Ugh
What was surfacing in Hillary was the old family psychodrama of the bright, brittle, high-achieving daughter contemptuously outflanking her befuddled, resentful, mediocre brothers at the dinner table.
And how the hell would she know this about Hillary Clinton? Did she make telapathic contact with Senator Clinton? Did Clinton come to her for therapy? Paglia is projecting or something, and it's pretty arrogant to think you can read another person so easily. The contempt also seems to have a personal flavor to it. Paglia may not like Senator Clinton, but the woman has made some impressive history. Any objective observer would say that Clinton's contribution to society far outweighs Paglia's contribution which consists primarily of lame complaints. Live with that Camille.
Of course Paglia really has no place in Salon. She hates the Democrats, our candidates, our ideals, and our goals. Why Salon continues to run her abusive tripe is beyond me. Oh wait, I remember, it's because the left has this self-loathing thing going on where we actually entertain the opinions of those who tell us we suck right to our faces. Then we thank them for it, and even give them a paycheck.
