Dowd goes down a laundry list of all the things she and Palin share in common. Here's one glaring difference:

And...

Lest we forget...

...Rules!

I only clicked on the thread for the pics.

I approached reading her book with trepidation, worried I might learn that I am not a real American, dang it, just another dreaded, jaded “enlightened elite.”

Yup. Yup, that's about right, lady.

Sarah Palin is everything that Maureen Dowd wishes she was and is not.

[Pessimist]

What’s interesting here really is the relative witholding of venom.

[Red Badger]

...a Palin coinage, living “bass-ackwards"

To the lovely, but ill educated Ms. Dowd: If you were part of the real world, you would know that the "coinage" has been around for decades. But then, you never speak to "real people".................

Palin/Zeta-Jones 2012.

And stop those stupid questions about Catherine Zeta-Jones' Welsh birth preventing her from being VP. She was born in Hawaii and I have the birth certificate to prove it. No, you can't see it.

[Dansong]

My goodness, do I sense a degree of respect from Dowd?

[supremedoctrine]

Totally self-defeating list of side by side comparisons.
Which is what made it worth reading.
That, and the fact that it was mercifully short.

I don’t care what Mo Dowdy has to say. I don’t read the fecal matter she spews into print. She is the equivalent of a politician. That is to say, an unprincipled whore.

[reagan_fanatic]

You can almost feel the purple headed monster of jealousy’s hot breath searing the back of Maureen Dowd’s neck.

Don’t ya just love it?

I approached reading her book with trepidation, worried I might learn that I am not a real American, dang it, just another dreaded, jaded “enlightened elite.”

"UNenlightened elite" is more like it...

I'd bet MoDo approached Going Rogue with trepidation because she was afraid she wouldn't understand the words.

ALL of your pictures prove that God loves men and wants to see them happy.

What Dowd forget to say was that Sarah stayed right, and Maureen veered left. Sarah also managed to snag and KEEP the man she loved.

Better luck next time, Maureen.

[Raycpa]

Wow, its almost void of any negativity.

[sausageseller]

worried I might learn that I am not a real American, dang it, just another dreaded, jaded “enlightened elite.”

You chose the path of evil Ms. Dowd.

[DogBarkTree]

I had to read the article twice because I thought I missed the part of Dowd ripping Sarah to shreds. What gives?

[Williams]

Dowd read Palin’s book and wrote a column about - herself.

Isn’t that more than a bit strange?

That and the fact she empathized and agreed with Plain. Could there be an identification with Palin by women of all political leanings in the offing?

[DouglasKC]

It seems like Dowd was trying awful hard to be critical but couldn’t find a whole lot to be critical of.

[Paladin2]

".......just another dreaded, jaded “enlightened elite.” "

Sounds close to the mark, just a little airbrushed.

[SparkyBass]

Sarah's book vs. Maureen's...

[rintense]

Wow, the article is either a subtle realization that she’s had Palin all wrong, or a very weak attempt at literary irony.
