Daily Howler logo Y ES, SHE CAN! Maureen Dowd keeps calling Obama namesand stays far away from McCain: // link // print // previous // next // AMAZINGLY BAD: Since the New York Times is our most famous paper, this piece today about Social Security is just amazingly bad. The technical blundering starts right away. This is ridiculous work: ROHTER (8/14/08): Ignoring the warnings that Social ...
Do As I Say, Not As I Do
agonist.org 8/18/2008 — I'm not one to quote Maureen Dowd, but when she nails it, she nails it:
[W]ith this country’s military and moral force so depleted, the Bushies can hardly tell Russia to stop doing what they themselves did in Iraq: unilaterally invade a country ...
The Hillary-McCain conspiracy. —
Althouse
"Oh, John, you know I love you and I’m happy to help... The themes you took from me are working great — painting Obama as an elitist and out-of-touch celebrity, when we’re rich celebrities, too. Turning his big rallies and pretty words into character flaws, charging him with playing the race card — that one always cracks me up. And accusing the media, especially NBC, of playing favorites. ...

Stop The ACLU
Technically, she is not a MILF, but, I wouldn't mind if she was my sugar momma! Maureen continues her assault on the Messiah in today's column, Two Against One, and shows a sense of actual humor, something most progressives are lacking. Crying, fainting, smearing feces on themselves (which, I guess ...

Technically, she is not a MILF, but, I wouldn’t mind if she was my sugar momma! Maureen continues her assault on the Messiah in today’s column, Two Against One , and shows a sense of actual humor, something most progressives are lacking. Crying, fainting, smearing feces on themselves (which, I guess is humorous, if disgusting,) screaming in rage, yes. Humor, no. Maybe she is ...

She Fills Empty Space —
Whiskey Fire
by Molly Ivors
I dunno what happened while I was away, but Maureen Dowd must be on some new and very exciting medications.
(Note the gratuitous slap at Jesse Jackson! Deft! That's why she's a pro, that cutting-edge humor from 1988!)
Pathetic —
Rising Hegemon
When will Maureen Dowd be hired by a paper more worthy of her talents? Like Teen Beat ?

From my inbox:
Finally saw [you and Jason Cherniak on the Michael Coren Show]. What an obtuse little plug of a man -- but I genuinely
believe that [JC] hadn't heard of pretty near everything he expressed surprise and dismay about; Maureen Dowd et. al.
The really infuriating thing about Cherniak is that - like too many people I meet these days - he's nowhere near as
smart as he ...

No More Mister Nice Blog
OBAMA, CLINTON AGREE TO SUPPLY MAUREEN DOWD WITH SEVERAL MONTHS' WORTH OF MATERIAL Part of me is pleased that the Clinton and Obama team proved the naysayers wrong and reached an understanding, well in advance of the convention, that Hillary's name will be placed in nomination. It's also nice that Clinton associates are telling The New York Times that Hillary, as a superdelegate, will vote ...
I wanna be Maureen Dowd. Sometimes. —
AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth
Her latest column really is a must-read. Yeah, she's bitchy sometimes (aren't we all?), but sometimes her inner rhymes-with-witch is just what's needed. I think this column is one of those times . Obama also allowed Hillary supporters to insert an absurd statement into the platform suggesting that media sexism spurred her loss and that “demeaning portrayals of women ... dampen the dreams of ...

Is anybody going to the convention?
McCain floats the idea of a pro-choice running mate -- trial balloon to gauge right reax?
Maureen Dowd laces into the Clintons, for old times’ sake.
Bob Casey Jr. will address the Dem convention on the same night as Hillary Clinton.
