Comments on "Protect Poor Chelsea Clinton!"

Protect Poor Chelsea Clinton!

Bill Clinton wasn't protected as a child -- so he didn't grow into a strong adult -- other than becoming president, withstanding impeachment, and so on. Wait a second -- Chelsea has been sheltered, and she's too fragile to talk to nine-year-olds. Read More

Great point. In Chelsea's case the media is even more complicit in this coddling than the average American, which was most ludicrously demonstrated when MSNBC anchor Dan Shuster was brought to his knees for stating, metaphorically, that Chelsea was being "pimped out" by Hillary's campaign. It's as if no one realizes 15 years have passed and she's far from the gawky college student she was in the Clinton White House, who arguably was deserving of protection.

correction

that would be gawky "high school" student. College students are adults!

Double Standard

The Clinton campaign has a total hands-off policy regarding Chelsea-- no interviews, no questions from the press.

You can't have your cake and eat it too. If she is out campaigning for her mother, she is subject to the same rules that apply to any surrogate of the candidate.

Still, it's nice to see the Clintons so protective of their 28 year old daughter.

If you can't ask Chelsea a question without the Clintons going ballistic, just think what they would have done if, when she was say a 22 year old intern, the 49 year old CEO of the company used her as a sexual toy?

Too bad they forgot that Monica was somebody else's 22 year old daughter when Bill took advantage and the whole Clinton team geared up to destroy her--until the blue dress evidence made that smear campaign pointless.

Chelsea Clinton

If Chelsea Clinton would not speak to the media, why is the media covering her?The Clintons know how to manipulate the bowing media!
