IMAO - Dowd Mad! Dowd Smash!
So Maureen Dowd has gone from annoyingly snarky to bitter and angry. I just saw her on the Chris Matthews show and, when Matthews asked the panelists to "tell me something I don't know" (man I could have fun that question), Dowd said that the rapture was coming and that she and Matthews would be taken up while all hypocritical evangelists telling people what they shouldn’t do would be left. Wow, that's bitter. Well, she was never good with politics, and I expect her worse with theology. And, if Dowd is the model of who makes it to Heaven, I think I'll find some other place for my immortal soul to reside.

The bitterness hasn't made her writing any better; it's still just a bunch of assertions with no arguments. I honestly could write better while being assaulted with a knife. That she's in the New York Times and I'm not syndicated in at least half of all U.S. newspapers is a great injustice.

I think we should take the town with B-52s and 500 pounders dropped ever 50' until there is nothing but a big hole in the ground.

<<<We will protect and transport them to the location of the events. There will be a special building for the journalists>>

No thanks:
Much as I would like to photograph 117 cars and hundreds of Iraqi civilians being blown sky high, I have a keen desire not to be beheaded or become part of the foundation for a new building to replace the "special" one.

<<Fallujah insurgents besieged by US and Iraqi troops have invited journalists to “embed” with them to report their side of the war.>>

Ah, er, wouldn't that be like volunteering to be captured and beheaded?
