#2 A nice heaping helping of schadenfreude, well seared on the grill, medium-well-done - it's what's for dinner! (with maybe some grilled mushrooms, a baked potato, and a nice spring green salad with a vinaigrette dressing on the side.)

#3 Yeah, Bush should announce that Obama had "acted stupidly".

#5 And don't forget the fava beans ... or with the potato, would that be too much starch?
Anyway, it's delicious. I love the smell of schadenfreude in the morning ... it smells like victory! Or the humiliation of brainless celeb-journos, which is almost as much fun.

#6 "It's time for W. to weigh in," writes the New York Times' Maureen Dowd.

Gee, she didn't even spend the effort to construct a statement for Bush as in Dowdification

Dowdification

Used as noun or verb. The willful omission of one or more words so the meaning of the statement is no longer understood but that the statement suits the needs of the writer in launching an ad hominem attack whether or not the construction is truthful or grammatically complete.

Named after Maureen Dowd, based on her manufacture of a quote attributed to President Bush in her May 14, 2003 column (as first reported by Robert Cox on TheNationalDebate.com).

The term and the practice are often found in the Blogosphere.

MoDo must be slowing down in age.

MoDo

Maureen Dowd; standard New York Times lefty fare. Blinded by hatred for anyone who lives outside the Manhattan Membrane, particularly towards those who dare to live in flyover country; she has managed to have a verb/noun named after her, following a particularly dishonest hit piece of hers. See dowdify/dowding/dowdification.

#9 Dowdification: Used as noun or verb

Also an adjective meaning: Lack of stylishness and shabby named of course after Maureen Dowd. A dowdy woman is one who is unfashionably and unattractively dressed; without style as in a "Dowdy woman."

#10 "Please, George W. Bush, come expouse the leftist position so we can use you against the naaaasty conservatives, after we've been calling you a Nazi for eight years!"
