Maureen Dowd, At Center of Obama-Clinton Feud

Cartoon first ran on September 1, 2006
The whole Geffen-Dowd-Obama-Clinton thing is what happens during slow news cycles, between Anna Nicole Smith autopsies and Britney rehab stories. There's nothing else to talk about for a couple days straight so the press clomps onto something like this.
Here's what I see:
#1) Hillary Clinton should have gone after Geffen and Dowd, not Obama, since Geffen is the one who smeared her.
#2) Obama didn't do anything wrong.
#3) David Geffen thinks the Clintons are lying scumbags.
#4) Maureen Dowd can write but is a cynical puke.
Interesting piece dissecting Maureen Dowd's "hit piece" on Barack Obama. I'm not a huge Maureen Dowd fan, which is weird considering how positive and optimistic she comes across in print. She, like me, hates sarcasm and cynicism, which is why I think it's strange she'd have a problem with someone as negative, pessimistic and divisive as Barack Obama.
Yeah... I suck at sounding sarcastic in print. Oh, well. Read more here...
