I think she's more comfortable when talking about symbolism in art than politics. If I remember right, she was an avid supporter of both Clintons early on, and she had hopes of Hillary being some sort of icon for American women. It didn't take her long to start writing about Hillary's pinched, crabbed, frigid, tightly wound, control freak nature. If I were to label her political views, I'd say she's left-libertarian.

I've always liked Hitchens, even when he was a self-avowed socialist. Iconoclasts are always interesting. <g> I think he's too smart and too much his own guy to let himself be used for anyone else's political purposes. I like how he explains his coming around to being anti-socialist. It was when San Francisco banned smoking in bars and restaurants.
