A Tale of Two Cities, Part 3: Two Women | The Heavy Laden Bookshelf

Here’s one knitter who wouldn’t have groveled–Madame DeFarge.

Remember this? All the poor women said was, she was excitedly looking forward to her trip to India… and doing some knitting–and the roof fell in on her. The Wokies clamored for her scalp.

Now You’ve Heard Everything

Yes–somehow knitting (!) got construed as “Racist” and all the trolls piled on. The beleaguered knitter was forced to grovel to “Persons Of Color.” ‘Cause you know POCs are absolutely right about everything  and must be deferred to at every opportunity.

Knitting!

Suggestion: Don’t grovel. Ever.

Vanity Fair Apologizes to Hillary

She’s still the Queen of Corruption

Now it’s Vanity Fair’s turn to grovel–a lot of groveling in the news today–and “apologize” for airing a humorous video about that living icon of feminism, Hillary Clinton (http://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/vanity-fair-apologizes-video-mocking-clinton).

Yeah, once upon a time, they put her on a pedestal. Now the magazine is getting f-bombed by liberals for suggesting that Hillary “take up knitting” or some other hobby: “anything that would keep you from running again” for president.

Movie stars and other leftids piled onto Vanity Fair, comments laced with profanity, accusations of sexism and misogyny, the usual stuff. So the editors admitted they “missed the mark,” trying to be funny, and they’re very, very sorry for it.

Don’t they know they’re only allowed to mock Republicans? Get with it, gals.

Why does the image of Hillary Clinton knitting evoke memories of Madame DeFarge in A Tale of Two Cities?
