      <![CDATA[The only legit way you can make a cut-and-paste error would be to cut-and-paste something that you thought you had written. If she's picking up paragraphs from friend's e-mails, then that's not a cut-and-paste error: that's misrepresenting a friend's idea as your own--which is still wrong even if your friend hadn't stole the idea from a blogger. The whole thing stinks.

      <![CDATA["A cut and paste error"?  Are you fucking serious with that shit?  What happened was someone emailed her having copy and pasted that paragraph themselves and slightly altering it without citing it, and then Maureen Dowd copied it from them thinking it was the original creation of her friend and not from a blog.<br />
<br />
Regardless she's a talentless hack and so is her friend.

      <![CDATA[I wonder what Dowd would have to do to get fired from the NYT? Apparently plagiarism is not enough, or putting a fabricated dateline on a column, or making up quotes, or conducting a "relentless gender-laden assault against Hillary Clinton" (according to NYT's public editor). Or being batshit crazy and a terrible writer, of course.
