Do you think she will get an apology? (5.00 / 1) (#8)

From Obama or MSNBC for that matter?  Unfortunately, I don't.  I'm not even sure if these comments and the reaction to them as sexist (or at the very least condescending) will make the MSM.  

I feel like something crazy outrageous will have to happen until people see the Hillary-hate and misogyny.  Even the  Schuster story didn't change things.

Also, is anyone else curious why Media Matters hasn't picked up on this?  They're currently all over Ann Coulter being a guest on MSNBC (which I completely support, btw).

Why would they see a need to apologize when even here where the discussion is relatively civil many do not see his remarks as sexist.

Perhaps I would not either if it were not a cumulative effect. Tea remark + claws remark + down/periodically remark = misogynist remarks to me. One slip of the tongue from even so able a speaker as Senator Obama is acceptable and understandable. The cumulative effect, for me, is that while he may or may not be a misogynist, his remarks are and are meant to be.
