Bering Straight Talk [Mo-Do hating on Sarah]

NY Slimes ^ | Sept. 13, 2008 | Maureen Dowd

[Alouette]

I’ve been in Alaska only a week, but I’m already feeling ever so much smarter about Russia.

I can’t quite see it from my hotel window, but, hey, I know it’s out there somewhere, beyond all the stuffed bears and cruise ships and glaciers and oil derricks.

The proximity of the country from which William Seward bartered to buy Alaska for $7 million — Seward’s icebox — is so illuminating that I suddenly realize that we would commit a grave error by overestimating Russia’s economic strength. After all, it represents only 2.8 percent of the world’s G.D.P., even though its gross domestic product has ballooned from $200 billion in 1999 to $1.7 trillion this year.

But I overanalyze.

I give her article three “meows”.

[Liberty Valance]

HA! Great idea ;o)

[old curmudgeon]

What the lib clucks don't admit to, if they are smart enough to even recognize it.....

The threat of Russia within 64 miles, while it might not give you an invitation to discuss the grain crop with the ambassador of Nothing, located in Nowhere, it does lead one to a lot of serious thought about world threats, how one would react, what effect you might have on the outcome, etc.

Certainly the governor of Alaska would think about tho world threats in more depth than some ambitious small time pol sitting in a Chicago bar BSing with his cronies about how to climb the ladder.

Remeber when the New York Times tried to charge people to read pathetic empty opinions like this ?

"I’ve been in Alaska only a week, but I’m already feeling ever so much smarter about Russia."

Shame on me for hoping she runs into a very hungry bear.

"Windy, wispy egghead." Why, that's the most succinct description I've ever read about Barry! We now officially love Modow - for doing the country such a wonderful public service in figuring out who he is all along. Words do not fail you in getting the hang of The One! Keep up the good work, honey! (laughing)

...we just need the world to know we’re capable of bringing a world of hurt to the world if the world continues to be hell-bent on misbehaving.

Well actually, yes. You can't reason with some types. Some types, you've simply got to thrash.

[Psycho_Bunny]

Were Dowd just a little smarter she’d realize what a retard she it.

[Minn]

You know, her left foot isn’t really all that attractive.

[stefanbatory]

not that I’m complaining or anything...but why do we have all these pictures of Catherine Zeta Jones in this thread?

oh...and 74% of people believe that they have above average intelligence...

[P-Marlowe]

Sarah has single-handedly ushered out the “Sex and the City” era, and made the sexy new model for America a retro one — the glamorous Pioneer Woman, packing a gun, a baby and a Bible.

Thank God that Era is over.

"I’ve been in Alaska only a week, but I’m already feeling ever so much smarter about Russia."

Well, well ... looks like there actually is a shreiking cow in Alaska. How Pravda mistook MoDo for anyone else is a question for the ages, though. Maybe little Timmy of the all-caps, double-barrelled last name just got a little verklempt.

[budwiesest]

"Windy, wispy egghead." Why, that's the most succinct description I've ever read about Barry!

He certainly is 'windy'. Yet, Bill Clinton's speeches were some of the best 'non-habit forming' sleep aids ever invented.

[Paul Heinzman]

Yes, and I think by the time they finally figure out this is backfiring on them, it will be too late. Minnesota is now in play after having Obama leading by 13%.

[Twinkie]

I think Governor Palin also resembles Mariska Hargitay (Jayne Mansfield’s daughter I think she is, only Palin is actually prettier). The hardcore, abortion on demand, snobby, elitist, feminist women have generally made themselves ugly from the inside out. . mannish sounding voices, flaunting their lesbian lifestyles, mannish looking clothes, mouths drawn into thin angry lines, wrinkles from frowning all the time, butch hairdos, angry attitudes . . . YUK! . . I can’t go on . . . MoDo can’t find a man who is “sensitive” enough for her . . .

[taildragger]

That is one smokin’ picture there. Whew.

Ya but does she clean windows....

[doug from upland]

This YouTube that mocks Matt Damon has a very enjoyable slapdown of Maureen at the end. Enjoy - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o35syqUC9qc

[redhead]

"Think Mo-Do could find a husband in Alaska... ?"

Sure! All she has to do is raise her expectations a little and act like a lady. (Oh, sorry. I just realized we're talking about MODO here...)

[DTogo]

I just love these CZJ threads!!
