DOWD AND THE RULE OF LAWS: Something about New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd's recent columns seems to be inspiring some critics to become lawmakers. Josh Chafetz, one of the contributors to OxBlog, codifies his criticism of Ms. Dowd into The Immutable Laws of Maureen Dowd in The Weekly Standard. Brian Griffin of PulpStalag has a different interpretation of the "Laws". Meanwhile, Mark Goldblatt explains The Dowd Rule in the National Review Online.
