Maureen Dowd, the very cute but impossibly shrewish columnist for The New York Times, has a problem with sex.
Dowd is in a dither because female military interrogators used their feminine wiles on Muslim detainees at the Guantanamo Bay prison camp. Which is a great plan because terrorists tend to be so uptight about earthly women that they prefer the 72 virgins waiting for them in heaven.
Great plan, unless the suspects are gay.
Or unless our chicks look like Abu Ghraib prison guard Lyndie England.
In a recent column, Dowd wrote that, " ... female interrogators used a toxic combination of sex and religion to try to break Muslim detainees at the U.S. prison camp in Cuba. It's not merely disgusting. It's beyond belief."
Actually, it's like one of those letters that begins, "Dear Playboy, You are not going to believe this, but ... ."

Maureen Dowd is anti-American hippie sewage.
What's disgusting and beyond belief is that hippie trash, Dowd included, never once has addressed what Abu Ghraib is, how it came to be, what it's existence was, what went on in its walls before Hussein was driven out.

Um, am I the only one who is going to reply to this one? I think they went a little far. The menstrual blood thing was too far.
Also, guys, would you have done all those things to an Iraqi female prisoner?
I mean, if a beautiful female officer were sent into the cell to interrogate him, that is one thing. She could use mind games. But all of the explicit sex, I think that is a little far and demeaning to a U.S. military officer of either sex.

--as I wondered a couple of weeks ago, do the ones who had fake menstrual blood used on them get to wear fake red wings when they go home?

I saw her for the first time on Imus a while back. Her official portrait photos look ok but live on TV, the words "very cute" do not apply.

She is not unattractive. Her voice has a soothing quality (as long as you don't actually listen to what she says). She needs a rough around the edges, battle scarred, through caution to the winds alph-type male to give her a good sexual once over. No "metrosexual" could ever give a woman that. A man like me could. Mo, my email is on my profile. If you ever want to see how good it could be. For the good of your readers.

It was not menstrual blood. The terrorist was told that it was.

We men would menstruate all over the Iraqi female prisoner.

Lets face it, those prison guards did the wrong thing. Now, if they had Moses come in and circumcise them with a flint knife, that would be fine with me.

Maureen Dowd's plastic surgeon is a very, very rich man.

I disagree with you, but even if you are correct, this type of behavior is not nearly bad enough to get to a court martial for anybody.
To: Goodgirlinred
I don't care what they do. I generally assume that our soldiers fare far worse in the hands of the crazies and I am not an interrogator. And I also assume that the dope who talked is using fantastical stories to hype his agenda so I don't really believe what was said.
And Dowd was really just talking dirty for the fun of it.
