PRESIDENT OBAMA proved himself a great segue artist Friday, as he smoothly glided from his previously unassailable position on the matter of surveillance to his new unassailable position on the matter of surveillance.
There is no moral high ground that he does not seek to occupy. As with drones and gay marriage, he seems peeved that we were insufficiently patient with his own private study of the matter. Why wont the country agree to entrust itself to his fine mind?
Yet while Barry is in the thick of it, the air is thick with Hillary. From the sidelines, she is soaking up a disproportionate amount of attention and energy, as though she were already Madam President.

The brazen incredulity in which this obsequious bootlicker brays about her hero, Zero, is cognitive surrealism at its most dissonant.
I’d say MoDo is being ironic, even sarcastic there. Eh?
I read the the first two paragraphs several times and I get no sense of sarcasm or irony in her comments. But it might very well be but seems decidedly un-Dowdy of her.
TTIWWP
In truth, I think she dislikes O but had to be supportive of the team. Until now. In the ascendancy of HTC.
HRC NOT HTC. Danged autocorrect.
It will be interesting to watch.
Most of remember when Hillary! was a “lock” back in Jan 08.
Then some guy named Baraq Hussein from Kenya came in and stole the kishka.
Once again 2016 looks predictable, but who knows....
So should we call her “Dear Leaderette?
You may be right about an upset of HRC. Hope so. But BO fatigue never sets in w the press, so she’ll be their fave.
And I'm invoking the MoDo Rules...
I thought so too until I read the entire article. She is convinced of Obama’s pure as the driven snow imagery. He may be nieve, by her standards, but he can be trusted to be a paragon of virtue. With addle brained True Believers like her polluting the media, tyrants with gleaming smiles will always be in control.
I respect the rules.
Nice choice of pics - beat me by almost a minute.
I agree.
This is a very cleverly worded epistle - she takes some effective shots but does it from cover so as not to get the Obama and Hillary True Believers too upset.
Mo has recently shown signs of falling off the Obama turnip wagon.
The left-handed comments she makes here about Obama are something we would not have seen from her during the height of the Obama Love-In.
And her references to the Gennifer Flowers scandal and the Clintons being "ends-justify-the-means types with flexible boundaries about right and wrong" are not calculated to endear her to Hillary supporters.
I'd say she took a few carefully worded swipes at both Obama and Hillary, but was cautious not to venture too far off the plantation lest she find the gates hard to open on her return.
I respect the rules.Mo "The Plagiarist" Dowd today:
When JESUS comes back and “IT IS FINISHED”... maureen will be on the down elevator without a doubt.
Many thanks. And my favorite role for her as well!
Sort of looks like she’s morphing into Arianna Huffington...
