Bering Straight Talk [Mo-Do hating on Sarah]
NY Slimes ^ | Sept. 13, 2008 | Maureen Dowd

Posted on 09/14/2008 8:36:23 AM PDT by Alouette

I’ve been in Alaska only a week, but I’m already feeling ever so much smarter about Russia.

I can’t quite see it from my hotel window, but, hey, I know it’s out there somewhere, beyond all the stuffed bears and cruise ships and glaciers and oil derricks.

The proximity of the country from which William Seward bartered to buy Alaska for $7 million — Seward’s icebox — is so illuminating that I suddenly realize that we would commit a grave error by overestimating Russia’s economic strength. After all, it represents only 2.8 percent of the world’s G.D.P., even though its gross domestic product has ballooned from $200 billion in 1999 to $1.7 trillion this year.

But I overanalyze.

I think CZJ should play Sarah Palin in the movie of her life, don't you agree, Maureen?

Obama still can’t get his bearings straight.

What a bitter, unhappy person that Maureen Dowd is.

Her explosion onto the scene made Obama seem even more like a windy, wispy egghead.

Yep. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

MoDo heard about the male/female ratio in Alaska and decided that this is her chance to have sex with a man this millennium.

One of the most vicious, catty pieces yet.

More help for McCain and Palin.

Thank you, Maureen Dowd.

Can’t help themselves.

Hey Maureen,
We know that you hate men. You obviously hate women too.
What a wretched mutt you are!

Sarah has single-handedly ushered out the “Sex and the City” era, and made the sexy new model for America a retro one — the glamorous Pioneer Woman, packing a gun, a baby and a Bible.

Ever notice how many liberal, kook women reference "Sex and the City". I do beleive that this is what pisses off people like Maureen Dowd the most. No longer is the self-absorbed, aborto-centrist feminist being lauded by most American women; Instead, an honest, loving, self-sacrificing, and tough woman has become vogue again.

That's what will happen if you grow old before you grow up.

Except that Obama isn't an egghead, he would have to be very intelligent to be one.

If Maureen Dowd was a man I’d call her a first class @$$hole. What willful ignorance! How many times has the AK Air national Guard scrambled to intercept Soviet/Russian aircraft approaching US territory? Isn’t Palin the CinC of the AK National Guard?

CZJ would make a good Sarah in a movie, except she is too short, maybe good camera angles could overcome that.

I hope Maureen keeps writing this trash, as I have to think that her major audience is center to far Left center women. These kinds of attacks will be seen as unfair by a good number of those women, and by that fact alone drive them to Sarahs defense, and maybe even so far as to hold their collective noses and vote for her.

The liberal media during this election is reminding me of the cocky golfer who offers faint praise and tips on the first few holes of your match (while you’re losing) and then when he realzies he’s down 3 with 3 to go. Gone are the smiles and small talk, replaced by anger, cheating and panic.

I think that imagining oneself to be very intelligent qualifies for eggheadery. Few are anywhere near as smart as they think they are.

I tried watching “Sex and the City” a couple of times. I think a more appropriate title is “Sluts on the Make”.

Totally shallow, with no ‘redeeming social value’! (Anyone remember that line?)
