so.

I understood your point & agree.

As for haircuts, get mine done at Kenneth’s at the Waldorf Astoria, though not by Kenneth himself. Just went above $100. So $400 sounds pretty dear to me.

Of course they have to fly the guy out and he needs a hotel and he might need to use the google and stuff. It gets expensive but who cares? Let’s get off the repigs talking points. Every one go get a cup of scotch or your favorite whatever and lets talk about the perfect storm; Dual resignations for coke-head and shooter; no ability to pardon; fraud and treason indictments.;cleaning out Justice and Energy and ridding them of Libery University pukes; The Terd Blossom Hog March., etc. Now that is my idea of reality TV.

If I recall correctly, plenty of that charge was for tv makeup. And all of those republicans also get made up for tv…shrub, every single time.

The whole attack is as bogus that on Gore’s brown suit…also spearheaded by MoDo. (She can’t be teh shrieking harpy, because there can be only one.)

Don’t forget that this woman, who wrote a book bemoaning the lack of eligible males, also wrote an entire column judging Howard Dean’s marriage and finding it sadly deficient.

No wonder she was so openly envious of Wonkette at YearlyKos. At heart, she’s nothing more than a gossip columnist.

I just wish she’d stop playing her Sex and the City neuroses out in the pages of the NYTimes. It’s a waste of column inches.

She’ll do this to every Democratic candidate from now till the party’s Convention, after which she will announce that the candidate, for all his or her weaknesses, is (alas!) the only choice we have in the face of a Republican meltdown.

She’s false-a false person. She affects to think about politics, but writes like a gossip columnist who wandered over from the Post’s “Page Six”…. Meeting, it seems, the needs and standards of her employer: maybe she only exists to reassure the readership that the paper doesn’t take Krugman to heart–that he just hangs there like a Christmas tree ornament.

But has anyone here noticed MoDo’s m.o. with her relationships?

She adores ADDICTS.

For example… sex addict Michael Douglas and global all-purpose universal addict and grandiose hack Aaron Sorkin…

Who she breathlessly considers the O’Neill of our time.

I think Maureen has spent too much time playing in her Norma Desmond mirror.

The “political machine”? Guess that’s Maureen……and you.

You got it, Odd Mommy.

I spent several hours finding all the links for this post — links that, if anyone read them, would show the reader just how bogus the “haircut attack” is — and yet there are a couple of people here who either didn’t click on the links or have serious reading-comprehension issues.

And they fall for the same bogus garbage that La Dowd is getting from her buddies at the RNC. Bob Somerby was right when he asked why people go after Ann Coulter when Maureen Dowd spews the same garbage and reaches more people, and in a “respectable” forum — namely, the pages of the NYT.

OT but current – PFC Jessica Lynch in congressional testimony today: “I’m still confused as to why they chose to lie”

LIE. Oops.

Go Mountaineer!

oddmommy @ 228

lemme tell ya what, eyesonthestreet. I sent MoDo an e-mail asking her to discuss how much she spends on HER haircuts in her next column. Don’t think I’ll hold my breath; will you?

We are drowning in the quicksand that this abomination of a presidency has wrought on us. One of its many reprehensible features is 24/7 hypocrisy. Do you have any reason to believe that the cost of Edwards’ haircut means he is insincere about helping poor people????

No, keep breathing, please. Edwards cannot have his cake and eat it too. If he is running as the spokesperson for the common man, and to point out the inequalities of this country, he just can’t be claiming $400 haircuts on his campaign statements. Why? Because the political machine will also point it out as an hypocrisy.

The “political machine”? Guess that’s Maureen……and you.

It might be worth remembering that the mods are volunteering their time and do an excellent job in keeping the threads as clean as they are.

Honey, instead of vinegar, might get better results in the future.

Pardon my incivility. Could some brilliant and caring mod clean up the troll poop?

I promise to be good and also extra generous on Act Blue next Saturday.
