The tortured logic of Mo Dowd
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review ^ | Sunday, February 6, 2005 | Dimitri Vassilaros

Posted on 02/06/2005 11:24:15 AM PST by Willie Green

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 ... ."

You need to read the article again and not fall for the media distortions this time.

**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.***

Personally, I prefer the old firecracker up the b*tt. After the first, the second prisoner will spill his guts.

I can't argue with that, and I have to respect a guy that would throw himself on an ugly bomb for the cause.

The amount of alcohol that it would take to make her appealing to me will also render me comatose for at least two days!

Maureen has a real problem finding a guy that can "Perform".

Actually she used to have a guy... but then he regained his sight.

You're willing to take one for the team, pal, and that makes you okay in my book. Plus I think your analysis of Mo's needs are pretty accurate. I think a vanity post would be well in order if you can carry out your mission.

"But I can tell a woman who is desperate need of vigorous, toe curling, eye rolling, sweaty, panting roll in the hay and Mo is one of them. I feel that as a gentleman, if I can provide such a service, why deny the poor woman. From her columns, she has not had a good schtuping in a while."

"I can't argue with that, and I have to respect a guy that would throw himself on an ugly bomb for the cause."

Classic....ROFLMAO!

Personally, I believe the bravado for such a suicide mission, may be blown all out of proportion.

Yes, but in theory, speed_addiction would go in...alone...and love it...

And then report ALL the nasty details back to us at FR, lol.

You're going to be in hot water with the Coulter crowd for pasting Dowd's head on Ann's body.

I read it. I need to see the story on FOX News. I don't really believe any newspaper. They are all a bunch of liberal liars. But nobody had commented, so I was commenting on what had been written.

Good assessment of what she needs.... not what she wants. She is pretty hot for 50 years on this earth.

You guys are really naughty. I still bet she is a pretty woman and probably a very nice person, but insecure. Someone must have brainwashed her at an early age. Did she go to one of those all women feminist colleges or universities?

"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."

I think I heard on the radio that the woman was not military, but with a hired contractor, FWIW.
