In the video to your right, another scantily clad beauty, Taryn Southern, sings a tribute to one of the 2008 presidential candidates. But instead of Barack Obama or John Edwards, this tribute song is directed at the former first lady and Senator from New York, Hillary Clinton. "H-I-L-L-A-R-Y, I know you're not gay but I'm hoping you're bi," Southern sings. I don't know if we're going to be seeing a lot more parody videos like these or if this is just a silly fad but it certainly is beyond the kind of safe, corny ads the campaigns put out on their own, which is, I guess, what makes them interesting.

Digg!

The most horrifying part of all is the credits. I can't believe how many women worked on that sexist piece of absolute--if I say SHIT will my comment be deleted? The note up here says inappropriate content will be deleted. What if SHIT is the *MOST* appropriate description of that wretched and frustrating clip??? Is that an excerpt from the Bill O'Reilly Show?

Jeez, gals, it's just a parody.

Answer: "That's... not... funny."

However -
Attention AlterNet: Is this a news site or what? I'm becoming increasinginly confused about your purpose, and increasingly annoyed that you're wasting my time. "Issues" like no lipstick in the military?
Maybe you need separate areas for fluff and hard news. Think about it.

Why a " commercial" like this one?

There have been rumors over the years that H. Clinton is gay, or at least bisexual. Leave it to the rethugs to try to gain political points from something like that. Never mind she's better than all the rethug hacks COMBINED; if she's not "straight", she's somehow less than qualified for office. This kind of small minded and mean spirited smearing is right up the rethugs' alley.

Catchy tune too. Hopefully Hilliary will select it for her campaign song.

How can you say "be thoughtful" and show that horrible, sexist mess on Hillary? Talk about "inappropriate content". I read your postings because I want to know what is going on. Looks like you have joined the "belly button" journalists--i.e. Paris Hilton, etc. I hate stupidity almost as much as I hate the Bush Administration. Shame on you.

Not a Hillary fan but, I have to say I feel sorry for her after watching that trash. Now, if Weird Al did it...
