Typical leftwing hypocrisy as they only praise leftwing women.
It only means good that Lefties hate Sarah Palin.
One hopes they don’t realize we like they don’t like Palin cause they might start praising her!
Palin obviously scoring direct hits on Obama. The liberal media is again out bashing her trying to protect their false messiah.
Sally Quinn is still alive???
The home wrecker speaks.
Sally who ?
“Brach quotes the spiritual teacher Swami Satchidananda as saying that the difference between illness and wellness is the I in illness and the We in wellness.”
Oh how deep and meaningful!
I think I heard someone else say that once ..after 5 bongs and a 6 pack of beer.
Right up there with DOG being GOD spelled backwards as the genius ruminations of a true philosopher.
Sally Quinn.... is she still breathing?
Just did the math: “Sexy Sally”, for those of us who remember how she burst upon the scene in 1974, is now seventy-three years old, and like all aging atheists approaching mortal burnout, is turning extremely bitter against those younger & prettier women with whom she disagrees.
Sally’s been the liberal Empress of Washington ever since she slept her way into Ben Bradlee’s throne of power. Not even Hillary dared mess with her.
Her high dudgeon against Sarah Palin carries no enforceable penalty, and the latter will make Sally’s disapproval a component of any future political platform.
1.) Good thing the Swami speaks English, because that doesn't work in Hindu. Or any other language.
2.) Does that mean we don't need Obama care after all, now that we've discovered that illness is merely misplaced selfishness?
Over a long career at the Washington Post, Sally Quinn has had more than her share of controversies, sometimes about her personal life (her affair with and later marriage to then-Executive Editor Ben Bradlee) and more frequently because of something she wrote (a Carter-era story of hers which claimed that Zbiginiew Brzezinski jokingly opened his fly in front of a reporter had to be retracted).
What got her a ton of criticism inside and outside the Post Friday was a combination of both - using her Style section column to try to explain what appears to be a nasty family squabble pitting her against Bradlee’s son and former daughter-in-law from an earlier marriage.

I love reality, lib comedy writers couldn’t make this up.
Sounds like you inherited the class too.
A worthless target attracts no fire.
Boy, “Page Six” was right: Vanity Fair’s profile of Washington, D.C., society matron Sally Quinn contains some scathing details. In addition to rehashing the bizarre incident that led to the cancellation of her Post entertaining column, “The Party,” it also cherry-picks several other unflattering anecdotes about Quinn, who made her name first as a society writer for the Washington Post and later as the third wife of its former executive editor Ben Bradlee. Like the time when she went ballistic after her learning-disabled son, Quinn (yes, his first name is her last name), lost his virginity to a prostitute in St. Martin. Or how stories conflict on when she started sleeping with Bradlee and publicly started joking about it even though he was still married to his second wife.
It’s almost shocking, in a way, that a magazine like Vanity Fair would write a story that paints Sally Quinn among the last of a dying society breed that fills their pages as a status- and image-obsessed social climber. But perhaps most heartbreaking (and not in a flattering way) was this anecdote, told about her son Quinn, who has VCFS, “a syndrome that affects his heart, facial structure, immune system, and ability to talk and comprehend.”
She recalls the day Quinn’s best friend heard he’d been accepted to Harvard. All of our friends’ kids were all getting into Harvard, Yale, and Princeton, and Brown. I went to a screening that night and I ran into [documentary-film maker] Charles Guggenheim. He came up and gave me a kiss and said, How are you?, and I burst into tears. He said, What’s the matter? And I just said, Quinn’s best friend just got into Harvard. And Quinn will never go to any college, and I just feel so defeated.

Bahahahaha now that’s funny! LOL Thanks for giving me a chuckle!
In the Washington Post Magazine this weekend, Sally Quinnwife of former legendary Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee, former religion columnist and social lionesswrote a jaw-dropping piece about How Washington Has Changed For The Worse. As a friend said, “Every time you think this column can’t get more deranged, there’s another paragraph.” Here’s a summary: Crude people like the Kardashians and the Gingriches are getting attention, instead of my husband and me. That’s appalling. We important people used to be in charge of getting things done here in Washington. But now people like me are pointless, because Washington is all about money. Important people won’t even come to my dinner parties any more. Well, f*** ‘em, I’ll just have friends instead.
The astonishing part is that she publishes it as if we ought to sympathize. Some excerpts:

My husband Ben Bradlee got the Medal of Freedom from the President. Obama said he wouldn’t dare wear the white collar shirts Ben does.

I wonder if Liz Cheney thinks that her losing campaign was worth hurting her sister, causing pain and humiliation to the rest of her family?
