MoDo desperately needs a Briggs and Stratton-driven, self-operated marital aid.

re. American women (in general and liberal women in particular):

There is a reason a lot of American men are receptive to non-American women (Asian women in particular). We seek women with traditional family values that put family & kids above career and that are sweet and kind types that make good wives and moms.

The Hillery wannabees are a turnoff.

I dated American women but wisely married a young Chinese women from a small farming village in China.

Best decision I ever made.

"flame-haired bombshell"

Sadly, she IS just a shell of a person that goes off on most everything that is right and decent.

Merry Christmas, Maureen. Jesus loves you, too.

Dowd has conjured a public image that blends Lauren Bacall and Dorothy Parker>>

Wrongo. Dowd has conjured a public image that blends the Wicked Witch of the West with Bozo the Clown.

She's like Polly Toynbee: she doesn't write so much as menstruates through her pen.

I was able to spend a few weeks in NYC and never heard anyone with a voice like MoDo. where is she from, what a grating sound.

[Recon Dad]

Watching Maureen is like watching Pro Wrestling, it's all a show. It's the American way, get a PR firm and sell, sell, sell. When that wears out find a new schtick.

MoDO has not learned the basic fact of nature: Yin ( feminine force of nature ) and Yang ( masculine force
of nature) are both required to create and maintain a
balanced existence. How can someone so bright be so dumb?

This woman, I feel sorry for her. Truly tainted.

She is less influential than the Sunday Morning MSM "news analysis" shows. And those only play to a limited audience of dimwits and slave-boys.

[Alia]

Article: In a passage on female employees who called Enron on its ethical lapses, for instance, she offers this zippy but content-free observation: "Once women were pleased when men whistled at them. Now men are displeased when women blow whistles on them." Call it the Dowd flip, a sassy reversal that evaporates on close contemplation.

lol!

… as a flame-haired bombshell in a clingy crimson dress…

Having no idea of what Maureen Dowd looks like, I did a web image search. She is supposed to be hot, a “bombshell”?
I guess as a mediocre writer, she needs all the publicity she can get.

If Mz MODO was sexy, she'd be selling someting on MSM. She couldn't sell steak to blind dogs.

[Clioman]

Poor MoDo...she's painted herself into a corner, and the only option she has left is to whine about the paint color she choose.

[Al Gator]

And I still say:

Only thing ole MoDowdy needs is a good, old fashioned, over the knee spanking. Would set her straight, yessiree.

...but Dowd has conjured a public image that blends Lauren Bacall and Dorothy Parker....

More like a mix of the Wicked witches of East and West.

But, I only came by for the Zeta Jones pic.
