Shorter Verbatim Camille Paglia: "Pro-life women will save feminism by expanding it, particularly into the more traditional Third World." Ah, yes, center-right "contrarianism" defined: you expand a progressive coalition by simply defining "not-x" as "x." The value of this type of expansion is not explained.

Or try this one: "For example, I had thought for many months that the flap over Obama's birth certificate was a tempest in a teapot. But simple questions about the certificate were never resolved to my satisfaction."

Or...well, look, pretty much every sentence she's ever written for Salon could be a "verbatim." Why they think that this will attract readers -- let alone subscribers -- in 2008 remains inexplicable.
