Fear and loathing on Hillary Clinton's grievance tour
The Week ^

Posted on 10/27/2017 2:06:10 PM PDT by bigdaddy45

On Tuesday evening, it cost me $200 to obtain the privilege of sitting in one of the top rows in the upper balcony section of a massive auditorium and watching a tiny blue dot surrounded by phlegmy yellow light.

The amazing thing about this dot is that it could talk. This was confirmed by sound emerging from speakers hidden somewhere behind me and a glance at the not-even-movie-theater-sized screen behind it. The dot congratulated members of something it called "the Hillary Clinton Fan Club," which might be because the dot in question was, in fact, the aforementioned former secretary of state herself.

Clinton was here in the appropriately named Hill Auditorium allegedly to promote her new memoir, What Happened. It was the first book tour event that I have ever heard of charging admission, much less offering tickets — mine were among the cheapest — at prices that could easily get you into the Michigan-Ohio State game. There are 3,500 seats in the auditorium, and all of them looked full.

But the really extraordinary thing was that Clinton didn't actually seem to want to talk about her book. What I heard instead sounded a lot like a cry for help.

I only wish I could write this well. The continued implosion of Hillary Clinton is very entertaining.

Just read it. I think you are both right. The author put together an informative review with some very nicely phrased language overall. Point for bd45.

Miss Marmelstein, for me, what started out as a delightful read mired down about halfway through. The writer doesn’t appreciate the value of changing up the sentence structure. A few of these long, cleverly worded sentences go a long way. The piece needed short, trenchant sentences to punch up the flow. Any style grates after a while. Or to use the old aphorism, variety is the spice of life.

I’m glad I read it. The writer did convey a vivid sense of what these Hillary talks are like. Including the [weirdly bizarre] bits about Igor and pizzagate provided exactly the right amount and flavor of detail. The style could have been improved in places, but the content got the job nicely done.

3500 seats is a "massive auditorium?" Sounds more like a high school gym.

And it's hard to imagine the ponderous cankles being a "tiny blue dot" from any distance nearer than Pluto.

What Happened? IT continues to happen. Out-of-touch politicians are clueless. Hillaryous lost the info war. The cover-ups, propagandists, were more effective back in the day. Truth marches on.

It’s beyond my comprehension how anyone in their right mind would want to listen to anything this raving lunatic has to say.

Kankles is the ultimate petulant crybaby woman, marches around saying how tough she is, “I can take on any man and beat him, I am woman hear me roar!” etc.

Then “the boys” kick her giagantic @ss, and all she does is run around crying about how the boys are being mean.

SMIRK.
