The Obama campaign has put forth a gruesome proposal to force the seating of the Florida and Michigan plegded delegates (presumably by tying them down on some sort of guillotine) and then cutting them in half - right down the middle. Donna Brazille would do the cutting.
Some people think of pledged delegates as numbers in a tabulation, but it's a little known fact that they are REAL PEOPLE with families and pets and other crap like that.
As curious as I am to see what a crosssection of a human being looks like, I think it is outrageous that Barack Obama would advocate for cutting human beings in half.
Hillary Clinton's supporters need to know something about this whole FL/MI debate. They need to know why Obama supporters view it the way we do.
Almost all of the Obama supporters are under the impression that every statement uttered by Hillary Clinton regarding the seating of Florida and Michigan's delegates is completely contrived and disingenuous. She could care less about these states. She demonstrated that when she called the primaries meaningless last fall.
Let's play a little game! Yay!
The game is called: What is sexism? Who is sexist?
Let's start:
Situation one: Howard Dean/Donna Brazille/the DNC (temporarily) refuses to seat the delegations of primary states that broke the rules and were warned repeatedly by both major campaigns.
Is this sexism?
No.
Is the DNC sexist because of this?
No.
Does this have ANYTHING to do with gender relations???
No.
Agree or disagree with the DNC, isn't this just a dry procedural issue?
Yes.
