Libs continue to fail to comprehend that gender or race doesn't matter, it's the individual that matters. Maybe the Pakistani leader had good ideas and plans for the country. Maybe the Pakistani leader didn't call half of her country "a basket of deplorables". Maybe the Pakistani leader didn't tell some of the people that she was definitely going to make sure their jobs never came back (coal miners). Maybe the Pakistani leader didn't laugh hysterically about Ghaddaffi getting a knife shoved up his backside and killed. Maybe the Pakistani leader didn't work for Israel and want to overthrow several countries in the ME. Maybe the Pakistani leader didn't support rapists. Maybe the Pakistani leader didn't have a public policy and a private policy. Maybe the Pakistani leader didn't steal the election from her rival during the campaign. Etc.

Hillary and the Pakistan leader both being female doesn't mean a damn thing. It had nothing to do with misogyny, but go ahead left, keep pretending that was the reason. They can keep crying for an additional 4 years.

I doubt if she gained or lost many votes either way. Those who only vote for males are probably 90% Republican voters to start with and those who voted for her because she was a woman are probably 90% Democrat voters to start with.

Obviously Canada is full of racists because they have never had a black leader. (sarcasm if not noted)

Then first hispanic, first gay, first transgender, and so on and so forth. To democrats skin color and sex are the most important qualities.

The fact is Hillary was a highly flawed candidate but still got a majority of the votes, hardly a sexist nation.

I'd say it probably did. I certainly would never vote for a woman as President. Women are nuts.

He didn't used to be this ridiculous. This is something he would not have said on his old Politically Incorrect show when he was more libertarian/right. Maybe he is just yapping to appease his younger progressive viewers and keep up ratings.

Obviously he and other lefties would not be so excited if the female candidate was conservative.

Yeah, well, that Pakistani woman president got blown up, so I don't know if Maher really wants to hold that up as something to emulate.
