There was no “kooky birther campaign”. Hillary owns it.

If there ever was a walking human garbage dump, it is Maureen Dowd (as in dowdy old bitch).

Life had passed her by because she’s such a hag but she still has a keyboard and the NY Times for her sad, sad commentaries that most people ignore or never heard of, or even care to hear of.

There once was a Star Trek episode entitled “Who Mourns for Adonis”? Well, sometime in the future there will be a column entitled “Who Mourns for Dowd?” I won’t be reading it. Why waste time on a wasted life?

“Trump’s own behavior is casting serious doubt on whether he’s qualified to be president.”

This mantra was started with GOP Trump competitors since day one. Cruz took it to a extreme level. I knew the Trump haters would repeated it over and over. Just like those Trump protesters that yelled "F**K Trump! F**K Trump!" over and over. When you pin them down to get what they are referring to, their argument dissolves like ink shot out by the same squids trying to hide behind their lies. It is getting tiresome scraping the same dog poo off the bottom of my shoes every day.

...like suggesting that President Obama is tolerant of ISIS attacks, an echo of the kooky birther campaign that he led, suggesting that Obama wasn’t qualified to be president

Maureen thinking Obama is competent is more telling about herself than the entire rest of her article. Being a delusional democrat and writing for a garbage pail lining newspaper is concern No. 1. Does Maureen have Obama's school transcripts that prove him a genius (or any other proof he is who he tells us he is)? Didn't think so. Supporting an anti-American president is a hard and thankless job for Maureen.

When someone feels their boat has sailed and needs to regain the glamor of their former self, they write the words they think the in-crowd wants. Her career as a writer has descended into the role of a panderer as her image is losing its appeal.

I can’t help but think that Maureen got a signal from the publisher. Hey, our NYT ship is sinking. Send out a distress signal.

They are desperate. So is the Wall Street Journal, going bonkers at attacking Trump relentlessly.

It’s not gonna work. And Maureen knows it.

All of these people who write about Donald Trump get paid by somebody else. Look at who they are receiving their income from and then try to understand that perhaps they are influenced to write the position of the paper that is paying them. Maureen Dowd is paid by the New York Times. Enough said

The article is too squirrelly to comment on. Covers everyone of the formulaic liberal talking points.

Modius operandi: Just make an assertion, any assertion you can grab out of thin air.

Example: Trump stated that some illegal Mexicans commit violent crimes.

Liberal talking point: Trump says that all Mexicans are criminals.

Ban postings from the NYTimes. No lies are good lies.

re: “the article is too squirrelly”

Yes but what can we expect when Mo has been hitting the whiskey bottle so hard? In recent months she has had dust-ups with Monica Lewinsky and OD-ed on legal marijuana for the sake of a story. Her mind is even more deranged than usual...... just show her Catherine Zeta Jones and she will go right over the edge.

I think the liberal media is circling Trump in a vulture formation in hopes that people will start believing their (organized) negative stories.

The obvious fact that they all are coordinated choreographed gives away their intention.

The Convention can set the tone ,plus or minus, for the rest of this summer, and likely for the remainder of the race

Which is why corporations are withdrawing their financial support, why Ryan is stirring up delegate treachery under his so-called "conscience clause" (as if making America great again was unconscionable - which, I suppose, to Ryan, it is), why I suspect the Cleveland PD will ensure inadequate security (who is the retard who decided to go to f***ing CLEVELAND?), etc. etc.

Like, I knew conventions had become fake since 1968, I knew they were TV productions and not business meetings anymore - but I hadn't yet considered how easy-peasy it would be for the "donors", the GOPe, the media and the local government (run, of course, by the Dems) to conspire to ruin the images coming out of a Trump convention.

Yes, Trump's people can (probably) control the floor, but to put on the kind of show you are talking about, to "turn things around", requires the willing cooperation of people who are not willing and who are not going to cooperate.

I haven't really sorted out what to do, because the contrived disaster which is emerging is tightly integrated with the Hillary campaign - but perhaps Trump should cancel the Cleveland event, which CANNOT and WILL NOT work to his advantage, and come up with something else.

It's clear that THEY are not going to accept what Trump did to them, and the convention is a very public forum where THEY will control the images. Since images are all it is (as you correctly point out in your post about Trumo's acceptance speech), it's a serious danger zone.
