New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd very obviously plagiarized Josh Marshall, in yet another editorial bashing the Bush administration: NY Times’ Maureen Dowd Plagiarizes TPM’s Josh Marshall.

On the release of the Justice Department’s memos on interrogation techniques, the New York Times is predictably having a case of the torture vapors: Interrogation Memos Detail Harsh Tactics by the C.I.A.

Another quality op-ed brought to you by the New York Times, as creepy crazy Libyan dictator Muammar Gadafi plays peacemaker, kind of: The One-State Solution.
