Hateful GOP base targets Chelsea Clinton for being smart, pretty and successful

http://www.ifyouonlynews.com/politics/hateful-gop-base-targets-chelsea-clinton-for-being-smart-pretty-and-successful-image/

Chelsea Clinton has since moved on, and after many years of bettering herself through higher education, has blossomed into an incredibly intelligent, successful, and beautiful woman.

In essence, she is everything the GOP and their base hates. Beautiful women should wear swimsuits or don mini-skirts and host for Fox News. Intelligent women don’t exist. Successful women are those who marry successful men.

It comes as no surprise in the time leading up to the 2016 Presidential election that the right-wing nut jobs would pull out the propaganda mill and attack Chelsea, hoping any kind of attack on a Clinton will trickle down to her mother.

This meme, posted on the hate page “Hillary Clinton’s Crab Lice,” shows just how low the right will go to discredit someone who, through her own personal achievements and hard work, is poised to make an actual difference in the world she lives in.

However, how is 'pretty' an accomplishment for a modern woman? Seriously. How many times have we had this discussion here, that women are not sex objects, it's what's inside that counts, and yet here we are, validating the view that a woman is who she is, in part, on account of her physical appearance, i.e., prettiness. Sad.
