Dowd on Obamas: “We disappointed them”

Dowd on the Obamas: “We disappointed them.” Maureen Dowd embraces her inner raaaaacist: “A presidency with all the joy of a root canal.” We agree, America is just not up to the task of having Barack Obama lead it. It would serve us right if he foresook us and never came back. In fact, we insist on it. (Link is to Don Surber’s article for those who don’t deserve the NY Times.)

  • Well, Maureen Dowd, AKA "Spinster/dried up hag who'd lose in a beauty contest with Helen Thomas and Marge Schott on personality alone", I don't particularly give a damn what you think.

  • Awwww geee, I disappointing dear leader....that just male me feel, oh how to describe this feeling?

    GREAT!!!

  • Looks like Mauron Dowd is going to lose her membership in the Confused Communist Club of Peoria ((CCCP)insert hammer and sickle emblem here)'
    How dare she say anything less than singing the praises of the great Obama?

    We disappointed him? They have it backwards, elected officials are there to gain our approval, not the other way around!

  • I'd rather have a root canal then put up with another 4 years of "Dear leader" and his pack of lying Marxist fools.

  • “A presidency with all the joy of a root canal.”

    That's the tooth, the whole tooth and nothing but the tooth so help me, God!

  • Dowd's overwrought column reads like it was written on the back of a barroom napkin.

    But are we worthy of the Obamas? I guess not, at least in the eyes of the Obamas and the Op Ed staff of the New York Times. I can live with that.

    • More like the wrapper of Chris's sanitary nappy... Dowd doesn't need them anymore being past her second menopause...

  • Dowd defines the miserable bitter old shrew that is a Liberal woman in her fifties. A woman that has always expected some knight to make her life right and when that does not happen blame good looking conservative women and their husbands.

  • I for one am glad I disappointed Obutthead and family, he sure disappointed most of America with his radical agenda and stupid decisions. It appears Maureen is try to make us guilty that we did not live up to dear leader....So what Maureen, are we gonna get six months in jail for not showing the appropriate enthusiasm like those lumps of coal in North Korea? Maureen, please kiss my ass.

  • If Maureen Dowd feels that way, she should write a big ass check from her and Chris's account so the obamas can leave right now. Who knows, maybe barry and mooochelle can use a butler and a maid. That would give Dowd and Mathews employment out of the USA.

    The country they all just hate!!!
