Pure Hillary. Curious, saucy, honest, pissed, and with some of the funniest asides I've ever seen. She knows everybody is reading it.
"Many of the organizations wanted the speeches to be private, and I respected that: they were paying for a unique experience. That allowed me to be candid about my impressions of world leaders who might have been offended if they heard. (I'm talking about you, Vladimir.)"

(739 posts)Had not intended to get it, but then I started to see the excellent reviews on DU, etc. And when I saw it was on audio in her voice that did it. I may be listening all night.

(54,770 posts)Democrats who bashed her as if her speeches were a planning session on how they were going to steal money from the poor? Some Democrats actually believed that, even though it was clear she was being paid as a draw for meetings of people who wanted to hear her experienced world view.
She really needed to just say that prefaced by, "Look you ignorant fools . . . . . ."
She should have turned on the stalking Trump too and kicked his ass. I understand why she didn't, but I can wish.
Does sound like a great book, by a great Democrat who was treated poorly (as Trump would say, "by both sides).

(26,624 posts)I'm exactly the same age. I recognize it. We were taught to behave, and we all learned our lessons. Well, no more. Yes, she does need to preface nearly everything with "look you ignorant fools,' and I too wish she had just turned on the asshole and just glared at him. He would have melted like queso.
Welcome to the new normal.
