Who played the first gender card? Not Senator Clinton. [View All]

President Bush in his fancy flight suit played a gender card.

Ghouli, the Testosterone mayor, constantly plays the gender card, as do Freddie and all the other macho males in the Rethug party.

Anyone who spouts off about HRC's shrill voice or her "cackle" is playing the gender card.

Anyone who says a politician needs to grow a set of balls is playing the gender card.

Anyone who says the country isn't ready for a woman President is playing the gender card.


So Hillary made a speech at her alma mater, Wellesley, about how grateful she was for her education at a woman's college. About how, as an eighth grader, she had written a letter to NASA asking how she could prepare for the astronaut program -- and had been informed that women weren't eligible. About how, after she was accepted at Harvard Law School, a prominent professor informed her that they didn't need any more women there. About how Wellesley had supported her in her dreams and helped to make them possible.

And people run around squealing that she's playing the gender card.

Good for her. It's about time.
