1. She hates him for not being a buffoon. Damn selfish bastard.

I would suggest he do a top ten on Letterman re the best ways to make fun of Barack Obama.

[BeyondGeography]

4. She's trying to make it into a political problem

Lame, even for MoDud.

[Skittles]

5. what do you mean, even for MoDud

she has always been lame, even at her best. She only ever skewered GWB when it became the fad thing to do. :thumbsdown:

6. Thanks for repeating my point

:thumbsup:

7. I can't stand her

I detest it when DUers post her drivel and say it's good. You are correct - she stinks.

2. eekkk - I'm a buffoon. Dupe

[NattPang]

3. I don't need to be entertained by my President,

I've got Paris Hilton, the Corporate media,
and reality television shows for that.

Dowd could maybe do a funny story about
McCain's rape joke.

8. Go fuck yourself, Maureen.

WTF is that idiot still doing writing for the NY Times? What, they couldn't find a 7th grade yearbook editor to take her place?

9. I think it's pretty funny

Barack needs to lighten up a little. He doesn't have to be a buffoon, but that New Yorker cover was fucking hilarious to me!

10. well, Obama was nice enough to joke with Maureen Dowd when he met with her, even though she

deserves to be ignored.

God, Joe Scarborough is a buffoon. He just said "Oh, breaking news this morning. Apparently, the Daily Show told a Barack Obama joke last night. Big story." Uh, he has been telling Obama jokes for months, ding dong. And on a brighter note, a writer from New York magazine came on to talk about a story he wrote, and immediately said "Hey, Joe.I don't think you're eyes look like little raisins when you're tired....more like unpitted olives"

11. Dowd is another hack who hung around five years too long.

12. Vapidity, thy name is Maureen Dowd.

I think she's a little, umm, concerned that the bag of tricks she used on Gore, Kerry and Edwards don't seem to be working this time.

Her column is the most calorie-free space in dead tree media. And when she gets frustrated, she ceases to make any sense at all.

Poor thing. Without an angle to make fun of someone, she's completely lost.

13. I really tried to read her OP this morning... she is just a bitter, miserable person

I know she's trying to inject the usual character assassination of the Democratic candidate of the race so she can chortle to her parakeet in her lonely condo on the West Side, but she is just running out of material.

She wants to chide Obama for being humorless without obviously ever having had the experience to watch him speak. He is serious. He also will interject some humor in the mix.

This is over her little over-dyed haired head.

14. ignorant c@#t

is what she is...







GOBAMA!

[nam78_two]

15. Lame.nt

[Muttocracy]

16. yawn. Obama lacking humor? Not smiling? What cave is she living in? nt

[scheming daemons]

17. She's lying about the food at the convention too... Howard Dean already debunked this...

18. Dowd = Narcissist with a megaphone n/t

[Orsino]

19. Dowd = desperate to fill inches, and nothing to say.

Of course she ends up with utter inanity: http://www.dailyhowler.com/dh070908.shtml
