That’s what I said. I dont’ care WHO it is...you DO NOT put up with that kind of perverted nonsense. Makes one wonder if this story is true or not. Sensationalism maybe??

Brooks is disappointed it didn't lead to any real action.

Also he said: “Ehhh, like get me outta here????” I know what I would have done. This is bogus...put the story out there with no fact to back it up. Then he won’t name the guy? Bogus, bogus, bogus.

Similar to the “unnamed sources” ruse. As long as they’re unnamed, they don’t have to be real. Our side should take a stand on this: if they’re not going to name them, WE should not assume they’re telling the truth.

This is the guy who’s “truth” changes with his politics.
ESPECIALLY when is comes to sexual exploits!

Pretty talented guy who only uses one hand to complete a full meal. I wonder if he had steak? I’d like to have seen that accomplishment. I think this story is BS. Since when is the NY Times worried about secrecy?

A diversionary tactic to change the subject from O’s ungentlemanly behaviour towards the junior G8 attendee.

Now that I’ve made myself irrelevant by conforming my views to those of my employer, the NYT, maybe I’ll just jump a shark or two.

Why of course...I totally believe that a male US Senator would rest his hand on a male NY Times columnist's leg throughout an entire dinner. Sure, makes perfect sense...

/sarc...just in case
