Down With MoDo

I played a game today where I opened Maureen Dowd’s column, just to see how many paragraphs I could read before I couldn’t take it anymore. I ended up lasting until the fifth graf, when she started in on how “9/11 was an emasculating blow, and the White House had to strike back at somebody.” This completely wrong formulation, surprisingly, only Maureen’s third most-tiresome meme, trailing “men are afraid of strong women like me” and “[so-and-so politician] is a metrosexual.” The only worse thing I could imagine would be if Frank Rich wrote a column about the "Aristocrats" joke and somehow related it to the evils of George Bush. Oh, wait...
