Maureen Dowd of New York Times sets official all-time record for name-dropping

The article was called "What would Jesus do at the Masters?"


Well, after a bit of ponderation, I came to the conclusion that His only realistic option would be to feed the multitude.

After all, that ain't a crowd that needs a lot of hoo-ha about turning the other cheek and inheriting the earth and all that shit. They already own the earth.

But they've been sitting out there in the hot sun all day and they'd probably enjoy a cold drink and a good feed.

I would have left it at that.

But maybe that's why you don't get to read my pithy witticisms in the New York Times.

I would have left it at that, but Maureen certainly didn't.

Here's who she called upon to make her point that, that... oh hell, what was her point?

Anyway, here's the list:

Rev. Alberto Cutie
Jesus
Kenneth Biggs
Pope Benny
Lester Madox
David Israel
Obama Barack
Scott Walker
Nancy Pelosi
Hillary Clinton
Prince Nawaf bin Faisal
Saddam Hussein
Adolf Hitler
Leni Riefenstahl
Virginia Rommety
Rick Santorum

All those folks referenced in an article that can't be much over eight hundred words?

That is name-dropping artistry of the highest order!

We are clearly in the presence of a world class name-dropper here.

That's why Maureen Dowd's ruminations are in the New York Times and mine are in an obscure blog.

Obviously I have to hone my name-dropping skills.
