Right-Wing Nutball Wants To "Shoot [Hillary Clinton] In The Vagina" Over Benghazi

May 20, 2013 at 11:16AM By Anna Breslaw |

There are some trolls it's not even worth writing about. Picking your battles is tantamount to not burning out early, or becoming totally cynical, but this is too severe to simply let slide. During a rant that criticized Hillary Clinton for the U.S. Consulate attack in Benghazi, Libya last year, right wing radio host Pete Santilli says: "Hillary Clinton needs to be convicted. She needs to be tried, convicted and shot in the vagina. I want to pull the trigger." He says it twice, in fact. In case we couldn't hear it the first time. HuffPo has the clip and a transcript:

"I want to shoot her right in the vagina and I don't want her to die right away; I want her to feel the pain and I want to look her in the eyes and I want to say, on behalf of all Americans that you've killed, on behalf of the Navy SEALS, the families of Navy SEAL Team Six who were involved in the fake hunt down of this Obama, Obama bin Laden thing, that whole fake scenario, because these Navy SEALS know the truth, they killed them all. On behalf of all of those people, I'm supporting our troops by saying we need to try, convict, and shoot Hillary Clinton in the vagina."

Call me crazy, but I'm pretty sure there's a way to criticize Clinton's political movements without bringing her vagina into it at all, let alone including automatic weapons in the sentence: Has anyone ever snapped, "Darn that President Obama for failing to get those stricter gun control restrictions passed! I want to throw apple cider vinegar on his 'nads. I WANT TO BE THE ONE TO DO IT?" No. No, they have not. Because, uhhhh, A) A politician's shortcomings and their genitals have nothing in common with each other, and B) Most of us took our medication this morning.

Santilli reportedly plans to apologize to those who "took his words out of context" (impossible to do, incidentally) on his next show. He's been no prize in the past, known primarily for his extremism and conspiracy theories (e.g. that George H.W. Bush was responsible for John F. Kennedy's assassination), and he hosts his radio show on his website — no doubt because his wackadoo misogyny isn't AM or FM friendly. Please, Christ on a mother-effing cracker, let it stay that way.

Hollywood, Please Make the Hillary Clinton Biopic <i>Rodham</i>

Hillary Rodham Clinton might be the first female president of the U.S. some day (2016?), but once upon a time she was just a sassy single lawyer juggling her career dreams and a long-distance relationship with her hot boyfriend, Bill.

This Sex and the City-esque tale of Hillary's early years is both the stuff of our dreams and the premise of the red-hot screenplay Rodham, which is circulating in Hollywood with the potential of becoming a big-screen Hillary biopic. Move over, The Iron Lady!

Rodham screenwriter Young Il Kim told Politico the script is "a journey of a woman who was torn between her personal desires and her professional ambition—both literally pulled her thousands of miles apart, because Bill did not want to leave Arkansas, and she did not want to leave Washington, D.C."

Before she was first lady and secretary of state, twenty-something Hill was the youngest attorney on the House Judiciary Committee working to impeach President Richard Nixon. Mr. Big, a.k.a future president Bill Clinton, was chasing his political ambitions in Arkansas. (Eventually, she moved to Little Rock.)

How heartening to know that Hillary was once a young singleton, trying to get her act together, maybe occasionally taking a break from impeaching the president to have a cocktail or two with her girlfriends on the Hill and tipsy-dialing Bill from the nearest payphone? Sounds just like some ladies we know IRL 2013.

Among the many additional reasons we would like to see this film: fiery intellectual Clinton fights and subsequent love scenes! And, seriously, a look at how Hill laid the groundwork for her badass career.

Though Rodham is just a script right now, there's a good chance it'll head to the big screen, considering it made Hollywood's Black List, the annual, uber-powerful roster of film execs' favorite screenplays. (Past films who made the cut included Oscar nominees The Social Network and The King's Speech.)

Who should play young Hillary? After seeing how she deftly transformed into Princess Diana, we're thinking Naomi Watts. If you guys have any ideas, holler at us.
