We're agnostic when it comes to NYT Columnist Maureen Dowd
Once-in-awhile, she hits a triple, or even less often, a homerun, but, more, it a case of spraying out seeing-eye-singles, and, an occasional ground-rule double.
The other day, however, she had her claws out, and sharpened, taking on the Grand Poohbar of Dittoheads, The Cheeseburger That Sweats (h/t Barry Crimmins) himself, Rush Limbaugh.
She goes on, at some length, of meeting, and having dinner, with the man maggots consider to be a social class above of, and, that means she's a player, of course.
Robert Stein, over on Connecting-The-Dots has a very wry riff on it;
Dowd's Date With LimbaughIn the annals of sexual politics and odd couples, none could ever match the possibilities of mating Maureen Dowd and Rush Limbaugh, a power pairing that would have made Mary Matalin and James Carville look like America's Sweethearts.
And, of course, she works in again, her sobriquet “The Boy Emperor”, as her "badge of honor" for drawing the ire of Smegma Man.
Yet, she recoups, waiting until the very, very end of the column, to level the slap across Rushbo's portly face;But on Sunday, he ripped the president for having “an out-of-this-world ego,” for being “very narcissistic,” “immature, inexperienced, in over his head.” (Isn’t immaturity scoring OxyContin from your maid?)
Ouch!
It gives new meaning to pot, kettle and black.
Dissin' him for being a junkie!
(Can't wait for her and Glenn Beck to go out, at least, for coffee.)

Top Ten Cloves: Other Possible Excuses Maureen Dowd Could Used For Plagiarizing TPM's Josh Marshall
News Item: How would the NYT react if Joe Biden gave an excuse this lame?
10. Thought "Josh Marshall" was a big department store in Chicago
9. Didn't think the "pajama-wearing, cheeto-eating" crowd would notice
8. She was trying to piss off the Chenny Fluffers on CNN
7. It's Sweeps Month!
6. Believed Alex Rodriguez was "tipping" her that it was okay to plagiarize
5. Just the burden, the strain, of having to write TWO columns, per week
4. Got confused, thought she was lifting material from 'The West Wing'
3. She was jealous of Ann Coulter
2. Thought she had given up plagiarizing from Polk Award winners for Lent
1. She, and her friend, were just goofing around, playing the old Johnny Carson 'Carnac the Magnificent' game, and the TPM thing came up, and, somehow, made it into her column
