our party realize they don't speak for the majority.

Trenton

to answer your question.

Far more retarded than I should be at my age. A lot of people grow through their retardation, but my lack of an education and extensive pot smoking has left me illiterarte. That said, I still believe this blog has done nothing but trash this lady from day one. The day they got a hard on for Obama was the day they throw her under the bus. And…they just couldn't throw her under the bus the backed up and ran over her time and time again. Even after loosing, the trashed her.

Now she makes the best speech at the convention. The one everyone wanted her to make and they just can't seem to even throw her a bone.

We, as Democrats have lost this election. You can mark my words on this. The convention is a snooze fest where it should be Bush/Cheney/McCain bashing, war bashing…but no….they are too big a wussies to stand up and speak out.

Your right Keith,

Because a Minority should never stand up to a white woman. HELL NO back down Obama she is entiitled to this "affirmative action" it does work both ways. I guess

Don't worry about the FAR LEFT WING. What about the pretentious ones (Dixiecrats) in full effect. If he loses he lost. EH Whatever.

Such as life. And the Democratic Party will be a new crew because many folks will just leave.
Because it won't matter once Supreme court justices are picked if there is a McCain administration.

Who cares about 2012 the damage will be done and there ain't shit Hillary can do!
