She didn’t write that.
Her brother Kevin did. She writes that her family is conservative; she’s the black sheep. She went home to Thanksgiving and her brother gave her his column, which is what was posted.
Looks like I’m the millionth person to tell you it was Kevin!
Sorry about that!
Signed,
Alas Babylon!, FReeper, proudly NOT reading the posts since 1998!
She just couldn’t bring herself to write the obvious. Her brother did a great job.
Rules fulfilled.
Thank goodness I read the article for once. Just looking at the excerpt I was experiencing discomfort and extreme cognitive dissonance, thinking that Maureen Dowd had written it.
Maurine didn’t write the article. It was written by “Kevin, an affluent, educated suburbanite”, and she republished it as a response to Krugman’s miserable, whining tweets.
Still, hat’s off to her for publishing it. No doubt she is still a liberal, but not as braindead or insane as most. She’s kind of like this liberal guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLG9g7BcjKs
So was I.
I received post 56 saying he dumped Dowd for Catherine Zeta-Jones.
I had no idea.
Wow, had no idea! Thanks.
I don’t get the Catherine Zeta-Jones imagery for every Maureen Dowd thread!
This article was written by Mo’s brother, Kevin. Smart guy, his sister got the elitist snot gene in the family.
Good article, flows nicely!
The only problem with the article
Mo’s brother nickname Hillary “Cersi” (from Game of Thrones)
Smaug (The Hobbit) fits so much better!
It’s a tribal thing here, along with hugh and series, stuned beebers, biting mooses, and guilty/not guilty female defendants. Maureen Dowd was Michael Douglas’es ex, IIRC before he married the estimable CZ-J.
Michael Douglas dumped Mo Dowd for Catherine Zeta Jones. Mo Dowd was heartbroken, according to Liz Smith or some other hag, and the word spread.
“Excellent article, coming from Maureen, I must say. We should be encouraging her if this is her viewpoint.”
That’s not her point of view. For some reason seanmerc chose to excerpt the part of her article that quotes her excerpt of an article written by her brother Kevin.
“Well, here is what Kevin, an affluent, educated suburbanite, has to say in his column, titled an “Election Therapy Guide for Liberals”:”
I didn’t know Dowd was married to Michael Douglas.
Celebrities are not on my radar screen!
lol
