“... Coattail rider and enabler of a sexual criminal ...”
Oh my, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone describe Hillary that way before. But I have to say I totally agree with the above statement.
I thought the same about Christopher Hitchens. I didn’t agree with him on most....but respected his POV. Same with Pat Condell.

Thanks for posting. Admire her immensely.
gai.... Internet says she’s married.
I know her personally having spent several evenings conversing & sharing some good food & wine with her back in the 90s with a group of people. She’s intelligent, but a chaotic thinker, who more often than not comes across as a typical leftist. Great company though & she has guts going up against the worst elements of the left, but she is, in the end, very much a product of the left.
She is also one of the most rapid fire talkers I’ve heard.
Wasn’t about voice or appearance. Reading what they wrote gives a deeper insight into their minds.
I believe the prevailing answer here at Free Republic, as stated is that homosexuality is wrong.
It's the wrong tone.
I think she's aware that she's very much a product of the Left.
Yup, and that’s what makes her, in the end, a chaotic mess as a thinker.
I would answer that "no", Paglia is NOT immoral.
She shanked Clinton repeatedly during the impeachment wars - pretty much the only Lefty to stand up for what is moral.
She's an awesome writer.
While I agree with you, I'll say that echo chambers have their place and benefits, too. It's like everybody at dinner getting the same dessert -- there's no opportunity to share in something different from what one is eating. But at the same time, one won't be subjected to someone else eating something disgusting. And having spent a little time (very little, thank God!) reading comments on a few liberal political sites, I'm just as happy that they aren't welcomed here.
Paglia is a rare gem, a shining example of how somebody with a different point of view can be smart and witty and incisive, can disagree without being disagreeable, and everybody gets to learn something and come away enriched. It's just a shame that such erudition is so rare.
That’s for sure. Trying to follow her is like trying to drink from a fire hydrant.
She's not intellectually lazy, unlike most on the Left, and some few on the Right.
Do I have the right of it, LongWayHome?
Thank for posting this.

Oh, this I gotta hear.
This woman is off the hook awesome.
More intelkigent than me and deeply ascerbic as only someone with an incredible mind could be.
I’d also like to have her with me in a bar fight.
She doesn’t pull her punches for anyone.
I like her. She shares many of the same enemies that I do....I just never forget that she’s a leftist. And leftists are not first rate intellects no matter how delightful she is as a party guest, or writer/speaker....Bon vivant.
