I will admit, I have been rather remiss about discussing politics as of late. I was getting a bit burned out on it. I like partisan politics. Left vs. Right, ideas, agendas, facts. But, it is hard to debate whose policies are better when all I see from the Left is “I hate Bush.” Their agenda is “Blame Bush.” Their policies are “do the opposite of what Bush and the Neo-cons want to do.” Their no facts but lots of feelings discussion has become tiresome. Even the DU has become boring to me. The main reason I started blogging was primarily to discuss the different viewpoints. I didn’t just want to slap out one viewpoint and move on. Sure, I new that I would be putting other stuff up, but politics was the main thing. And I was tired of it.
However, fortuitously, Mo “woo woo woo woo woo” Dowd came out with one of her gems. She’s such a big sweety, isn’t she? I just love the smirk she is wearing in her NY Times photo, don’t you?
It was remarkable to see President Bush lecture Vladimir Putin on the
importance of checks and balances in a democratic society.The only balance W. likes is the slavering, Pravda-like “Fair and
Balanced” coverage Fox News provides. Mr. Bush pledges to spread
democracy while his officials strive to create a Potemkin press village
at home. This White House seems to prefer softball questions from a
self-advertised male escort with a fake name to hardball questions from
journalists with real names; it prefers tossing journalists who protect
their sources into the gulag to giving up the officials who broke the
law by leaking the name of their own C.I.A. agent.
Does the name Helen Thomas mean anything to you, Mo? I would suspect that Mo only likes it when Left wing “journalists” ask bad questions. And, based on her inclusion of the male escort verbiage, it is about the sex. Furthermore, there is no law that states that journalists are immune to naming people who break the law, just because they are sources. The purpose of throwing the journalists into jail, which, BTW, was due to Contempt of Court, is to find out who leaked Valerie Plame’s name. If the balance is so off, why are you allowed to write such drivel, Mo?
An irritated Mr. Putin compared the Russian system to the American
Electoral College, perhaps reminding the man preaching to him about
democracy that he had come in second in 2000 according to the popular
vote, the standard most democracies use.
Look up the word “Republic,” Mo. I would say that Mo doesn’t like our Constitution.
Even the near absence of checks and balances is not enough for W.
Not content with controlling the White House, Congress, the Supreme
Court and a good chunk of the Fourth Estate, he goes to even more
ludicrous lengths to avoid being challenged.The White House
wants its Republican allies in the Senate to stamp out the filibuster,
one of the few weapons the handcuffed Democrats have left. They want to
invoke the so-called nuclear option and get rid of the 150-year-old
tradition in order to ram through more right-wing judges.
Or, maybe, Congressional Republicans want the business of Congress to go on without the feelings based pontification of the Democrats, who have no policies or agendas other then obstruction of their own. They stand for zip at this point. And, Mo, can you tell me who controls Congress and the WH? Yup. That would be “right wingers.” See, it is that voting by the People thing.
Mr. Bush and Condi Rice strut in their speeches – the secretary of
state also strutted in Wiesbaden in her foxy “Matrix”-dominatrix black
leather stiletto boots – but they shy away from taking questions from
the public unless they get to vet the questions and audiences in
advance.
“Matrix-dominatrix black…..” Jealous, Mo? Figures she would go there. Let’s refer back to Helen Thomas (courtesy of Right Wing News): “…following up Ann Compton’s question [regarding Saddam
Hussein’s court hearing], does [President Bush] agree with Saddam that
Presidents are above the law?” — July 1, 2004. As reported by Unknown News. Does that seem “vetted to you, Mo?”

So, in honor of Mo Dowd, I present her with not only the first ever Wedgies Award,but the Extreme Wedgie Award. Hopefully to become a weekly thing. Though, I suspect Mo will win most weeks.
BTW, I do not suggest searching Yahoo photos with the words wedgie, panties too tight, panties tight. I never knew that Yahoo allowed such filth in their photo albums.
he he he.. sorry Teach I loved her. It’s OK, I think Anne Coulter sucks fish, so we’re probably even on this one.
JulieB, I love Mo too. She gives me great material :)
And you never knew Yahoo had that stuff??? Oh Teach! Hey, maybe I just have the “Blue” version?
I really didn’t. The search terms that I have used for yahoo photos never brought me to that stuff. Pretty much just R rated stuff, nothing X. But still….
To quote Bugs Bunny, “What a Maroon!”
MoDo is good for a laugh every now and then. Unfortunately it’s tempered by the realization that some people actually take her seriously.
