Say It: New-Age-er (And That Ain't No Lady)

"When I first picked up 'The Hindus' -- a tome seemingly rich with scholarship and, at 780 hardbound pages, as hefty as the legendary demon Kumbhakarna -- I was struck most of all by the author's name on its cover: Wendy Doniger. A mist of apprehension spritzed my Hindu soul. Could this lady (a professor at the University of Chicago) be the same Wendy Doniger who wrote last year -- in one of the more batty commentaries in an election season replete with unhinged scrivenings -- that Sarah Palin's 'greatest hypocrisy is in her pretense that she is a woman'?"

-- Tunku Varadarajan, asking a question that can only be answered with, "Yea, Tunku, that's her!", in The Wall Street Journal.

Damn, She Fooled Me!

"Her greatest hypocrisy is in her pretense that she is a woman."

-- Wendy Doniger - who I'm now not sure is a woman - but, amazingly, is the Mircea Eliade Distinguished Service Professor of the History of Religions at the University of Chicago’s Divinity School (which is a mouthful) on the Washington Post's column called On Faith.

These "progressives" have gone insane,...they're totally mad, I tell you. Cookoo. Out to lunch. Over the bend. Bonkers.

Anyone should be able to see that now.
