I Did Do It (Dowd's Back, and Slamming Clarence Thomas)
New York Times ^ | October 7, 2007 | Maureen Dowd

October 7, 2007 Op-Ed Columnist I Did Do It By MAUREEN DOWD

Washington

O.K., folks, you want the truth?

The whole truth and nothing but?

After all this time, you’re still dying to see the mystery solved?

Fine. I did it. Everything A. said — let’s just use the initial because it’s still hard for me to speak the name of my victim and tormentor — was true.

I did what I had to do and I didn’t care if it ruined A.’s life. I didn’t even care if people thought it was obscene.

I knew I was misusing my position, but I enjoyed having that kind of raw power over A. and saying the things I said. It made me tingle all over. I’m not going to deny that.

Yeah, let's just use the initials.

A.H. fit both of these beasts perfectly

It’s not worth the pictures to read her articles. I liked it better when she was pay per view.

I find it incredible that with blatant attacks like this, decent people have no recourse for slanderous/libelous attacks them?!?

I’m normally not litigious, but I’d make an exception if I were Justice Thomas, or Rush Limbaugh, or Ann Coulter...
and so on, and so on, and so on. :-)

Clarence Thomas possesses more integrity in his little finger than Dowd has in her entire body.

I worried at the time the Thomas interview aired on 60 Minutes that it would bring the left’s slime machine onto a new target. Unfortunately, they didn’t disappoint.

She's writing from the point of view of how SHE thinks Clarence Thomas thinks. Very mean-spirited, unfair column, but it's standard MoDo.

It's no surprise that Michael Douglass dumped her. For anyone... MoDo, you're hatred shows a deep ugliness. In your case, that ugliness goes all the way to the bone.

Yeah Maureen, and Juantia Broadrick was lying when she said clinton raped her. And all those other women who he groped or assaulted, they were lying too.

The difference between the two is that only Hill made such bald accusations against Thomas, but against the impeached former president, there was a phalanx of political operatives arrayed to fight the women - the many women. And there were stories of more from clinton's bodyguards in Arkansas.

But to hack white fiction writers, conservative blacks are uncle toms and inauthentic as blacks and deserving of ridicule. And white politician rapist impeached former presidents - if they support abortion then their sins should be ignored.

Michael Douglas doesn't know just how lucky he is.

The left still considers Justice Thomas just an “uppity n*gger”.

Haven’t heard much from mo lately, I assumed she was sunk in alcoholic depression and unable to write. Maybe the NYT is having her columns ghost-written.
