Maureen Dowd Op-Ed

The Battered New York Times Originally uploaded by Madison Guy New York Times Op-Ed Columnist Maureen Dowd So The Old Grey Lady Op-Ed column has good things to say about Caroline Kennedy in her quest to become appointed as the next Senator from the great State of New York (the paper, certainly not Maureen Dowd when referring to The Old Grey Lady). What Are The Qualifications of Caroline Kennedy Most Impressive To Dowd ? "So I found it bizarre that when Caroline offered to use her magic...Read Full Story

In a column in today's New York Times , Maureen Dowd attempts to portray what appears to be a potentially very offensive book about the first lady, Laura Bush, as just another book that anyone might read. With utter unctuousness Ms. Dowd says, "It’s the sort of novel Laura Bush might curl up with in the White House solarium if it were not about Laura Bush. It would be interesting to hear how that lover of fiction feels about being the subject of fiction." This is an incredible, unsupported...Read Full Story

When Maureen Dowd is good she is very, very good. But when Maureen Dowd is bad she's rotten. Whether it's shellacking Hillary Clinton or ridiculing various limp-wristed Liberal girly men , she's not happy unless she's snarky.

She's also insanely hard on women in powerful positions to the point that if she were a man she'd most undoubtedly would be a misogynist. But since she's a...Read Full Story

Gee, even when Maureen Dowd is "sweet" on Caroline, she still gets in a few cutting remarks against Caroline Kennedy's speech patterns.  Most of us have caught ourselves doing something to that effect when nervous, or especially when caught off guard.  Yet, that issue with Kennedy isn't what bothers voters.

By MAUREEN DOWD WASHINGTON, D.C. - While Obama was spending three hours watching “The Dark Knight” five time zones away, and going to a fund-raiser featuring “Aloha attire” and Hawaiian pupus, Hillary was busy planning her convention. You can almost hear her mind whirring: She’s amazed at how easy it was to snatch Denver away from the Obama saps. Like taking candy from a baby, except Beanpole Guy doesn’t eat candy. In just a couple of weeks, Bill and Hill were able to drag No Drama Obama into...Read Full Story

In today's New York Times, Maureen Dowd writes perhaps the most offensive editorial I've read in a long time; and I wade my way through the Washington Post's editorial page every so often. My favorite part: "As de facto veep for Bill, she had enough leverage over him, due to his shenanigans, to co-opt huge chunks of policy and personnel decisions. But in a return engagement with Obama at the top, could she really wake up every day in the back seat and wish him well, or would she just be...Read Full Story
