You'd think she would be used to losing by now!

"Brahmin they painted as a sissy."

You mean the guy who would only drink his own personal brand of bottled water?

I've seen MD (Mad Dog???) on TV several times recently and she is just plain weird. I'm sure that CZJ is quite jealous (LMAO!).

[ken5050]

She's irrelevant...far better to just ignore her..

[bushisdamanin04]

Could someone please tell me what “uxorious” means? I feel like I’m reading another Rick Atkinson book!

"The White House says it wants greater harmony, but it's acting like the thought police. Having run into resistance in their bid for global domination, the president and vice president are going for federal domination, pushing out anyone with independent judgment who puts democracy above ideology...."
=====
Why do we even bother to listen to these IDEOLOGISTS!! (notice I did not say Communist or Socialist this time!) -- they are so predictable. This flagged paragraph is so typical of the radical left, accusing their opponents OF EXACTLY WHAT THEY DO AND WANT... as usual ... how horrible, Democracy above Ideology. God forbid...that would be, uh, VERY AMERICAN!!!!! WE CAN'T HAVE THAT...HORRIBLE!!! These far-leftists who have forgotten totally why and how America was built, are tragically comical in their rabid pursuit of some direction and methodology for America that CERTAINLY IS NOT AMERICAN.

And had a butler who specialized in making PB&J sandwiches with the crusts cut off!

[bushisdamanin04]

Yhaaawza ... makes me wish I was young, handsome, rich, and intelligent.

[okie01]

...casting John Kerry as the feminized guy who couldn't get his sports references straight, the sort who would sashay about in Yves St. Laurent pajamas, dithering, whither-ing, and fetching bottled water for Teresa while the burglar alarm rang.

You've gotta give her this: she's got Kerry nailed, down to a tee!

[Max Combined]

To the victor belong the spoils.

"I've seen MD (Mad Dog???) on TV several times recently"

Her mouth, in particular, looks weird and ugly. Looking at her reminds me of Steyn's line about her being an elderly schoolgirl. It perfectly describes her.

[wagglebee]

It's a great word to describe sKerry!

Anything that makes MODO upset is okay by me. This is the most overrated bag of wind since Oprah.

ux•o•ri•ous adj. Excessively submissive or devoted to one's wife.

[wardaddy]

Hi Maureen, may I give you my opinion as to what your problem is dear?

[wagglebee]

It almost makes me wonder if she ever dated him.

[Fzob]

uxorious:

Foolishly fond of or submissive to your wife.

Seems out of context to me. Of course this is Dowd, so it isn't going to make sense anyway.

Watching Bush supporters shred a war hero into a war criminal was tiring.

It was actually more frightening to watch the democrats
turn a blind eye to the foibles of their war criminal,
and portrait him as the next best thing to Douglas McArthur.

Mo, I have never been more astounded at the libs capacity
for self delusion than now.

Keep it up.
