Top Feminist -- Hillary Clinton Has ‘Accomplished Nothing’ In Life

From the Daily Caller:
Leading feminist and cultural critic Camille Paglia has eviscerated her fellow Democrats for allowing Hillary Clinton to dominate the presidential field, saying Clinton has “accomplished nothing substantial” in her entire career. Simultaneously, though, she condemned Republican candidates such as Rand Paul for lacking the “gravitas” to be president.

“Hillary has accomplished nothing substantial in her life,” Paglia told the website Salon in the last part of a lengthy three-party interview. “She’s been pushed along, coasting on her husband’s coattails, and every job she’s been given fizzled out into time-serving or overt disaster.
Paglia doesn’t let up, instead bashing Clinton at length as essentially a fraud.

Paglia has asked the same question I have asked since 2007, "What has Hillary accomplished that was not connected to her husband?"

The answer I usually get is silence.

Excuse me, but what, exactly, does Hillary Clinton actually bring to the table?

Camille Paglia does what she does best, skewers people with her words.  Her current target, Hillary Clinton.
And what exactly has she ever accomplished — beyond bullishly covering for her philandering husband?
This is the simplest question to ask Hilary supporters.  And watching the contortions of the supporter trying to justify their support of Hillary. It is almost as amusing as entertaining.

She take a shot at Anthony Weiner that would make one think it was being written by conservative firebrand Ann Coulter:
Two words: pathetic dork. How sickeningly debased our politics have become that this jabbering cartoon weasel could be taken seriously for a second as a candidate for mayor of New York. But beyond that, I have been amazed by the almost total absence of psychological critique in news analyses of the silly Weiner saga. For heaven’s sake, Weiner is no randy stud with a sophisticated sex life that we need to respect. The compulsion to exhibit and boast about one’s penis is embarrassingly infantile — the obvious residue of some squalid family psychodrama in childhood that is now being replayed in public.
