In reply to the discussion: hey, guess what! turns out, michelle wolf is a woman! [View all]ehrnst
(32,640 posts)22. What part of "She burns facts, then uses the ashes to make a smokey eye"
is unclear? She didn't make a cheap shot at the makeup.
It's like you didn't even watch it.....
Because it's like you think she stood on stage and said, "SARAH HUCKABEE IS UGLY BECAUSE SHE WEARS EYELINER, ABORTION IS VERY FUNNY AND WOMEN SHOULD HAVE THEM A LOT!!!"
And you still feel entitled to lecture people that they should be OFFENDED by how 'LOW" she went, and by the way, if we don't agree with you, and you think that MLK is smart, then ergo, we don't think MLK is smart.
Waiting for you to bring that into this discussion...

It's easy to pretend Sanders' appearance was ridiculed, despite that pretense being inaccurate.
