Desperate Dowd: Savior Obama Losing To Rough Beast Of The Right!
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/19/2010 4:40:26 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Imagine a movie: Maureen Dowd is seen thrashing around on her bed, clearly in the grips of a gruesome nightmare. When she awakes, it is not to relief but to the horrifying discovery that reality is worse than anything her fevered brain had conjured.

That is the sense of hopelessness, desperation and depression in which Dowd drowns in her New York Times column of today. The piece is one long lament, as Dowd decries the Dems' fate. Not only are they on the brink of losing--they are losing to opponents who are not merely wrong but "the worst" and "insane."

Dowd describes the situation in absolutely apocalyptic terms . . .

The schadenfreude is especially choice this year.

Just, wow.. She goes on and on about O'donnel and how she has a weird point of view about the world, a fantasy world like Lord of the Rings or Narnia, the nutty O'Donnel and her strange views.. then Dowd says this about Obama:

He seems weary of crisis management, conveying the attitude of the hero in “The Incredibles” who has to keep saving the world: “Sometimes I just want it to stay saved!”

Who the freak is in a fantasy land now Mo? And besides, as much as I loved the Incredibles ( a fairly conservative film), it is no LOTR..

Projection is what libs do best. They accuse of being the most heinous beasts because that is what they are. It’s what they know so they assume the other side of the aisle is the same.

“. . . there’s an untamed beast rampaging through American politics. But this beast does not seem blessed; rather it has loosed a kind of UGLINESS and wildness in the land.”

I took Dowd off my list of art judges.
