In shocking news today, Bernie Sanders is asked whether or not he his ready to kick a Republican woman's butt. He was also asked if he was willing to kick a Republican African Americans butt. Inquiring minds want to know
is he also willing to kick Cuban American butt?
Bernie Sanders. All around sexist and racist butt kicker.
You heard it here. He wants to kick a black man's butt, a woman's butt and a Hispanic man's butt.
Next up! Bernie kicked a Republican white man's butt.

How fortunate for Clintonistas, because now they can ride this hobby-horse until it drops dead,
instead of explaining to voters how she thought this hideous "worse than anyone imagined"
TPP was some kind of "Gold Standard" trade deal for American workers.

(18,402 posts)He said he had to deal with a butt. There's a difference there. The first, in context, wouldn't have been so bad. The second, which is how he put it, was gasp-worthy, whether said to a fellow Democrat male or female candidate.

(18,402 posts)Calling a woman "dear" (and I don't care if you're a woman or a man) is about the equivalent of calling a black man "boy."
This is why second wave feminism arose--straight out of the incredible sexism of the left in the 60s (in which some women even sadly were complicit, just to hang in with the dudes). No thanks, not living through that again.

(27,310 posts)And I call both men and women, "dear"
And I call women and men "gals". In fact, in every social situation that people ordinary say,"Hey guys", I say, "Hey gals". When I walk down the street and encounter two or more of my male friends, I say, "Hey gals!".
In eery single social encounter, I refer to my male friends as a gal.
Every one is a dear and everyone is a gal.

(27,247 posts)He said "some butt", and made no reference at all to Hillary.
If you kick "some butt", it means you put a lot of effort into defeating someone-- or something.
In Bernie's case, he is very much focused on defeating the TPP right now.
