but the pathological need to be seen surrounded by military officers reveals either an unremittingly hawkish worldview or a grim, deep-seated cynicism and insecurity.
Natalie Portman: She is potentially one of the worst actresses working in Hollywood today. Moreover, I have always felt that her acting was bad in a way that conveys blank, wretched stupidity. (Kind of like a reverse Clive Owen, whose genius appears to penetrate his acting, giving his delivery the thrust of a healthy credibility to the point that even his skin exudes intelligence.) Yet her endorsement of Clinton reveals such a profound absence of thought, that she actually becomes the ideal empty vessel with which to communicate the true message of the Clinton campaign:
A lot of the stuff people say about her, I hear it and my stomach falls because it's so sexist. You ask people why they don't like her and it's because her husband cheated on her! That was obviously not her choice. She's so much more polished and experienced than anyone else. Last night, a friend, a social worker in L.A. who works with underprivileged kids, was saying how these girls who have never been interested in politics before are so excited that a woman might be president. I mean, look how many women are in government...Hillary's one of, what, [a handful of] female senators?Okay, I've tried, but haven't been able to find one substantive political argument for supporting Clinton there. Score one for the "Solutions" candidate!
