Gloria Steinem isn’t the only feminist on the block this election season. Germaine Greer, an Australian writer who was one of the 20th century’s leading voices on feminism, weighed in on Hillary Clinton’s candidacy with Australia’s Nine Network last night.

Yahoo! news reports:

“I don’t like Hillary because she’s so bossy and cold and manipulative and stuff, and I don’t think having her in power is going to make any difference, basically, because she will have the same set of advisers…

“I can’t see that Hillary would appeal to feminists because, why is she there? She is there because she is Bill’s wife, and it’s a bit useless to pretend, ‘Oh, it’s because of her wonderful job as a senator.’”

On the other hand, Greer had nothing but kind words for Bill: “Everybody loves Bill. Bill is adorable and Bill is always flattering me and inviting me to stuff in Britain and we’re buddy-buddy, and I like him.”

In Clinton’s defense, it should be noted that Greer is notorious for untimely insults. Immediately following “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin’s death in 2006, she said, “The animal world has finally taken its revenge on Irwin.” In 2007, on the tenth anniversary of Princess Diana’s death, she called the late Princess Diana a ”devious moron”, a “desperate woman seeking applause”, “disturbingly neurotic” and “guileless… She dressed to the same demotic standard of elegance as TV anchorwomen do.”

It’s a fairly safe bet that neither Clinton nor Obama are in any hurry to earn Greer’s endorsement.
