WARNING! David Brooks has admitted that he lives in a wealthy bubble and to rectify that he plans to break out of his New York Times cocoon and travel down the Heart of Darkness to mix with the hoi polloi.

Indeed.I haven’t heard that phrase in a LONG time!

“For more than 8 years now that was your job, Mr. Brooks.”
But have we learned anything? Much of the damage has yet to manifest.
“Oh Bobo, Where Art Thou?”
The ultimate Bobo Bubble. You visit Europe but ignore the local culture in order to watch Springsteen concerts. It's like going to Italy and eating at McDonalds.
When you wet himself over Obama’s dry cleaner crease, you have no advice to offer working class men about their level of masculinity.
LOL!
Insufferable snob. This guy is just plain weird. He’s queer.
