Dear Commons Community,
Maureen Dowd in her New York Times column today shows no mercy on the Republicans and their losses in this year’s elections. Here are a few examples:
“Team Romney has every reason to be shellshocked. Its candidate, after all, resoundingly won the election of the country he was wooing. Mitt Romney is the president of white male America. Maybe the group can retreat to a man cave in a Whiter House, with mahogany paneling, brown leather Chesterfields, a moose head over the fireplace, an elevator for the presidential limo..”
“As W.’s former aide Karen Hughes put it in Politico on Friday, “If another Republican man says anything about rape other than it is a horrific, violent crime, I want to personally cut out his tongue.”
Or what I thought was the best:
“Until now, Republicans and Fox News have excelled at conjuring alternate realities. But this time, they made the mistake of believing their fake world actually existed. As Fox’s Megyn Kelly said to Karl Rove on election night, when he argued against calling Ohio for Obama: “Is this just math that you do as a Republican to make yourself feel better?”
Worth the read!
Tony
I agree with you totally. I like where you say…they made the mistake of believing their fake world actually existed. I believe that this will be a good lesson to them. Good examples!
