DAVID BROOKS: Yeah, I’d say pop-right. There’s a bunch of headbanger, Guns ‘N Roses conservatives, types.

I’d rather be a conservative in blue jeans and listen to rock and roll than a New York Times-PBS “conservative” that Brooks tries to project.

No one eight years ago discussed how “ultralLEFTIST” Barack Obama’s administration would get.

Lets start calling 'em by their REAL name.

John Adams was a Guns and Roses fan?

WTF? There is only one explanation for this lunatic incomprehensible nonsense. David Brooks is a meth-head.

Not one more dime of taxpayer money for NPR/PBS. They had their genesis when there were only three major broadcast networks and a few local stations. Now, there are prob. 1000 cable channels representing different topics and interests. There is NO justification for using our money ($ 500 million a year) for this nest of leftwing snakes who are grossly overpaid at the administrative levels. If they want to continue to exist, let them do bake sales or go to their buds in Hollywood, hat in hand. Not five cents of taxpayer money should go to support these biased elitists. Trump must zero them out in the first budget.

Well, hey, the NHL that featured far more many helmetless players and had only a five minute penalty (before the dumb instigator rule), that was the more polite NHL. I guess that fits in with the “headbanger” definition, lol.

Brooks is trying sooooo hard to get on the right side of the equation and make himself relevant.

He has been vehemently anti-Trump all the way until the winning inning.

"Ultra-conservative" agenda:

-- Defend America
-- Enforce immigration laws
-- Shrink government
-- Strengthen the American economy
-- Eliminate bureaucracies that stifle job creation
-- Ally with our friends and strike fear into the hearts of our enemies
-- Restore pride in the greatest nation on earth.

"Mainstream-liberal" agenda:

-- Allow illegal aliens to decide on domestic policy
-- Provide an easy living for deadbeats
-- Permit men to use womens' bathrooms
-- Pretend that sodomy is the equivalent of marriage
-- Prohibit any resource development that would strengthen America's economy
-- Raise taxes
-- Promote a governmental "solution" to every problem real or invented
-- Betray our allies and cozen up to unstable, even hostile regimes
-- Encourage the invasion of our country by people who intend to kill us and destroy our way of life

Now which one was the "extremist" group again?

I’m just glad GNR was smart enough to keep politics out of the lyrics. Although Axl definitely seems interested in it the messages (to me) don’t really reveal one clear political belief over another.
