On the whole, not necessarily worth reading, but it can't be good for Obama when Maureen Dowd is making fun of him...

He claimed he got caught up in the moment of a Fourth of July picnic in Butte, Mont., and a birthday celebration for Malia.

He actually dragged his daughter out to Montana from Chicago in order to celebrate her birthday as a campaign stunt? What a fun dad - "Bring your daughter to work day, and use her as a pawn for your personal election campaign".

No wonder Michelle can't remember being proud of her country; look at the company she keeps.

"...He’s flexible and a bit of a situationalist..."

A "bit," Maureen? The guy is gumby. His entire philosophy is "situationalist." Get real.

The ice-cream question, as silly as it might be, came up here a month ago, and picture after picture came in of Obama apparently "choking" down ice-cream in various settings, which proved that he's even willing to eat food he hates in order to appear more "normal" to mom-n-pop average American. The man is a manufactured icon, and the vapid of mind slurp it up like kittens to a warm bowl of milk.

Barack Obama may make it to the Rose Garden, but he’ll still be an orchid. For all his attempts to act like a sturdy American perennial, he’s a genuine hothouse flower, and everything he is and does is cultivated...

Maureen Dowd is really spreading the Osmunda in this one. Hmmm, maybe she'll get the Endicott treatment from Obama...

I had the same reaction as I usually do after reading a Dowd columns: why did I read this column about absolutely nothing?

If MoDo had wrote that Barry’s mother in old photo’s reminded her of Mother Teresa and that Barry’s father reminded her of Confucius so therefore Barry is The Messiah, it would still be an article about nothing.

I wonder if this is how they eat hot dogs in France?

Maybe we can get Jean Francois Kerry to fill us in?

What an absolute wuss.

It almost looks as if he's afraid it will bit him back.

I don't EVER remember seeing anyone eat a dog like this or maybe its just that when growing up, his mom (on food stamps dontcha know) could not afford to buy meat including hot dogs so he never learned how to eat them???

Ridicule is the most devastating form of political attack.

And to think that Pulitzer winning Maureen is about the best the left has to offer as a columnist. Good night, stack her aimless drivel up against Krauthammer, Steyn, Hewitt, Rush or David Limbaugh, or even Colter and it's no contest.

Isn’t she the one who mentioned his ears last year and made him upset?

Malia said she enjoyed decorating

I'll bet her bedroom in her family's million dollar mansion is a beauty to behold.
