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.
UPDATE: Interestingly enough, this Ted Rall comic made right after the election shows no hate at all. I guess he ran out.

Things are heating up and the hammer is about to fall in Fallujah. Make sure to say your Sunday prayers for our troops and the Iraqis. Godspeed, guys.
