Bushworld: Enter at Your Own Risk

Bushworld: Enter at Your Own Risk

A Washington native, Maureen Dowd became a columnist for the New York Times Op-Ed page in 1995, after reporting on the Reagan, Bush I, and Clinton White Houses. She is now covering her sixth presidential campaign-and the second generation of Bush presidents who went to war with the same Iraqi dictator. Before becoming a columnist for the New York Times Op-Ed page, she wrote a column, "On Washington," for The NewYork Times Magazine. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1999 for distinguished commentary for chronicling the Clinton impeachment follies, as the Times entry put it, "with style as well as insight, with faultless instinct for hypocrisy in high places."
