You don't know why New Hampshire voters chose Hillary Clinton.

You do not know that it had ANYTHING to do with the one, single, solitary time she approached tears.

You do not know that if it DID have anything to do with that moment, it was because of the emotion and not because of what she was actually saying at the time.

All you really know is that people voted in a way you didn't expect. Or, more precisely, women voters voted for a woman candidate in a way you didn't expect. And so you have to dismiss it as an act of irrational solidarity with Hillary Clinton's irrational moment. Because women are stupid! And emotionally overwrought! And probably shouldn't be allowed to vote at all!

And so, at the risk of sounding too emotional, I have to say: you pack of misogynist assholes**, could you stop parodying yourselves and do your fucking jobs for once? You know, pretend that the leadership of the free world is being decided and try to pay some attention to an issue or two?

** I'm including Judith Warner and Maureen Dowd in this. No links; you can dig up their cringe-inducing idiocy on your own if you hate your brain that much.

I had this whole thing I wanted to write relating my horror at this New York lottery commercial with a case we read in Con Law where the court was so offended at the mere notion of gambling and lotteries that it could not shut up. Instead, I will apply a principle from Torts: res ipsa loquitur. (The thing speaks for itself.)

New York Lottery's latest ad:

Now that it has spoken for itself, I would like to reply, "FUCK YOU VERY MUCH." I can't even decide to whom it is most offensive, but really, there are no winners here.
