Hillary's "Women Hammer" Smashes Reason and Logic

Fresh off her victory in New Hampshire, ostensibly on a wave of women voters, Hillary is now wielding a giant "pander to women" hammer and she is going to smash every nail with it. Addressing the issue of immigration, HRC coughs up the dumbest, most offensive pandering pap I've heard in a long time..."No woman is illegal" HRC tells us.

Ah... yes... a woman can most certainly be illegal. Women are subject to the same citizenship requirements and/or immigration laws as men, deserving of the same privleges but also bound by the same obligations to obey laws. In other words, they are equal to men, being a woman is irrelevant to one's status as an individual who has conducted oneself within the boundaries of the law or outside those boundaries. What is Hillary saying, that women are deficient? Or maybe that they are extra special? Is no woman illegal because women shouldn't be bound by the law like men? Or is no woman illegal because women aren't capable of meeting these obligations of citizenship? Either way, this should be offensive to every self-respecting woman.

On the bright side, the fact that people eat up this feel good feminism may be a sign that serious, "moral force" feminism has done it's work so well we can now afford to have a feminist movement that is an empty shell.
