A woman's take on another woman's motives

We know from that adoring cover story in New York magazine a few weeks back that Maureen favors green cowboy boots, a pink Burberry — and lots of lame. That story also confided that Maureen is just such a “fox,” an assertion that was somewhat belied by the photos, both old and current, accompanying the feature. The truth is that she is now a woman in her 50s who looks like an attractive woman in her 50s. Except for her forehead, which is age 27 and so smooth (I wonder, how come?) that it seems she wouldn’t be able to frown even if Gloria Steinem hit her over the head with a frying pan.

But it isn’t only that this 53-year-old mutton is shopping in the wrong boutiques; what’s really striking is that Maureen acts so lamb-like in these interviews, gamboling and simpering, giggling and flirting and telling everyone she is “such a ditz.” To the New York magazine reporter, she admitted that she is always losing cell phones and laptops — just the kind of behavior a mother would find intolerable in any child older than 16.

Attractive?! Maureen Dowd? Maybe to a balding, 300lb, 85 year old man with a peg leg, no teeth, psoriasis, cataracts and bladder issues.

I think she is attractive. Especially at her age.

Ms Meister seems to have gone out of her way NOT to be as catty as those she was berating in the article. I can’t imagine she BELIEVES that Dowd is attractive (even ‘in her own right’).

[dixiechick2000]

There is not enough air-brushing in this world to make that woman attractive.

She’s ugly to the core.

[freekitty]

Maureen is ugly on the inside which makes her ugly on the outside.

[rawhide]

I guess my eyes must be getting bad? I think she is a fairly attractive woman for her age. Now you would be right if you were taking about Helen Thomas?

[rawhide]

I think she looks pretty natural here.

[Richard Kimball]

Well, she's stayed slim, but has had her face adjusted a few times, uses a hair coloring that I've only seen on cartoon characters (I'll bet it's actually got a picture of Wilma Flintstone on the box) and wears makeup thick enough that a lizard would leave tracks in it.

Other than that, she's a babe. Except for her mouth. She could get four tennis balls in that mouth.

Hey I fit your description and I don't even think she is at all attractive...LOL!

[truthguy]

Maureen Dowd is a pig, plain and simple. I don't care what she looks like. She is disgusting.

[JillValentine]

Still lots of makeup. My picture has no makeup.

Anyway, she’s truly ugly and hate-filled on the inside, and that matters a lot more.

[avenir]

Reality, breaking through...

What’s that on her forehead? did she just have a meeting with obama?.

[Jimmy Valentine]

The problem is not with her looks as it is with her voice. If you have ever heard her speak it makes your skin crawl.

She has a nasal, petulant, whine that makes you either want to smack her or just run away.
