The Angry, Lazy Bigotry of Maureen Dowd...

[Michie]

Maureen Dowd, as most readers know, writes a regular op-ed column for the New York Times. Her dislike for certain people and institutions is quite obvious, mostly because she fixates on them in nearly every column: men, the Catholic Church (specifically, the pope, bishops, priests), Republicans (especially men who are leaders in the GOP)...

NY Times Journalists Again Reveal Why They Are Obsessed with Catholic Church Sex Abuse

Maureen Dowd and Nicholas D. Kristof, New York Times


The New York Times has shown yet again that the abuse of children does not really bother them unless it involves the Catholic Church. But if there were still any doubt, the Times has now made it perfectly clear that the decades-old abuse of minors by Catholic priests is simply a rhetorical tool with which it can bludgeon the Catholic Church because it does not conform to the paper's left-wing liking.

It was only a week ago when a New York Times editorial fretted about the Catholic Church's efforts to align the dissident leadership of a conference of left-wing nuns with Church doctrine, and the paper predictably used the scandals as a useful cudgel to promote "progressive" dissent.

Now Times' opinion writers Maureen Dowd and Nicholas D. Kristof have double-upped on the Grey Lady's predictable tactic with similar Church-bashing columns running just a week later in the same Sunday issue.

Dowd is one angry, bitter, disturbed woman. I am grateful that I do not have live inside her head....that level of hatred for everything and everyone around her must be extremely difficult to live with.

Maureen Dowd taken to task for inaccuracies, illogic
In Catholic World Report, Carl Olson takes up the arduous task of pointing out all the errors of fact, logic, and syntax in a piece by New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd excoriating the Vatican....

Hey, Maureen It’s None of Your Business

Wow. Followed by the angry lazy bigotry of Carl Olson and Christian Tappe.

 

[Blackwater Babe]

Right, because the correct response to the priest sex abuse scandal is to complain about the critics, and say its none of their business.

Wow. Followed by the angry lazy bigotry of Carl Olson and Christian Tappe.

It don't apply to them when they can give a reasoned logical explaination, unlike the misquotes of Maureen.

HUH! Where do you find that?
