What Ever Happened To Baby Hillary?

Jerry and Joe Long | Bio

All About Eve is a wonderful movie. The story of Eve Harrington, a covetous, lying, back stabber, and her ascension to stardom. Yet it was a central insight of Joseph Mankowitz, the writer and director of the film, that Eve wasn't merely aspiring...she was insane.

So too Hillary Clinton. Yet hers was always a tolerable, outcome-driven insanity. A Clintonian insanity, capable of deftly portraying narcissism as public service. Not anymore.

With each new lie -- and more tellingly, each new response to being caught in each new lie -- Hillary has moved beyond Eve and taken up what appears to be permanent residence as Baby Jane Hudson.

For those, like us, who despise the Clintons for no other reason than their actions, it is a perversely enjoyable time. Yes the party is being destroyed. But to see Hillary, as white-faced, bug-eyed and divorced from reality as Bette Davis' 'Baby Jane' at her most unhinged, is almost worth it.

On the off chance that Richard Dawkins is full of shit, what poetic justice it would be for Bill and Hillary to spend their remaining years shambling around the Chappaqua mansion like Baby Jane and Blanche, hurling bitter insults at each other over who cost them their loss of power.

As for the Democrats, if after eight years of being ruled by the truth obliterating psychoses of Bush and Cheney, their only answer is a husband and wife team of psychopaths, they will deserve everything they get.
