Hillary still owes Tammy an apology.<\/p>\n<p>It goes back to the 1992 presidential campaign. As she sought to counter the damage that revelations about an extramarital affair (with Gennifer Flowers) was doing to Bill Clinton\u2019s 1992 presidential campaign, she contrasted herself with Tammy Wynette. It&#8217;s been called the interview that has haunted Clinton and hurt her ever since.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking immediately following the Super Bowl on 60 Minutes, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/the-clintons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Clintons were struggling<\/a> to deflect the stories about Bill\u2019s tawdry affairs, Hillary felt it appropriate to defend her husband by denigrating, in a faux Arkansas accent, Wynette\u2019s greatest hit, the 1968 &#8220;Stand by Your Man.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/catholic-bishop-blasts-evil-woman-hillary-clinton-comparing-pro-lifers-taliban-russian-war-crimes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CATHOLIC BISHOP BLASTS \u2018EVIL WOMAN\u2019 HILLARY CLINTON FOR COMPARING PRO-LIFERS TO TALIBAN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m not sittin\u2019 here some little woman standing by my man like Tammy Wynette. I\u2019m sittin\u2019 here because I love him and I respect him and I honor what he\u2019s been through and what we\u2019ve been through together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In referencing Wynette\u2019s greatest hit, Hillary was presumably asserting that she was not standing by Bill, his dalliances notwithstanding, based on some antiquated set of traditional social morals.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, she was doing something far worse. She urged voters to trust in his character only because she had hitched her ambitions to his career and was not about to let his peccadillos derail their marriage of convenience.<\/p>\n<p>Tammy Wynette\u2014born in rural Itawamba County, Mississippi as Virginia Wynette Pugh\u2014was not herself standing for it, it should be noted. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/entertainment\/genres\/country\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">First Lady of Country Music<\/a> wrote a letter to the future First Lady of the United States. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With all that is in me I resent your caustic remark\u2026you have offended every woman and man who love that song \u2013 several million in number.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I would like you to appear with me on any forum and stand toe-to-toe with me. I can assure you, in spite of your education, you will find me to be just as bright as yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will not stand by and allow you or any other person to embarrass, humiliate and degrade me on national television and print without hearing from me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Most telling, however, Wynette\u2014whose &#8220;tear in every note&#8221; artistry has never been matched\u2014showed that she really had Hillary\u2019s number. &#8220;I believe you have offended every true country music fan and every person who has \u2018made it on their own\u2019 with no one to take them to a White House.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE TO GET THE OPINION NEWSLETTER<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There lies the deepest irony in the differences between the two women. Clinton may have sworn allegiance to feminism but Wynette had lived it. She married at 17 in Mississippi and lived with her husband in a shack without running water. Later, As a divorced single-mother, she had supported her children as a hairdresser in Birmingham. She moved to Nashville with no means of support, lived in a motel, and auditioned without an appointment at the office of producer Billy Sherrill, with whom she would brilliantly collaborate.<\/p>\n<p>She never did stand by her man\u2014divorcing Jones, every bit as a great a singer as she. Famously, even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/entertainment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">when she found stardom<\/a>, she took pains each year to renew her Alabama cosmetologist\u2019s license.<\/p>\n<p>All utterly unappreciated by Hillary Clinton, who, as far as is known, never met with nor apologized to Wynette, who died far too young at age 55 in 1998.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The re-telling of Wynette\u2019s years with George Jones could be the occasion for recompense on Clinton\u2019s part. In Tremont, Mississippi, she could visit the Tammy Wynette Legacy Park, which &#8220;allows the visitor to take a walk through time from the dreams of a little girl playing piano and singing hymns in her small country church to becoming a country music legend.&#8221; One can only assume it could make good use of a donation from the Clinton Foundation. <\/p>\n<p>Her deprecation of Tammy Wynette explains as well as anything why Hillary Clinton never became President. It foreshadowed her later dismissing half the country as &#8220;deplorables.&#8221; It revealed a shallow elitism and a disdain for traditional social values. If she really has an interest in helping to heal a culturally divided country, it\u2019s not too late for an apology.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/person\/h\/howard-husock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM HOWARD HUSOCK<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/hillary-clinton-still-owes-tammy-wynette-apology\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/hillary-clinton-still-owes-tammy-wynette-apology <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The First Lady of Country Music Tammy Wynette is back in the cultural spotlight 24 years after her death, thanks to a new Showtime series [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-49701","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
