There's
an old joke about the salesman who makes a call on a purchasing agent
he detests. "Oh,
I'm sorry," says the receptionist, "but Mr. Jones passed away
yesterday." The fellow leaves, but the next day is back again
asking
for Mr. Jones. "I'm so sorry, but Mr. Jones passed away Sunday
morning," replies the receptionist. Next day, he's back again
asking
to see Jones. Now the receptionist is tired of it all.
"Look, I know you feel the loss of Mr. Jones deeply, but I told you
Monday that he died, and again on Tuesday, and here you are
again.
He's dead. Accept it," she responds.
Oh, I know he's dead. I just enjoy hearing you say it.
That's why I'm posting
this excerpt from Camille Paglia's "Hillary's
slick willies," in which she answers reader questions.

I
would like to get your feedback on the subject of those who end up in
Hillary's orbit. Can you conceive of a strong, leader-type male
ever
working under her? An alpha, if you will. And if the answer is no, then
why do you think that is?
The
men
you always see under her are to a person passive-aggressive, sadistic,
mean, little, petty beta-male pieces of work who would not naturally
succeed in a common male-type hierarchy. By that I mean an environment
that values straightforward achievement rather than the darker
political arts.
...
What
kind of person would go to work for a Clinton in the first place? A
naive true-believer? Everyone knows what they would be getting into:
constant war rooms, personal attacks, spin, daily damage control, a
boss prone to temper tantrums, placing your own integrity out on the
ledge as a shill for a fundamentally dishonest person. I would argue
that nobody who hasn't already sold their soul years ago would ever
want to be a part of that mess.
Your
thoughts?
