Go Out On A Limb: Vote for Heather
The Boston Herald ^ | March 25, 2007 | Margery Eagan

Here’s why we should all root for the almost-ex-Mrs. Paul McCartney, Heather Mills, performing again tomorrow night on ABC’s ridiculous “Dancing With the Stars.”

Because nobody else will.

“A bitch.” “A whore.” “A leach.” “A liar.” “A shameless gold digger.” “Losing her leg was the best thing that ever happened to her . . . publicity-wise.”

“Sir Paul should get her prosthetic leg as part of his divorce.”

“Yeah, she should certainly lose her other leg, too.”

This is what’s printable here from bloggers. Nearly everybody hates her on the “Dancing” Web site, too.

In the respectable British press - as in, not the super-salacious, topless-women-everywhere, Fleet Street tabloids - it’s more of the “bitch,” “whore,”“leach,” “liar,” “shameless gold digger” stuff.

And writers implying, if not actually saying, that losing her leg was the best thing that ever happened to Mills . . . publicity-wise. And maybe if she lost her other leg, too, she wouldn’t be on “Dancing With the Stars” with Las Vegas betting “will the leg fall off?” as she whirls around, as she did last week, in that tacky, yellow, almost fluorescent ballgown with the hot-pink gloves and, let’s face it, rather “whore-like” hot-pink trim.

But give her this: Did you ever imagine an amputee could be so graceful? That a fake leg, and ankle, could look so shapely and function so well? I mean, did you check out those gold, strappy, sexy shoes? Plus, she herself has made jokes about her leg flying off and hitting a judge, proving amputees have a sense of humor. About amputation.

This is a moment of hope, isn’t it, for all others who’ve lost limbs, including the thousands returning from Iraq and Afghanistan?

And how about this? Besides claims that McCartney beat her, cut her with a shard of glass, drank and drugged himself into oblivion, she also claimed he refused to let her breast-feed their daughter, Beatrice, declaring, “They are my breasts!”

That’s a tad weird, no?

I know. Supposedly she forced Paul to dye his hair! Fire his publicist! Get a face-lift! (An awful one at that.) We’re talking Warren Beatty territory here, actually.

And his children hate her, particularly designer Stella, who refused to invite Heather to the A-list party opening of her new London store.

And Heather allegedly made up half her life.

Was she, or was she not, molested by her former swim coach, kept locked in his flat for three nightmarish days? Well, this much we do know: She came from an abusive home, ran away at 13, suffered two ectopic pregnancies, uterine cancer and lost her leg in 1993 - but instead of shrinking away, became a crusader for amputees and against land mines, like the late Diana, Princess of Wales.

We know this too: Half of Britain, particularly women, was equally vicious toward McCartney’s first wife, Linda, yet another “bitch,” “whore,”“leach,” “liar” and “shameless gold digger.” Until she died. Then she became a saint.

Meanwhile, nobody’s dumping on McCartney for taking up with a woman his children’s age less than a year after Linda died. So gorgeous Heather was willing to offer herself to a saggy, jiggly, Viagra-ed up senior citizen deluding himself, as all these rich guys do, into believing his geriatric love techniques had her swooning. Not his millions. I think a big chunk of his cash is fair exchange for Heather’s nightly, ghastly tasks.

By the way, Sir Paul is 64. Remember the song he wrote, at 15? “Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I ’m 64?” At long last, we have our answer.

Apparently before he realized they were in the "public domain"...

"Heather was willing to offer herself to a saggy, jiggly, Viagra-ed up senior citizen .... a big chunk of his cash is fair exchange for Heather’s nightly, ghastly tasks."

And for this reason we should vote for her?

Leftys are demented.

Kind of reinforces that whore thing, doesn't it.

Undeducated feminist drone.


LEECH noun 1. any bloodsucking or carnivorous aquatic or terrestrial worm of the class Hirudinea, certain freshwater species of which were formerly much used in medicine for bloodletting.
2. a person who clings to another for personal gain, esp. without giving anything in return, and usually with the implication or effect of exhausting the other's resources; parasite.
3. Archaic. an instrument used for drawing blood.

A "leach", Margery? It took me all of two seconds to find this definition. This is what you are trying to say, right?
You used the wrong word three times, you moron. It's now very difficult to pay attention to the rest of your sophomoric rant. A hat tip to your brilliant editors, too.

The notion that Linda EASTMAN McCartney was a shameless golddigger is beyohnd absurd. She came from a wealthy American family. That family, by the way, helped McCartney become the billionaire he is today.

People hate Heather for other reasons....

Sainthood is not in Heather's future.

I suppose so, since he just signed to a new label and has a new album being released in a few weeks.

In answer to your next question; yes, there was alcohol involved. :-)
