Dowd is such a hack https://t.co/TKDGxZNaQg

As is predictable…all the other press folks online, especially Dowd’s NYT colleagues, are all crowing about how bold and correct this take is. They desperately want a narrative of ‘Dems are all hypocrites and thus really responsible for everything, so let the REpublicans do everything they want goddammit!’

The fact that Dowd still has a column and career is bad enough. But the rush for her colleagues to use this as a flashpoint to declare Obama the ultimate out of touch super failure of all time is just….fucking hell.
