I haven't seen so many lies, misconstructions, affectations, and guffaw-invoking absurdities in a single editorial in a major American newspaper for a very long time. In fact I thought it wasn't possible to see so much foolishness in such a small space without satire being the ultimate goal. In the L.A. Times, however, Anne Lamott has succeeded in making a bigger fool of herself in one editorial than Maureen Dowd could hope to have achieved in a whole year's worth of blather.
Lamott, an aging novelist that churns out those woefully indulgent tomes that forces readers to endure her darkest feelings and imagines that all of us are on the edge of our seats as she chronicles raising her child, fancies herself an expert on faith and grace. She seems to imagine that she defines it, what ever it is. Of course she was one of the most infested with Bush Derangement Syndrome and was quick to warm to her ersatz religious leader, Barack Hussein Obama. It seems to me that she's spent her life looking for meaning anywhere and she thought she finally found paydirt with The One. She likes to use words like "grace" and "belief" a lot in her writing but like a true newagie, leftist she rarely talks about any actual religion except in the vaguest of terms. It does appear, though, that she had found a new religion in The One.
And now, with her piece in the Times, it seems she is on the verge of losing her religion... again.

"MEN!
If the strap on fits.... ;^)
But, now that BO is in the White House, no one in the mainstream media really cares about them anymore.
The misguided author of this screed is simply being faithful to the tenets of her left-wing fundamentalist calling.
Is she KIDDING
When Ayatollah Khomeini came to power during the Iranian Revolution a leftist female Harvard professor went to Iran to celebrate the glorious revolution first hand.
She was immediately thrown into prison for violating some new religious law. When she eventually returned to the USA, her dreams extinguished, she said she never imagined that they were so anti-female.
And she was a smart Harvard professor.
As SF area writers go... Marky Morford is better looking.
I’d hit it.
Funny how we are the only ones NOT surprised by Obama.
Just read a paragraph of her literary navel fungus.
Need to find my brain floss.
Maybe this was what Don Imus was referring to ??
