Is there a more mediocre mind -- let alone writer -- posing as a daring intellectual provocateur than Camille Paglia?

Just wondering.

I especially had to gag upon reading this:

And I'm sick of people impugning Rush's wealth and lifestyle, which is no different from that of another virtuoso broadcaster who hit it big -- Oprah Winfrey.

Yeah, because Oprah also used her Latino housecleaner to help run drugs to support her Oxycontin habit. And Oprah is in the habit of flying to the Dominican Republic with valises full of Viagra. No different lifestyle at all.
