Accusations of incompetence in the field of expertise (economics in this case) are toothless if leveled by a person unqualified to exercise judgment in that field. What don't you understand about that? What's your fucking point?

This primary campaign has gone on too long if we have devolved to insect metaphors. Couldn't Hillary at least be a praying mantis?

]]> <![CDATA[Maureen Dowd Unconcerned About Fake News]]> Just to be the dissenting voice, I'd like to say that I wholeheartedly support Maureen Dowd's entire career based entirely on the supporting role it played in "The Rural Juror" episode of 30 Rock.

Obviously Jenna is Jenna Maroney! Now that's one hot threesome!

Besides, get real. DARK chocolate? Show me a woman who won't eat Rush Limbaugh's dick dripping with ANY kind of chocolate and I'll show you a man in drag. And even then...

Didn't you call him a hack, before? "Hack" means a person is incompetent. You're not qualified to pronounce on his competence, prima facie. Let's compare biographies:

Krugman:

PhD in economics, MIT
Formerly tenured professor, MIT
Tenured professor, Princeton
Clark medal for distinguished young economist

Smails:

B.A. Earned A- in Economics 1001, spring term, 1999.

You may abhor his politics, but the "hack", "ridiculous", and (implied) "charlatan" line of attack is sapless.

Helman

]]> <![CDATA[Maureen Dowd Unconcerned About Fake News]]> Not to mention all those: "Women and Money" books. Act dumb and girly, stay out of the classrooms and grad schools--otherwise suck it up and learn your shit like the men have done. And that means addition, subtraction, percentages, balancing your checkbook and managing your portfolio. And not spending all your fucking money on dark chocolate, Italian shoes, and fancy cars that depreciate in value 25 grand the second you drive it off the lot.

lizzybennett

]]> <![CDATA[Maureen Dowd Unconcerned About Fake News]]> although I agree with the stupid women shit. Women drive me crazy. I hate shopping, hate shoes, hate dark chocolate, and when I pull up to the "boys club", it's in my running shoes at a7 minute mile pace (for thirteen plus miles). Not in a fucking Mercedes Daddy or ex hubby bought for me--orone I bought for myself, but lease.
Most women make me want to vomit, and it is because of their substantial amount of stupid shit. Sorry. Sex and the City, Oprah, More Magazine and Real Simple are proof of all of the above.


lizzybennett

]]> <![CDATA[Maureen Dowd Unconcerned About Fake News]]> she thinks she's fucking marilyn monroe. on with Chris Wallace a month ago, all slurring and purring and tossing her head and batting her eyes. No, honey. No No No. You are not, will not, cannot ever be a sex pot, thinking man's or otherwise. Why you are not a drag queen favorite is beyond me.

lizzybennett

]]> <![CDATA[Maureen Dowd Unconcerned About Fake News]]> @Helman: This sounds right on to me. I would add that she seems like the type who not only has no female friends, but is really proud of that, and talks about it all the time, and at least claims that this is entirely due to her rejection of women and "their stupid shit." I take this mostly from the impressions I formed in reading that terrifying anti-feminist manifesto she wrote a few years back on the topics of femininity, intelligence, and dating.

100% right on the pandering to men, though it used to be more blatant when she was a serial-dater of high profile male journo's.

She has claimed to be friends with Michiko Kakutani and one of the other Times women - maybe Alex Witchel.

Helman

]]> <![CDATA[Maureen Dowd Unconcerned About Fake News]]> @Helman: I consider Krugman more dangerous than Dowd, because he attempts to imbue his ridiculous economic opinions with the sheen of academia and wonkery. Whereas with Dowd, everyone knows she's a fucking joke.

valarmorghulis

]]> <![CDATA[Maureen Dowd Unconcerned About Fake News]]> I don't read her anymore because all of her columns can be summarized as follows:

1. Hillary Clinton is an emasculating harpy with a smooth, Ken doll-like patch where her genitalia should be.

2. Barack Obama is a pansy with a vagina.

3. I hate men.

lawyergay

]]> <![CDATA[Maureen Dowd Unconcerned About Fake News]]> @ Pareene: The Obama fag-calling has been just a brief respite from her incessant, tedious, knee-jerk trashing of Hillary. But I'm sure something in tonight's coverage will remind her of her raison d'etre, so I'm guessing you'll like her column better tomorrow.
