Camille Paglia speaks about Obama 4 years later.
Obama Care - "A stalinist intrusion into american culture"
" I consider him one of the most racially divisive & polarizing figures ever. I t will take years to undo the damage he has done" She originally thought his election would promote racial healing
"Obama is a statist " Quoting lyrics from a Bob Dylan song " You don't want government agencies being empowered to intrude into people's lives like this.
Truth is a ***** Ms Paglia . You have my sympathies.

Posted: 10/29/12 at 2:37pmCamille Paglia? A liberal? She has been spouting the same rhetoric about rape that our midwestern Republican candidates have been getting in trouble for lately.

I was expecting some Southern DINO politico being mentioned but CAMILLE PAGLIA. Oh my. She who considers everybody at the Village Voice to be Stalinists and, in fact, considers just about anybody who challenges her whacked out near Randian idea of feminism to be Stalinists?

Posted: 10/29/12 at 2:58pmOf course, Roxy has never heard of her before. And of course, all articles like this exist in a vacuum for him.

Camille brings out the best in her critics (of which, there are deservedly PLENTY):
Naomi Wolf called her "the nipple-pierced person's Phyllis Schlafly who poses as a sexual renegade but is in fact the most dutiful of patriarchal daughters"
Gloria Steinem said "Her calling herself a feminist is sort of like a Nazi saying they're not anti-Semitic."

Don't take Camille's word for it, let's hear what Oliver Stone had to say:
"The country Obama inherited was indeed in shambles, but Obama took a bad situation and, in certain ways, made it worse"

Camille Paglia and Oliver Stone are not liberals.
They're provocateurs.
It's not the same thing.

Oliver Stone? that name sounds so familiar. Is he the one who said Osama Bin Laden was being protected by the oil companies and never brought to justice? And that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were faked in order to steal over a hundred million dollars?
Yes. He is.

"Take heart liberals, Cher would take Bush over Romney."
Well, at least Levi Johnston's come to his senses. Seems he's leaning towards Obama among other recent revelations.

Camille Paglia is, at best, a perversely brilliant provocateur rarely to be taken seriously. At worst, she's just nuts. Or maybe I got that in reverse.
Anyone who thinks Obama is vaguely Stalinist is insane. And though he is a racially divisive figure, the reason for that is that he is the black president of a racist country. He is not responsibly for ignorant, frightened people, spoonfed by plutocrats, finding that divisive.

It's so funny, because noted liberal George Will said that the greatest thing about being alive in the US in 2012 is the portrait of America's First Family.
