Who is Camille Paglia?

I must confess, although I've heard the name, that I had no idea what Camille Paglia was all about until the Salon interview.   I don't agree with everything she said in the interview, but I was impressed by her candid analysis of many subjects from feminism to politics and found my self nodding my head and saying to myself "that makes a lot of sense".  I hope Salon will forgive me for posting the interview on my little blog, which nobody will ever see, I just wanted a record of what this extrordinary woman had to say so I could refer to it in the future.

Straight Talk from Camille Paglia

In her recent interview with her employer Salon magazine Camille Paglia says a lot about modern culture from religion to comedy to politics, and amazingly much of what she says rings true to me a confirmed moderate who longs for the good of days of the 1960s.  When asked how she started her news reading day Puglia said she starts with The Drudge Report, as do I, at this point she had me.  She lost me a little bit when she professed her support for Martin O'Malley, whose politcies and rule in Maryland caused the Baltimore riots in my opinion, but she won me back with her astute analysis of Donald Trump.

Kate Steinle

I am wondering what goes through President Obama's mind, as soon as two black men are shot and killed, one in Florida and one in Missouri, he is in front of the cameras prostylicizing about the tragic circumstances of the killings and how the country needs to take a hard look at itself in the mirror.  Yet, he has not said a word about the tragic murder of Kate Steinle in San Francisco.
