It's Not About You, Honey

"There was something disquieting about this televised prodding of an almost entirely cerebral woman {Hillary Clinton} by an emissary of the “Girlfriend” posse. There were shades of voyeurism, of a perverse kind of exoticism akin to the fascination with which 19th-century European crowds once pressed around the cage of the Hottentot Venus, trying to figure out if she was fully human."
