Camille Paglia?!?!?

Must be a slow news day!

The mountain of rubbish poured out about Palin over the past month would rival Everest. What a disgrace for our jabbering army of liberal journalists and commentators, too many of whom behaved like snippy jackasses. The bourgeois conventionalism and rank snobbery of these alleged humanitarians stank up the place. As for Palin’s brutally edited interviews with Charlie Gibson and that viper, Katie Couric, don’t we all know that the best bits ended up on the cutting-room floor? Something has gone seriously wrong with Democratic ideology, which seems to have become a candied set of holier-than-thou bromides attached like tutti-frutti to a quivering green Jell-O mold of adolescent sentimentality.

That’s great satire!
Wait.
It is satire.
Right?
Right?

And where is all that lurid sexual fantasy coming from? When I watch Sarah Palin, I don’t think sex — I think Amazon warrior!

If that’s the case, WTF is this (3 paragraphs later) doing in the article?!?

On the contrary, I was admiring not only her always shapely and syncopated syllables but the innate structures of her discourse —

I repeat – This MUST be satire…

Camille Paglia’s old ass should know better. Just for that I’m going to quote French leftist, Bernard-Henri Levy’s famous dictum to her, if I could remember his famous dictum.

That’s Just What I Said

I’ve long thought of Camille as the female Rush Limbaugh — so full of shit, I won’t be surprised if she explodes one day, splattering doo-do all over the immediate vicinity. In fact, I fully expect it. There’s only so much shit shoveling you can do before it becomes detrimental to your health.

Pardon my potty mouth. There is just no way to pretty it up.

Molly Ivins (bless her soul) utterly destroyed Paglia years ago.

To quote Ms. Ivins, “Sheesh, what an asshole.”

Apparently, Paglia looked into Palin’s eyes and saw a smoldering intellect that no one but her can understand and appreciate.

In Seinfeld terms, Paglia is saying, “I’m there for you.”

What rubbish. She just happens to know that the interviews were “brutally edited.” I’ve been around a lot of people, too, who speak colloquially and have non-standard speech, but they still have something to say. Palin has nothing but index cards. Instead of inserting her Paglian discourse into Palin’s shapely mouth, she should present Palin’s own, exact words and expose what we are all too bourgeois to understand.

And then she can wipe herself down.

The mystery isn’t whether CP is an ass (of course she is), but why Joan Walsh continues to give the troll a platform.

oh thank you TBogg for taking on that wrinkled old sack of toad shit today. I never would have thought that even HER hideous ass would sink to this level, which proves how naive I am.

Rich Lowry Redux, Ugly Old Dyke version.

YES.

Then again, Walsh ain’t no Molly Ivins.

“Verbal primitivism”? Is that a nine-dollar synonym for “dumb chick”?

It’s times like these I sure do miss Molly Ivins.

As for Palin’s brutally edited interviews with Charlie Gibson and that viper, Katie Couric…

Katie Couric = viper? You betcha. We should’ve known that perky facade was hiding a vicious and dangerous woman all along.

Oh, my, now I’ve got a case of uncontrollable giggles.

What Walsh has done for Salon, I wish she’d do for the GOP…ruin it.

I guess Salon withholds Paglia’s anti-psychotics periodically- long enough to get her to rattle of some more delusional drivel. what a peach.

“The value of Ivy League degrees, like sub-prime mortgages, has certainly been plummeting. As a Yale Ph.D., I have a perfect right to my scorn.”

As the aunt of a Yale student who got there on a full scholarship because of her dedication and hard work, I resent this devaluation of a degree from this institute. Paglia is saying, in essence that all degrees issued after hers are of less value, because when she graduated they should have just closed the damned school.

The indulgence this clearly addled woman gets from Salon and people like James Wolcott really mystifies me.

full of…whore’s hockey

I’ve long thought of Camille as the female Rush Limbaugh

The only similarity is that each is incredibly fond of the sound of his/her own voice. The difference is that Limbaugh is just plain evil while Paglia is just plain batshit crazy.

Page clicks from the haters, I guess. Then again, Salon always seems to publish something so flabbergastingly stupid, just frequently enough, that I manage not to feel guilty for not subscribing.

Terrible Misfortune Alert. Madonna doesn’t share Paglia’s good opinion of Palin. To wit -

Oddly enough, that’s exactly what 87.3% of the Yale graduates of the preceding year said after reading Paglia’s Sexual Personae. Funny how that works.

Something has gone seriously wrong with Democratic ideology, which seems to have become a candied set of holier-than-thou bromides attached like tutti-frutti to a quivering green Jell-O mold of adolescent sentimentality.

There’s something suspect about a Yale Ph.D. who has such an intimate familiarity with Jell-O mold salads. Yeah, I know she’ll defend by tossing off a factoid like: “Even the Queen of England serves Jell-O mold salads at the Royal table!” Of course the Royals are rife with dental problems that make crunchy green veggies problematic.
