• Maureen Dowd, "When Myths Collide in the Capital": Maureen Is the Only Times Columnist with Balls

  
  — Authority:
  Did you serve in the military? Were you part of a close-knit combat unit? I always wanted to believe that if I was ever stuck in a firefight facing impossible odds, an effort would be made to come to my relief. Conversely, I always was prepared to give my life to come to the rescue of other soldiers facing such an ...

• Maureen Dowd, "America’s Military Injustice": Does Dowd Really Give a Damn?

  
  — Authority:
  Sexual molestation? Rape? My family has been victimized, but in some respects I suppose we could be deemed "lucky." More than a decade ago, my oldest son, then 10-years-old, limped home from school. He explained that two older boys had grabbed him and a friend, and had tried, over the course of an hour, to force them ...

  — Authority:
  My father-in-law, a farmer and one of the most kind-hearted persons I ever knew, died several weeks ago at the age of 94. My wife inherited a small sum of money from him, and we decided to use some of the funds to invest in Nano Retina, a tiny Israeli start-up company, which is creating an ultra small bionic retina, ...

• Now That’s Leadership

  
  — Authority:

• What Happened to Barack Obama?

  
  ::Broadcatching:: — Authority: 119
  The most annoying proclamation in modern America is the brilliant: “I don’t like Politics” The Empire is most appreciative for your benign contempt. It really helps. Six years ago, as the Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton campaigns were pulling tomfoolery all over Iowa and New Hampshire- Mrs. Clinton ...

  Holy cannoli, is Maureen Dowd ever pissed off at Obama. In her latest New York Times op-ed entitled "Bottoms Up, Lame Duck" ( http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/01/opinion/dowd-bottoms-up-lame-duck.html?_r=0 ), Dowd notes Obamas irritability and arrongance while answering a question from ABC News’s Jonathan Karl ...

• Maureen Dowd, "Silver Fox’s Pink Slip": Stuck in Puissant Elephant and Donkey Droppings

  
  — Authority:
  Make no mistake about it: George W. Bush was a disaster for the United States. The Second Gulf War destroyed the equilibrium that existed between Iraq and Iran in the Middle East, setting the stage for Irans fanatic pursuit of dominion over the region. His introduction of ground forces into Afghanistan was a tragedy ...

• MoDo and the virtues of not being able to throw a punch.

  
  — Authority:
  I’ve been meaning to highlight this passage from Walter Russell Mead… One interesting thing about Ms. Dowd’s description of “hardball” political tactics is just how dainty and genteel her brass knuckle suggestions actually are. A speech, an appeal to reason: there is nothing here about lucrative ...

• The Naughty Flamethrower

  
  — Authority:
  Things sort themselves out without any real agreement. Anyone who’s even vaguely conservative watches Fox News – run by Roger Ailes, who had been Richard Nixon’s media advisor and seems to be still at it, making unpleasant and shifty Republican politicians seem heroic, or if that’s not possible, turning them ...

• Sleeper unawake

  
  — Authority:
  Maureen Dowd, according to Doug Mataconis, is living in Aaron Sorkin’s fantasy universe: Dowd has become enamored with the idealized New York-Washington corridor vision of politics epitomized by the movie she references in her column [The American President], and even more so by Sorkin’s classic television ...

  The above is in response to Maureen Dowd’s ridiculous assertion that President Obama is incompetent for failing to get the 60 votes the Senate required to move the gun background checks legislation forward.

  — Authority:
  Last week, right here  we wrote about how President Obama lost the vote on the gun bill. heres part of what we said: President Obama is really more interested in campaigning and demonizing Republicans than he is in reaching across the aisle to make a deal.

• Come back, Obama

  
  — Authority:
  By Frank Moraes   Just one more quick note about all the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombing. I believe that Obama was so quick to call the bombing a terrorist act because, as usual, hes a wimp. Im sure he is worried that just like in Benghazi, the right wing will attack him for not calling it a ...

  Why are the columnists of The New York Times so down on Obama? Yesterday we had Maureen Dowd telling us that Obama has proven himself totally ineffectual ("he still has not learned how to govern") (see: http://jgcaesarea.blogspot.co.il/2013/04/maureen-dowd-no-bully-in-pulpit.html ). Today, in his New York Times ...

• Maureen Dowd, "No Bully in the Pulpit": Bitching About Obama, Ignoring Boston

  As I explained to my wife earlier today, our family has had its fair share of trauma. Two of my army buddies lost their faces to a Molotov cocktail, and my sons officer died a yard away from him. Ill spare you the details of both of these incidents, but if there is such a thing as post-traumatic stress syndrome ...

• Maureen Dowd, "The C.I.A.’s Angry Birds": After the Boston Marathon Attack, We Should All Be Angry

  
  — Authority:
  On Tuesday, President Obama finally got around to acknowledging that the bombing of the Boston Marathon was an "act of terrorism." Hmm, three dead and more than 170 wounded from bombs constructed from pressure cookers packed with BBs, nails and pellets - that sure as heck sounds like an "act of terrorism" to me. But ...
