Is Maureen Dowd turning conservative?
Island Turtle ^ | January 10, 2010 | Corky Boyd

Posted on 01/10/2010 12:59:43 PM PST by Corky Boyd

In her op-ed piece today, entitled Captain Obvious Learns the Limits of Cool, Maureen Down simply eviscerates President Obama for his cluelessness in handling the panty bomber fiasco. Here’s how it starts:

Our president came down from the mountaintop.

He had applied the freshness of his independent thought to the critical matters at hand. He had convened his seminar, reviewed the reviews, analyzed the intelligence every which way, thought anew about everything, and lo and behold, he finally emerged to tell us some stuff we already knew.

We are under attack. There is evil in the world. Yemen is a dangerous place that breeds people who want to kill us... (snip) We still can’t connect the dots, even when the dots are flying at us like 3-D asteroids. The sun rises in the east. Two plus two equals four.

Is this an epiphany on the order of St. Paul on the road to Damascus?.... Or could it be the she started following the candidacy of Republican Scott Brown in Massachusetts’ special election? Perhaps she caught a glimpse of his photo in the centerfold of Cosmo magazine.

Maureen has Hussein “coming down from the Mountain top” and “applying a freshness of INDEPENDENT thought.” No one that stupid could EVER become a conservative.

She ripped Clinton a good one for a while too.

It doesn’t mean a thing.

“Unlike the Republicans, who have yet to take responsibility for a single disastrous thing they did, President Obama said “ultimately the buck stops with me.””

Taht is SOO straw man argument. Bush said the same thing “ultimately the buck stops with me”

The rule is when it is a hot babe (redundant) to post a pic. I wanted to show who she is, as compared to who she was. And for the laughs. Yours was the first. Cheers

She probably just realized she can go out of business or she can cater to a customer base that is actually growing.

That picture reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where the girl Jerry is dating has bad lighting on her and looks horrid.

It means that neither Clinton or Obama are far enough left for her...which tells you all you need to know about MoDo...

"Is Maureen Dowd turning conservative?"

Yes! Quickly, grab Hillary as the Republican candidate for president! ...and Hu Jintao as the candidate for vice president! Then run a bandwagon campaign for "women!"

No-vote!

If you recall she mocked Obamao’s big years way back when.

She seems to have never been really impressed.
