Maureen Dowd

Nobody here likes Maureen Dowd?

who's she?

For what it's worth, I think she's terrific too - I'll be sure to check out her column today.

Don't worry Rose, you haven't missed anything. She writes a lot of liberal crap that doesn't make any sense. You're much better off reading someone like Ann Coulter.

She has red hair, and frightens people.

I hope you're talking about the stunning evolution column -- the one with Adam and Eve running around Eden naming the dinosaurs. I agree, it's one of the funniest and most pointed assaults on the new dumbing down of science education in this country. (A museum opening in Kentucky that honors creationism. It sounds like a SNL skit, but apparently it's for real.)

Dowd is brilliant and fearless and thank God (the one who created the Earth in however long it took, and gave us both the T. Rex and Maureen) we have her writing. She's out there, without a net. Thanks for reminding the board.

Wow. That's a poetic interpretation of the singular genius of miss Dowd.
But I love her, too. Still haven't gotten Bush World yet but I definitely intend to.
