White Man’s Last Stand (Maureen Dowd alert)

The New York Times ^ | July 14, 2009 | Maureen Dowd

[Bratch]

You can’t judge a judge by her cover.

Despite the best efforts of Republicans to root out any sign that Sonia Sotomayor has emotions that color her views on the law, the Bronx Bomber kept a robotic mask in place.

A wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not know that a gaggle of white Republican men afraid of extinction are out to trip her up.

After all, these guys have never needed to speak inspirational words to others like them, as Sotomayor has done. They’ve had codes, handshakes and clubs to do that.

[Richard Kimball]

I wouldn't give the Times web site a click, but from the excerpt, I had to laugh. Dowd is a charter member of the NY arts and croissants crowd. If there was ever a member of a club that considers themselves the exclusive insider group, it's the editorial staff at the Times.

I've also noticed the Times has done absolutely nothing in terms of looking at her judicial record.

[television is just wrong]

dowd has probably gone lesbian.

[Old Professer]

Dowdy Doody already has arsenic dripping on her old lace sunken bodice and running down her arthritic limbs where it splashes sullenly to the basement floor, scattered with rejections from E-Harmony.

[nfldgirl]

Zeta-Jones = “Wise Welsh Woman!”

[TexasCajun]

Poor Modo, if only she had a handsome husband and family...

[matginzac]

What a great idea! How sad to have your personal life so pathetic that no one takes your views, for which you are getting paid, seriously. Women have to be that much more careful and she has blown it big time - case in point - the stupid book she wrote about how lousy her love life is. Definitely her own fault...

[Oldpuppymax]

Poor Maureen. One can always tell a leftists female, frustrated and fed up with the limp-wristed, dip-stick “men” the left has to offer.

[matginzac]

LOL

[relictele]

In which our heroine gets paid handsomely for 500 words that essentially cry out ‘RACIST’ again.

[Batman11]

I ruv these MoDo threads!!

[ladyvet]

dowd has probably gone lesbian.

[ml/nj]

Dowd should read Raspail's Camp of the Saints if she's really interested in the white man's last stand. It's not pretty.

“white Republican men afraid of extinction”
the only reason why White men are in the Republican party is that it is their only (faint) hope of being kept from extinction.

[ebshumidors]

This is what I emailed the Bitter Woman -
Two things....
1.Find a country NOT run by white men that is worth a damn.
2.Catherine Zeta-Jones

[Woebama]

I must be out of the loop... all I know is the regular handshake. :(

Take that Maureen Dowd!

[Tzimisce]

So which liberal blog did this originally come from?

Can you imagine how embarrassed the guy who hired Dowd must be?

[Blood of Tyrants]

Sotomayor is lying her fat Latina ass off. And she will continue to do so until confirmed and then she will go back to being the racist she is.

[junta]

This self loathing act which they push in their triangulation strategy to keep them up at the top is gonna wear thin with both sides.

Me, too! How come we weren't given the memo about the cool stuff???

[ottbmare]

Thanks, I had assumed that people were sending her such photos, but perhaps not. In case no one has thought of this before, we could just send a picture, captioned, “Maureen, we understand. This is why you’re so nasty and catty. Search your soul, find peace, develop a sweeter temper, and maybe someday some man might love you.”
