“New York Times Barbie”: Andrew Breitbart On Maureen Dowd’s Assault On Sarah Palin
by Andrew Breitbart
What a shock that Maureen Dowd devoted her New York Times column Sunday to attack Sarah Palin. It did not so much criticize Alaska’s governor for prematurely stepping down from her official duties as to finish off what sister snipers Katie Couric and Tina Fey began last fall.
The assassination of Sarah Palin - by media.
For those who didn’t pay attention, Mrs. Palin’s unexpected stratospheric rise as a national political figure threatened the media’s preordained presidency of Barack Obama.
In light of how the Obama machine took down Hillary Clinton, which unsettled many feminists who believed 2008 was their time, many who saw sexism at play - the destruction of an ascendant Republican female icon was an urgent imperative for the Democratic Party.
In conjunction with the laws of political correctness as perfected by the Democratic Media Complex, it would take prominent women to take down an unlikely and unexpected conservative feminist symbol that threatened to steal away Mrs. Clinton’s votes from the Chosen One.
While the vanquished then-senator from New York conspicuously removed herself from this task - going so far as praising Sen. John McCain’s running mate as “a very composed and effective debater” - a trio of media partisans, each with a unique skill set, rose to the task of tearing down Sarah Palin.
Misses Dowd, Couric and Fey - Mr. Obama’s Angels (featuring Joy Behar in the role of “Bosley”) - used a potent mix of mockery, snobbery and vitriol to undermine Mrs. Palin’s feminist bona fides.
They are what my wife calls “pad throwers,” an allusion to the shower room scene in the Stephen King film “Carrie,” in which the popular girls throw sanitary napkins and tampons at the film’s namesake.
Simply put, they are bullies. And female bullies - “Mean Girls” as Miss Fey’s film calls them - are the cruelest kind.

A brilliant piece.
Well done Andrew.
Here Here!
It’s a shame their judgement is too clouded to see that in fact, Sarah stands for everything that feminism should be about. Strength, wisdom, freedom.
yep,what ya’ll said-
and she’s alot easier on the eyes than the others.
Mean spirited shrews and yes, very afraid of Sarah Palin.
Once again I am totally disgusted for the thousandth time since last November. We can play their game too.
If these women only knew how very ugly they really are, they would never say a word and certainly not allow anyone to see their faces. They make people BARF!
Maureen Dowd is so jealous of Sarah Palin and it is very obvious!!!!
“Maureen, put a sack over your head. Give those around you a vacation from an eyesore.”
Give that lady some Preparation H,
Like a 5 gallon tub?
Thanks for the article:
Any time the Democrats go after anyone as furiously as they did Sarah maybe that’s the one we should lend our support to. The invasion of Alaska by the dizzy dems….were like blood thirsty paparazzi on steroids.
What else could we expect from communists; this is Alinsky’s training in action.
Alinsky: (Stalin, Lenin, Hitler, Islam) MSM are all Ministers of Propaganda
Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.
If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside; this is based on the principle that every positive has its negative.
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.
from Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals
Older WND article how college professors tell their students to smear Sarah and other conservatives. See Alinsky’s agenda above.

I think Sarah will be in for the worse nasty fight since McCarthy and Goldwater. Hope she’s has the stomach for the ad nauseum.
My prayers to her and all who want to see justice and preserve our Constitution.
On the one hand, Sarah Palin — mother of five, wife in a stable marriage, former Mayor, state Governor, former Vice President candidate with a following, athlete.
On the other, Maureen Dowd — single, never a mother, author of “Are Men Necessary?”, columnist for New York Times, never elected to any office, bitter, sickly looking.
And it is Maureen Dowd who is viciously attacking Sarah Palin!!!
The real question is: “Is Maureen Dowd Necessary?” The answer is “no.”
My God! Did anyone else see the resemblance? I’m looking at 20 years into the future, and Maureen Dowdy will be the spittin’ image of Helen Thomas.
Very funny Jim- I think you are correct! What is going on with her skin anyway? And those huge marionette lines! Let’s not forget Couric who is a total failure as a serious news person (how many people are watching her now- 2 or 3?). And Tina Fey- she will have to explain to her child why she helped to destroy the United States. I bet she regrets her stupidity already.
