    Well that was the name of Hilary’s book, so you’re not alone in thinking of her when you hear that phrase.

    It was actually a different book, something about women in history, which was the motivation of the interview. I think Chelsea co-wrote it. Or edited it.

      Yeah it was "The Book of Gutsy Women" by Hillary and Chelsea. So gross. A right wing talking point I heard was that Thatcher was not included in the list.

        Fair enough. I’m just saying that many of us first heard ‘It takes a village’ for the first time when Hillary published a book by that name in the 90s.

          By the way what does any of that have to do with Mahar’s piece on gender apartheid?

            His talk makes sense.

            (But, if I can be a nitpick. I dont like that he pauses for "applause". Kind of like he is forcing it from people)

                Maher is right, but I'm not sure some privileged college kid protesting gender apartheid on an American university campus will make one bit of difference in the Muslim world.

                    Agree. I think it was you who pointed out that most of the protestors really have no idea what they are protesting for.

                      There's a certain directional equivalence between the Hillary/Chelsea collaboration and the attitude Maher is commenting on, if you'd care to devote a thought to understanding rather than dunking. My mind makes zoomed out connections, it is a curse.
