There is a Reason

the Beltway media are often called--at least by yours truly--Beltway whores. Case in point is the queen of the Georgetown cocktail circuit, Sally Quinn, who could be termed a slut because the only reason anybody has ever heard of her is she fucked her boss, Ben Bradlee, and married him.

A real feminist heroine, that woman.

When she tried to strike out on her own away from the Washington Post in the early 1970s, she struck out. CBS, in its infinite stupidity to try and compete with NBC's Today Show and Barbara Walters, hired Quinn to co-host its morning program with the late Hughes Rudd. The result was a disaster, a complete and total disaster. Quinn wrote a book about the experience, We're Going to Make You a Star, which was actually funny and well-written. After the television flop, she went back to the Post, married editor Ben Bradlee, and busied herself with her hostessing skills.

Because she is jealous of the Clintons, she is tickled to death Hillary is all but out of the Democratic contest for president. She gives her worthless two cents' worth what Hillary should do now:

"And I think that what she needs to do now -- and I know this sounds really strange, but -- if I were Hillary Clinton, I would go off to a retreat somewhere. ... A silent retreat. And I would stay there, I would take a sabbatical and stay there for three months, and not talk, and meditate, and think, and try to figure out who I really was and what I really wanted. I'm serious.

"I think that this is a tortured person who has run and run and run and gone for it and gone for it, and it's power, and it's this and it's that, 'I've got to be there.' There's never a moment where you see her relaxing, where you see her really stopping to smell the roses, stopping to say, 'Who am I and what is it that I want?'

"Maybe what she really needs is a wonderful, loving relationship with somebody instead of just going after power and being this ambitious person that I think she thinks she oughta be."

Maybe YOU should get lost, you stupid slut.

Her bitter bile is rooted in the simple fact Hillary Clinton, new to Washington in 1993, refused kiss Quinn's ass:

Actually, it could be said that Sally Quinn has been floundering around for the last couple of decades, when she failed first as a journalist, then as a novelist, before emerging as a hostess in a Washington society that even she admits is in its death throes. Which brings us to a central question: Who appointed Quinn as the mouthpiece for the permanent Washington establishment, if there is such an animal? A peek into Quinn's motives reveals a hidden political agenda and the venom of a hostess scorned, and ultimately, an aging semi-journalist propped up by a cadre of media buddies, carping at the Clintons because they wouldn't kiss her ring.

And:

According to society sources, Sally invited Hillary to a luncheon when the Clintons came to town in 1993. Sally stocked her guest list with her best buddies and prepared to usher the first lady into the capital's social whirl. Apparently, Hillary didn't accept. Miffed, Sally wrote a catty piece in the Post about Mrs. Clinton. Hillary made sure that Quinn rarely made it into the White House dinners or social events.

In return, Sally started talking trash about Hillary to her buddies, and her animus became a staple of the social scene. "There's just something about her that pisses people off," Quinn is quoted as saying in a New Yorker article about Hillary.

The link is now dead, but here is an article mentioning the Salon piece.


Nothing but a stinking, envious failure. But she is loved by the Beltway mob, and, as trivial as it is in the grand scheme of world events, THIS is why the media ganged up on the Clintons, printed lies about them and the bogus "scandals," and cheered on the impeachment of Bill Clinton. THIS, not sexism, is why the media went after Hillary Clinton in her campaign for president. This is also why they went after Al Gore when he ran for president in 2000, since he was Bill Clinton's VP. The media couldn't run Bill Clinton out of town, so "victories" over Al Gore and Hillary Clinton can be seen as payback for the Clintons not kissing Sally Quinn's slutty ass.

This moron gave her worthless two cents' worth here. She can't resist mentioning and trashing the Clintons in talking about Jeremiah Wright. What a sickening hypocrite she is talking about Monica Lewinsky when she fucked her own boss and married him, and now this hypocrite paints herself as some kind of expert on religion:




She's had PILES of cosmetic surgery, for she is at least 67 years old. She's probably gearing up to grab the next sugar daddy who comes along after 87-year-old Ben calls it quits and goes to that newsroom in the sky. It's embarrassing to see a woman so worried about aging. Yeah, I sound like a sexist, but I don't give a shit when it comes to people like her.
