no, it’s not surprising.
she was denied a tenured faculty position because she did not agree with the feminists.
she got hired at an arts college, outside of the tenure track in her field.
she made her reputation by writing books.
I read this article, and the first thing that came to mind is “Ah, Camille has been annointed as the token liberal to start making sense about Palin, just so the libs have someone to point to and go ‘see, we don’t ALL attack her’.”
Facial features of Native American? If the Left can call Malkin a racist for using street lingo, can we call Camille a racist for this remark?
Articulate. Hypocrite. No need to read further. Next thread.
Camille is a liberal, but not a nonsensical one. She does make sense from time to time, and is not agenda driven like most of the liberal media.
Dream on, Camille. Your boy B-HO will be done in exactly four weeks.
But at least you're not drinking the anti-Sarah Koolaid.
Not surprising to me. Paglia has been turning conservative for years now. She saw the light, for the most part.
So why is she still voting for Obama?
Frankly, I thought the token lib filling that role was Greta...
lol....she has a lot more turning to do. (As she states in the article she's voting for Obama, and is hoping he serves two terms).
Not too surprising, though. She’s one of the few intellectually honest liberals.
I generally find it disappointing to read Paglia. She makes sense for a moment or two and then veers off into some bizarre riff on fashion, Madonna or what have you. Her considerable writing ability masks the fact that she really isn’t much of a thinker.
The same reason so many grandparents are. They've always voted for the guy with a D after their name.
Now give me a memorable line from Sarah. I'll bet three or four come to mind immediately (hockey moms...lipstick...say it ain't so Joe....shout out...extra credit....fake Greek columns)
I'm sure some of their lines looked good on paper too, but hers are memorable because of her delivery and presence.
Slow, but sure. Ed Koch is voting for Obama, too.
Spot on, Camille.
I don’t find this suprising at all. It’s rather consistent with her earlier writings (way, way before Palin even appeared on the radar).
Considering the video FOX News showed of Madonna tonight, ranting against Palin at a concert, I would say Paglia is right on the money.
My daughter's geometry teacher is a hard core Obamanoid...and has used her position to push her political stance relentlessly.
(Not that unusual, I believe. My Freshman Calc professor believed in teaching "Marxist Calculus" -- and this was back in the 70s -- LOL)
Anyway, Monday morning, the kids had a test. She came up to my daugher's place, took her scratch paper, and wrote "She did good Friday night" -- talking about Palin's performance in the debate.
H3ll, the President of the LA Chapter of NOW (or, as Rush says, NAG) formally endorsed Sarah. Not McLame. Sarah.
So who knows???
