Video: Camille Paglia's rant on the "mess" that is Hillary Clinton
3/19/2015 10:01:41 PM  Mary Katharine Ham

I like Camille Paglia. She’s ornery and interesting, not subservient to the orthodoxies so stultifying to other public intellectual academic types of her acclaim. Reason TV’s Nick Gillespie did an hour-long interview with the woman herself,

To cleanse the palate, consider this a formal retraction. Earlier today, I credited Hillary Clinton with a rare novel idea in suggesting camps for adults. Turns out not only is that idea not novel, it was implemented this very week in — where else?
