Edward Klein's new book, ''The Truth About Hillary,'' is not a biography, to be evaluated in terms of how well or poorly it relates to real events or a real person; it is something much more revealing -- a kind of cultural dreamwork, like that in 18th-century penny ballads that linked real political figures to folklore, giving them supernatural traits. In the stories that Klein tells, we can clearly see the collective unconscious of our culture at work, throwing up vivid, even lurid fantasies that emerge out of the shifting balance of power between women and men.

Hitlery epitomizes the 60's 'me-mentality' that now permeates our government, media and culture in general.
-----
But you left our the RADICAL SOCIALISM which Hitlery embodies and wants to put upon this country in spades...

Has the NY Times actually reviewed this book? This is not a book review, by any stretch of the word. It's been as high as #2 on the NY Times own best seller list. The boycott of conservative titles goes on in the liberal socialist press.
To: Past Your Eyes
Well, actually, there's lots of other good things in the NY Times besides their wrong headed political views. Architecture, design, food, classical music, travel, some business stuff.
Yes, politically, they're wrong, but you don't live on politics alone.

You don't have to tell me that. I know their biases.

Klein quotes rumors about Donna Shalala and Janet Reno's sexuality -- ''their orientations are shrouded in deep ambiguity.''Rumor? Shalala openly attends UM events (she is president of the Univeristy of Miami) with the woman she lives with.

I've seen Naomi on a few talk shows (Dennis Miller show for one) and she comes across just a little smarter than Arianna Huffington. And that ain't saying much.

Does anybody remember, early in the Beelzebubba years a Secret Service agent claimed to have walked in on the Hildebeeste and Mary Steenbergen queering off in the White House?

The NYSlimes also had an article about one of Hil's early 'lovers' from Wellesley. It got quotes from the woman and portrayed her as married.
WRONG... LIES! Klein was on Hannity shortly after and reaffirmed his statement that the woman was... and still is a lesbo.
