Don't Leave Me This Way (MJ)
Anyone old enough to remember the Thelma Houston version of this song?
What about the original by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes?
If you answered no to both, I literally like can't even. You're like Hitler. Disco is the new something. I know, because I have it on vinyl.
Seriously, if you're confused its because we're not here to talk about disco or hipsters, or even my gender. We're here to hate on Hillary and drink beer, and I'm all out of beer.
Actually, I'm not. That would be worse than Hitler. Also not out of Hillary hate.
The folks over at The Hive are dropping new hints because apparently she didn't quite understand the first overture that employed her to STFU and drop dead already. Here's the velvet glove approach.
But we can’t stay friendly to Hillary forever. There’s a fine line—or maybe not even so fine a line—between boosting morale and monopolizing the spotlight. One reason Bill Clinton was able to make a name for himself decades ago was that previous candidates had the grace to get out of the way. Jimmy Carter and Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis weren’t trying to place themselves at center stage during the campaign of 1992. The Clintons, by contrast, kept sticking around. When it comes to power, and a few other things, they can’t control their urges. As a friend of mine recently wrote to me in an e-mail, “They both had to be president?”
After I read the article all I could think about was how sad I'd be if Hillary actually went gently into the good night.
I'd miss her weird, sci-fi-fi, you can't make this shit up, James Bond villain outfits. Her obviously fake, I can't even hug a goddam child without setting off everyone's bullshit detector, attempts at empathy. I'd miss her absolutely believable excuses for not being able to finish a sentence without hacking up a green goblin, losing her voice (feature, not bug) or nearly dropping dead in the sweltering 68 degree heat.
When I read this article, all I could think about was Thelma Houston and Harold Melvin.
Don't leave me Hillary. Not this way.
