Torture who gone what now?
Speaking as a liberal, Maureen Dowd sucks. Her commentary is as saccharine as it is insipid, spawning half-assed arguments that begin with outrage and meander along, proving nothing before ending off with a parting salvo that usually resembles moral indignation.
General structure:
A) I can't believe the Bush administration did _____ [I usually agree with her here]
B) Rather than develop an argument against _____, I'll restate my anger with synonyms, off-point metaphors and some patent fire and brimstone.
C) Running out of space, I'll just state, again--for the record--that George W. Bush is ruining the country.
It's crap, really, and her latest piece is maybe the worst written thing I've read since last I drafted a blog. Ben postulates that she's the liberal Ann Coulter, and I suspect he may be right. They both whine and rant and posture to hide hollow arguments.

Yeah, I'm with you there. Dowd sucks. Sometimes I wish the community would purge the retards from its ranks rather than allow them to represent us.
Yeah, but then they'd just go start the Green Party.
heh.
Yeah, Maureen Dowd is definitely the weakest columnist they have. I don't think that she's exactly the liberal equivalent of Ann Coulter because most if not all of the contents of her columns are the truth -- they're just written extremely poorly.

A truth poorly told might as well be a lie, especially in the Op/Ed section. The effect is the same.
And I think what Ben meant was that they're both good looking.
