SALEM — During a Clinton rally here, a couple goofballs stood up during her speech and started yelling, “Iron my shirt!” They had yellow signs that said the same.
They were dragged away.
Clinton said “Sexism rears its ugly head,” and referenced the glass ceiling. She got her only standing-o of the night. She later made a joke about anyone wanting to iron their own shirts who needed a lesson in ironing could stick around.
It was an odd moment because my guess is that they were sort of pranksters, like Borat, not sexists.
The Daily News caught up to them.
Iron my shirt was apparently a sexist rallying cry at one time.
Obama was heckled by anti-abortion protesters. He hailed America’s history of civil disobediance like the kind they were practicing and congratulated them for being organized enough to pull it off.
