I can see Larry Klayman salivating over this piece of crap saying, "YEAH! I BET THIS REALLY HAPPENED! I'LL SHOW THEM! I'LL GET THAT BASTARD CHENEY AND HIS HENCHMEN! GO MO GO!".

From Oxblog:

IMMUTABLE LAWS OF DOWD

1. Ashcroft never deserves credit.

2. Offering constructive solutions to problems, instead of whining endlessly about them, is a sign of weakness.

3. The People Magazine principle: all political phenomena can be explained with reference solely to caricatures of the personalities involved ("Dubya" is stupid; "Poppy" is an aristocrat; Cheney is macho-man; etc.). Any reference to the common good or even to old-fashioned politicking is, like, so passe.

4. It is much better to be cute than coherent.

5. Maureen knows best. Her long years as a columnist (doing basically what your great-aunt Tillie does in the nursing home bull sessions, but getting paid for it) have given her deep insight into foreign relations, politics, welfare, the Constitution, and all other topics. To disagree with Maureen in any way is not only a sign of being wrong, it's a hallmark of pure evil...or at least membership in the NRA, which is pretty much the same thing.

6. It is usually possible and always desirable to name-drop and name-call in the same sentence.

7. The particulars of my consumer-driven, shamefully self-involved life reveal universal truths.

Mo is just so clever, isn't she!...sarcasm

But the president who got elected on the backs of C.E.O.'s and said he wanted to run the country like a C.E.O. was about as convincing a sheriff as Barney Fife.

And Maureen has all the credibility of Susan Smith (only she has no kids to drown, of course).

Comment Removed by me. Too revolting!

While we're on the subject of hot tubs and the like ....

if the quickest way to stupidity is
a straight line,you could hang the laundry on this one.

Baby is entertaining the guests with her rendition of "The Good Ship Lollipop" for the 20th time, showing a delightful display of ruffled undies, while mummny and daddy smile indulgently. The dinner is getting cold but baby is not through, so the guests smile patiently, while baby sings in her little baby voice about, teaching the world to sing in perfect harmony, off key. Then baby doesn't like the food and and tells everyone so while mummy and daddy patiently explain that it is grown up food. Baby says, "I don't like it." and wets her ruffled undies. Baby is not as appalling as she is boring.

My god! I did not think that she could sink so low. I know I shouldn,t be surprised but MAN, how pschotically partisan can a person get?

If she loves socialism so much, I will INSTANTLY go to her house, take 90 % of what she has, give 20 percent to the poor and put the rest in the CENTRAL planning office.

Of course, she means OTHER rich people, you know the kind that actually WORK.

As another poster said, I must pull the rest of my post as it would be offensive... about one hundreth as offensive as that moronic article that she penned.

Please refrain from using the words "Dowd" and Hot-tub" in the same title. Eewwwww!!

I'm still grappling with the obvious question; How can someone with such a huge vocabulary have so little use for it?

Looks like Momo has entered the Russell Baker - Art Buchwald Zone. Years ago you'd open up your paper and find such unfunny little skits and wonder if anyone actually read or enjoyed them.

Buchwald always had some crazy acquaintance with some crazy idea that was supposed to be a devlishly witty commentary about contemporary politics. I don't know much about Baker, except 1) he hosts Masterpiece Theater now and tells us every week how horrible those Victorians really were (according to a script that some overworked intern churns out the night before) and 2) he thought he had "a country in his cellar." Don't ask me what it means. I couldn't figure that one out.

The People Magazine principle: all political phenomena can be explained with reference solely to caricatures of the personalities involved.

Isn't this the old Doonesbury "I can't draw faces, so I'll just draw a feather floating in space" gambit?

Okay, Ms Dowd has just got my vote for Miss Democrat. It was close, but she beat out Hillary, Rosie,Janet, The goofy leftcoast congresswoman (I do not want to remember her name),and Taa Daa--the first runner up, Barney Frank. AKA Solomon Barney Frank.

Mad Mo' has 5% the talent of Mark Steyn. Her fantasy scene here is supremely dumb. Maybe you have to live in NY to get it.

4. It is much better to be cute than coherent

Its been a long time since anyone has called Mo cute. You've just made her day.

Maureen's college days of smoking weed have arrested her developement and mutated her psychological growth to the point that she is embarrassing to read. She is a small minded nasty little liberal valley girl and should be sent to a nice safe institution where she can't hurt herself, or bore the world of Times readers to death.

I don't know why I clicked on this thread, I already know she is a born sorry a$$ silly elete adolescent democratic cheer leader with absolutley no talent.

Comic strips are better written and more coherent,than Dowd's column's. The constant refrain of "baby talk" and "gibberish" is a pathetic cry for fertility,from the "Barrenis" of the NYT.

[Ann Archy]

Does Mo ride the SHORT bus to work??

[dread78645]

"I have nothing against sharing, of course. As long as it's us getting the shares."

I suppose Mo' Dowd thinks that's clever.

Maybe after I drink as much MD 20-20 as she has, I'll think so too. But it'll be awhile.

"Those lily-livered liberals in Congress are outrageous — they're criminalizing greed!" Dick says. "And the spineless Republican fellow travelers on the Hill are almost worse — they'll dry up our donor base and destroy the party before they're through.

Dowd reminds me of those small minded little nit-wits who draw moustaches on pictures of people she doesn't like....and thinks she's being clever.
These nastly mean spirited mischaracterizations only make her look like a vindictive witch.

[RichInOC]

Maureen Dowd won a Pulitzer Prize in 1999. Amazing, isn't it?

[Lazamataz]

She is absolutely unreadable!!!

This is an author?!?!?
