Kellyanne Conway

This afternoon on MSNBC, Republican strategist Kellyanne Conway and Democratic strategist Keith Boykin were discussing Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright, when Conway made a startling declaration, calling Hillary Clinton "the chief white woman in this country." Her full statement:


"The person who has criticized them is Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton has been criticizing Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright. and I think that's the real issue, I think that's why Barack Obama had to push back. She is the chief white woman in this country, calling into question Jeremiah Wright's bonafides and she has made that issue on the campaign trail. Republicans aren't saying much about it at all, including John McCain. He had one thing to say about it early on."

Boykin immediately objected and Conway attempted to explain her statement, but a very wise Tamron Hall interrupted them and cut to commercial as fast as she could.

DON'T GET MAD BECAUSE YOUR HILLARY HAS DONE AS MUCH DAMAGE TO THIS COUNTRY AS GEORGE BUSH. VOTE IN IRAQ, NAFTA, AND NOW GAS TAX THATS GOING TO DEPLEATE OUR INFRASTRUTURE FUND TO REBUILD OUR ROADS AND BRIDGES FOR JUST $ 25-30. WHAT ABOUT ALL THOSE CONSTRUCTION WORKERS WHO WILL LOOSE THEIR JOB BECAUSE THEIR WOULD NOT BE ANY MONEY IN THE FUND TO PAY THEM. SHE'S NO BETTER THAN MCCAIN, OH WASN'T THAT HIS IDEA?

African Americans have an expression "HNIC" (not by initials). Not sure what Chief White Woman means, but there may be an symmetry here. Maybe we should call in the political correctness squad to investigate.

To whom are you referring? Conway is not a supporter of Ms. Clinton and never has been.

Conway, Limbaugh, and Savage don't have a filter and it's nice to see her out herself again. The last time she wondered if Hillary would allow Obama "to sit on the back of the bus of the ticket" as Vice President.

Now you're making fun of native Americans. Where does this end, O Libs?

I thought he was making fun of the retarded portrayals of natives commonly seen in old movies and such, but I could be wrong.

Maybe Obama would be open to the idea of a Chief White Woman cabinet position for Hillary in his administration.

...Chief White Woman???..­..

...I'm not even sure what this means and/or what to make of it...

...I'm visualizing HRC in a Native American chief's head dress (feathers and all), then drawing a blank after that...

...Let me sleep on this one...

"Chief White Woman?"

Wow. The history books are filled with statements like "she was the first white woman to settle the west" "she was the first white woman to give birth to a child in the west".....­and yet, the thousands upon thousands of Native American women and children born don't count.

That is what this reminds me of. White people's history is somehow more important than everyone elses. I don't think all white people think like this. But in our politics and in our history books - its obvious who gets heard.

Do we go after Hagge for saying "GOD DAMNED AMERICA (insert New Orleans)"??? NOPE.
Do we go after McCains associations with White Surpemists? NOPE.
Have we scrutinized every last corner of Clinton's past associations to see what has been said by anyone she has known for the last 50 years has said? NOPE.

chief. white. woman. "chief white woman."
i am reeling. this is so offensive on so many levels.
as a "white woman" i do NOT endorse hillary. i endorse equitable justice + democracy. hope. solutions.

i am thoroughly, absolutely disgusted with this sort of discourse. still the media feeds into it. the masses think it means something and anything that's real - never gets tp mean a damn thing.
this is sickening. the stakes are just too high.
