trust me, the only secret elena has is victoria's.

I love Maureen Dowd, and so should you if you don't already. She's a best-selling author and columnist for the New York Times and was deservedly awarded a Pulitzer in the late 90s. I fell for her sense of humour when I first read 'Are Men Necessary?' - my father pulled it from his bookshelf and gave it to me one day with a wide grin. (Yes, I come from a thoroughly feminist household). The critics were critical. I assume they were simply not open to sarcasm.

Anyway, I just came across her latest piece - taking the piss out of the current US media debate about Elena Kagan's sexuality. Because you wouldn't want a Supreme Justice with a dirty secret.
