BlogRoll: Brainster's Blog

Word Girl and I have been reading blogs for quite some time now, but one of the joys of blogging ourselves has been discovering blogs we never knew existed.

Brainster's Blog is one we happened on thanks to Blogfather Hugh Hewitt's recent Vox Blogoli. It's smart, funny, and covers a wide array of hot topics. Moreover, if you think you hate Maureen Dowd, you have not lived until you have singed your corneas on the white-hot Dowd-hating creamy nougat-filled goodness that is Brainster's Dowd coverage:

Hey Gang, What Time Is It?

It's Dowdy-Doody time!

Slow Mo is back with another of her spinster schoolgirl columns. It's even more insipid than her usual tripe, with Dowd "proving" that Secretary of State to be Condoleezza Rice doesn't know elementary subjects. Now, you might think that a woman who gripes all the time about how no man wants her because she's too smart might have a little sympathy for a super-intelligent, single woman. Guess again!

"Her geometry is skewed if she thinks she'll now be more powerful than Rummy and Dick Cheney. Doesn't she know that the Pentagon has more sides than her Crawford triangle with George and Laura?"

Two can play at that game. Hey, Maureen if only Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones had agreed to your suggestion of a menage a trois, you wouldn't be a shriveled-up and bitter skank. Well, actually you would still be a shriveled-up skank, but you wouldn't be quite as bitter.

And I thought Luskin was tough on Krugman...

Also, for some unKos-like disclosure, Pat at Brainster had some very nice things to say about our blog. In my defense, I had already vowed to link to this excellent blog upon seeing their Vox Blogoli response.

So with a heave, and a ho, to the BlogRoll it will go!
