Maureen Dowd Has Outdone Herself ("Puerile Trash... Has She No Friends?")
DavidLimbaugh.com ^ | 12/12/04 | David Limbaugh

Posted on 12/13/2004 1:39:03 PM PST by KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle

No amount of outside criticism could damage Maureen Dowd like this childish piece of profound embarrassment.

There is just nothing I can add to this, other than my expression of amazement. No matter the level of puerile trash I've seen from her before, this one descends to new depths. Has she no friends at the Times who could have charitably rejected this piece?

When I first saw dowdy's column, I wondered if it was written in maureen dowd ebonics...it is totally unintelligible.

while our spooks are warning

For any in the know, does this term have a military meaning outside of the racist one.

Well that pic does help after reading her tripe....

She wants to be considered one of the "intellegensia of the new left? Man Mo need to step away from the Crack pipe... that cannot even be considered good parody.

You are all missing the point.This is funny funny stuff to the majority of the elites out there, I'm sure there were many Time's papers that had coffee spewn all over them the morning of her column. We are the one's who "don't get it". Were all unsophisticated Rubes.

"If I were her editor, I wouldn't pay her for that column"

But that's the point: editors at the NY Slimes do pay for that garbage.

The Times' stable of columnists includes three of the worst in the country: Paul Krugman, Bob Herbert, and Dowd. That's like a baseball team with Marv Throneberry, Bob Uecker, and Pumpsie Green in the starting lineup.

I understand that, but it makes no sense.

There are leftists lined up around the block salivating for the opportunity to write an op/ed column for the NYT, and they are willing to take only a fraction of her salary.

Why the NYT doesn't replace her with someone smarter, funnier and cheaper is beyond me.

Is Dowd the bastard love child of American born Nazi Propagandists Lord Haw Haw (William Joyce) and Axis Sally (Mildred Gillars)?

What a dope she is. Goebbels would be such a proud godparent.

The new words don't fit the meter or even rhyme.

How many sheets to the wind was she when she composed this dreck? You'd think that she'd be too stewed to operate a keyboard.

On what basis did this woman get her job? It can't be talent..... Is she a relative of some power broker?

Gods, even though I hate it, the NYT does have some intelligent people on staff......But how did this pathetic looney get there?

Her columns were much wittier as recently as six or seven years ago.

She's always been a silly leftist, but she's just been recycling the same old material for so long it's worn thin.

Sorkin dumped Dowd. They are no longer together.

As an earlier poster said, it's because management thinks she IS smart and funny, which tells you something about the quality of the NYT management.

Yes, I must admit. I did Helen Thomas.

That's so not right!

Sorkin dumped Dowd. He's 43. She's 52. He wanted someone younger.

"Spooks" is slang for spies, CIA-type people.

Yikes, was she a stripper in her younger years; because she obviously doesn't embarrass easily! A poem from the Trash Heap of Histoir.

Looking on the bright side; there is nobody with a hint of intelligence or relevancy that reads this crap. She is totally around the bend, and needs serious help. Just pathetic.
