RUMSFELD IS A METROSEXUAL
OR
Why does Maureen Dowd still have a job?


From the New York Times:

On the vice president: "I'd love to see Cheney with a pierced ear and a diamond stud. Or in a body-hugging black T-shirt, just for the pure sport of it.

"He needs new eyewear. With his big face and lantern jaw, he should lose those five-pound glasses. There are some fabulous frames out there.

"About his hair, all I can offer is my sincere regrets."

On the defense secretary: "In his own sort of antediluvian way, Rummy is a metrosexual. He works. He may be a warmonger, he may be intemperate, but just about every third woman I know wants him."


As Tom Tomorrow put it in his link to the editorial, "If it's on the cover of Entertainment Weekly, chances are it's going to show up in a Maureen Dowd column."

(If you haven't registered for the NYT online, I urge you to do so; it's free and, as far as I can tell, unobtrusive.)
