Can He Float Your Boat? (Dowd Alert)

Mo is starting to be funny again at Kerry's expense, 2 weeks in a row, IIRC.

[HennepinPrisoner]

God...first J. Lo and now Kerry?

Has Ben's career been in such a downward spiral that he must desperately latch on to the media darling d'jour?

[RobbyS]

Mo is not funny, period.

[MJY1288]

"We were literally all in the same boat. That is the kind of America I will lead as president - an America where we are all in the same boat."

If somehow this losewr John Kerry wins, I wonder if he will abandone his post after 4 1/2 months like he did in Vietnam??

[The South Texan]

Maureen. Is that really you?

[Bubba_Leroy]

Don't forget the obligatory Catherine Zeta Jones pic:

[Shermy]

Very funny.

She's got a good eye. I don't think anyone has made the ketchup-dress connection, or the nautical themed dais (I looked, not sure I agree, but could be.)

Bush comments funny too. Usually she gets too personal in her attacks on Bush.

[Netizen]

Should be Gilligan takes on the Sherrif. jmo

[GAGOPSWEEPTOVICTORY]

Given that the Kerry convention featured a skipper brave and sure, a first mate who makes others comfortable, a millionaire called "Lovey" by her spouse, two pretty young Kerry castaways and a movie star (the ubiquitously annoying Ben Affleck), I suppose we should be grateful that Camp Kerry didn't introduce the nominee with the "Gilligan's Island" theme song.

Hmmm... Didn't the Minnow sink on Gilligan's Island? Kerry is the captain of a sinking ship.

[Shermy]

Look at her last sentence.

[binger]

"Reporting for duty!"

[mcenedo]

I noticed the collars on Tah-reeeeza'a frocks.

She appeared twice at the convention, once in white, once in red, but both times the collars were the same.

[mcenedo]

thank you

[Choose Ye This Day]

Wow. Who stole Mo's brain?

[Thebaddog]

What brain?

[185JHP]

I suspect but cannot prove that she intuits that W is not a Donahue type male, and that if/when she got a case of yappy mouth with him, she'd get settled down real fast.

[GAGOPSWEEPTOVICTORY]

I love that last sentence.

Buh-bye Thurston Howell Kerry III.

[Bubba_Leroy]

You're welcome.

She's probably a clueless lib like most of the rest of the Hollyweird crowd, but she is a pleasure to look at.

[Choose Ye This Day]

My bad. I should have said, "When did Mo get a brain?" This column is almost coherent.

Mo is not funny, period.

She might not have been very funny to those especially fond of GWB for the last 4 years, but she used to rip Clinton on a regular basis around the time of impeachment in a way that was quite funny to me.
