Hasn't she won a Pulitzer? No one would ever give me an award for my writing, but if they ever tried to give me one of those things, I would sue them for libel.

Between MoDo and Duranty, winning the Pulitzer must be as insulting as winning the Nobel Peace Prize.

It's particularly hilarious to see run-of-the-mill Boomer narcissists like Modo try to explain that uber-Boomer-narcissist Clinton by invoking the Evil God Testosterone. What the hell are they going to do for copy when Hillary becomes President?

People like Dowd have a hard time understanding a Bush, and make excuses for a Clinton, because they assume that everyone is like themselves-- obsessed with and solely motivated by sex. It's part of their perpetual adolescence.

It seems a bit obvious that she wishes she had been with Clinton in the Oval Office. And she might even think that her presence there would have dissuaded President Bush from his decision on Iraq. A pathetic woman all the way around.

Orrin, it's time to admit it. You're publishing those satirical pieces under Ms Dowd's name.

She aims to shock.

And so the effect is all; the so-called cause can be manipulated, distorted, created. The wilder the conceit, the more extravagant the metaphor, the better the effect.

But her conceits lack all judgment, all sorely weakened by her palplable hatred. So that even as she may be counted, perhaps as one of the brighter, more articulate, members of the species, alas, her utter burgeoning stupidity, once merely unbecoming, has become commonplace.

Yawn.

(Though one wonders if, still, there be strength in numbers.)

I used to think Molly Ivins was the dumbest of all the (reasonably) famous pundits.. I'm starting to think it's MoDo.

(although Molly is pretty, uh, thick.)

I stopped reading Cathy also

Well, she said a mouthful this time.
