Brock is a silly little man with a silly little education that couldn’t earn him a dime out in the real world.

This is David Brooks (Bachelors, U of Chicago, journalist, NYT)—not David Brock (Bachelors; Berkeley, founder, MediaMattersToSorosObamaHillary).

Both silly, though.

Well this female with a Ph.D. is not only voting for Trump but wearing my “I’m a Deplorable” t shirt while I craft a white paper on a topic in neuroscience, bake a pie and choose my church outfit for tomorrow!

Brooks has a BS degree in History.
It’s like Women’s Studies and Basket Weaving without the homework.

In his gene pool, having a crease on your pants is the most important attribute for a president.

His ex-wife couldn’t stand him either.

Why does the right even pay attention to people like Brooks? Ignore the window licker and maybe he will fade away.

Your Brooks quote about the current Democrat tool in the White House:

I mean, he is pretty dazzling when he walks into a room. So, that’s why it’s important he doesn’t fuck this up.”

Someone advise Brooks that Big "O", despite his creased pants, did "f@ck this up."

Healthcare a disaster, country divided, race relations gone down the toilet, minority unemployment focused on putting them on the plantation, Hillary criminality ran unchecked -- Yep, this whiz kid of Brooks did forget and F up.

Hillary? She is already F'd up.

Brock sure can’t make that claim.

This article is about David Brooks, not David Brock. Similar mindset, tho.

One of my elitist in-laws tried the same line on me years ago -- over the issue of abortion.

He sent me a newspaper article claiming that pro-lifers (like me) were, on the whole, members of the less educated class. To be educated was to be "pro-choice."

I've detested the guy ever since. Recently he suffered a major humiliation in his professional career ... I must confess feeling some sweet Schadenfreude over the huge hit to his elitist ego.

Thank you for pointing that out.

Sorry that I swapped those names inappropriately.

Luckily in this instance, the comments wouldn’t be changed by the correct name being inserted.

It’s about time to get some new glasses. All kidding aside, I have made a few mistakes here based on sight recently.

True, Jay-Z was a hgh school dropout. Beyoncé went to a high school for performing arts in Houston and graduated from a different high school. They’ve done pretty well for themselves, though. But not exactly from intellectual pursuits.

Brooks said the less educated and non-college educated whites are going to vote for Donald Trump no matter what. He added, "people are just going with their gene pool."

That's just deplorable.

I am so stupid, as I have never been invited to a dinner where breast milk, semen, blood and urine were served.

Good for you.

I suppose I both do and do not fit this pompous elitist’s profile:

I have zero degrees; I am an autodidact.

On the other hand, I always tested in the top half of the top one percent of college-bound students, I garnered multiple awards in science and mathematics, and - after many years of being maligned as inferior by pseudo-intellectuals like David Brooks - I obtained (as an admitted compensatory mechanism) acceptance in Mensa, Intertel, and the Top One Percent Society (with Mensa being the least exclusive of such organizations).

I now understand more than ever why I never liked being classified as an intellectual by those who knew me well enough to recognize my intelligence: I hate supercilious snobbery. (That is why I never joined a High-IQ group in my youth.)

Although I have never participated in many functions with Mensa (the most populous such group), I was pleasantly surprised to find that the snobs in it were in the minority. Many of them are just otherwise ordinary people who happen to enjoy unusual intellectual pursuits.

In case it is needful to say: This Mensan is for Trump.
