Hillary Weeps Her Way to Winning

Hillary Rodham Clinton won New Hampshire last night and she did it by crying — fake crying — in public. She tugged at female heartstrings and bullied men into voting for her by feeling sorry for her.  Hillary “found her voice” in a ridiculous, trembling, tremolo that will hurt her more in the future than it helped her last night.

We do not need fawning and admiration from those delivering the news to us.

We need objectivity that is only created with a critical eye and deep analysis of what is happening to us in the world.
