DOWD: I think she was too creditable.

I watched the LK interview as well.

Probably shouldn't nitpick, but it bothers me that so-called intellectual Dowd cannot use the English language above the 8th grade level.

She said: credible, which means believable or truthful. She meant to say credulous, which means easily convinced of something.

It is both amusing and irritating (I'm not sure in what proportion), when these liberals pretend to be educated and intelligent.

I'd be careful around Dowdie. She has so much pent up frustration, she might want to Bobbit sometime.

You watched it, I didn't. You no doubt understand what she meant better. But, when I read it in the above post, I wondered which one she meant, credible, as in she was allowed to obtain too much credibility by the NYSlimes when she is working with the enemy; or credulous, as she was too easily convinced by the enemy.

The enemy, of course, being the Bush administration.
