Shorter Maureen Dowd (The Tracks of Our Tears)

by Blue Stockings |  MoDo likes nothing better than a sentimental-yet-wryly-tongue-in-cheek journal of self-discovery.  Are you wondering what MoDo is thinking now that her secret dorky crush has been elected president? (O Brave New World that has such people in it!) See The Tracks of Our Tears.

Shorter nutshell version:

Am I the only white person who finds it awkward talking to black people, now that electing Obama has made it de rigeur for the fashion-forward?  Strangely, some interpret well-intentioned attempts to probe their feelings about the election as false or condescending.  I must ask my African American friend to explain to me what her people want.

You need to have your Irony Detector fixed. The column is actually saying the exact opposite.
