Here we go again. The same old story. Another Democrat President will be lauded as the SMARTEST man on the face of the earth...................and of course the dumbest woman on the face of the earth, not to mention a fatal cancer for the GOP, is a Republican.

Northeast elitist liberals [GOP or Dims] make me ILL!!!!

Minus_The_Bear says: “Romney and his supporters are scum.”

Methinks "Minus" is minus a few marbles.

"[Biden] can't not say what he thinks," Brooks remarked. "There's no internal monitor, and for Barack Obama, that's tremendously important to have a vice president who will be that way.

Unlike Biden, at least Sarah Palin has read Article I of the U.S. Constitution.

[apocalypto]

D. Brooks is a nut. S. Palin has energnized the Republicans, that brought out crowds who would never have showen up for John S. McCain. She is fun.

'David, if you wanna attack us, fine, but you're only throwing in those sentences to make yourself feel better.' And it was a perfect description of what was going through my mind.

So in other words, David Brooks just admitted to America he is intellectually dishonest. How did such a "conservative" poseur ever get a job with Bill Buckley?

Anyone who works for the treasonous New York Times, gleefully attends a soirée for the left-wing Atlantic Magazine at the très chic Le Cirque restaurant and celebrates the work of democratic socialist Reinhold Niebuhr is about as much of a "conservative" as Barack Obama. Brooks is an effete gay urbanite who passes as a man of the "right" in Manhattan because he wears Brooks Brothers suits and doesn't sport an earring.

Hey Brooks, Good Fences Make Good Niebuhrs

Brooks likes eggheads, is an egghead and even tries to claim Ronald Reagan as an egghead - which he was not. Intelligent, with good conservative free market values, Reagan wasn’t staying up late reading Reinhold Niebuhr, but it was a nice try by Brooks.

Reagan would have loved Palin, I am sure of that.

Brooks is confused - Obama is a political opportunist who has never taken a risk and only sought higher office in a typically cut throat fashion. His surrogates opened up Jack Ryan’s divorce papers and he benefited while saying ‘how terrible’. No change there. He is not a real “leader”, perhaps a fascinating history teacher at an all white boarding school, but definitely not someone that men will follow into battle. It is obvious to me that there is a certain cowardice to him, a sneakiness about what he truly believes, and how he is disguising himself to the electorate. It is really distasteful, how this hollow man who selected a psycho church that matched his leftist values, is navigating the political shoals of black ultra nationalism and hate into the living rooms of white adoring fans and using Christianity as a cover. No one knows anything about him. He accomplishes this by not explaining his beliefs nor the people that brought him to this point, and having the media for the most part not actually investigate him. He joined the Chicago machine - and was in the process of selling himself to Tony Rezko the fixer, when justice incredibly peaked in. Had Obama turned in just one corrupt Democratic politician in Chicago, just one, I would think different, but he is no change. Frankly, he is a whore’s whore and I see nothing unique about this skell, glomming something that he had no right owning, and selling his soul politically without batting an eye. He lacks effect, like a stone cold killer. Obama sure can lecture about morality but you just won’t catch him practicing it.

This media is in the bag which is disgusting - but Brooks claims all this substance when there is absolutely none - and why, because he knows Niebuhr, give me a break.

Bombast on the part of Mr. Brooks does not entitle him to rule.

In fact, Sarah is the death knell for the RINOs in the GOP. Particularly as she is now the heir-apparent.

Cheers!

David Brooks is not a conservative, nor has he ever been.

[Kitanis]

Brooks is a Cancer to the Journalistic Community

[Travis McGee]

Are Brooks and Peggy Noonan dating? They've been drinking too much Manhattan Koolaid.

I wish both of these elite effete RINOs would just GO AWAY.

Minus_The_Bear says: “Romney and his supporters are scum.” What do you say?

I say, "I am rubber, Minus_The_Bear is glue...." Or at least that is what I would say if I were in kindergarten.

Speaking of school, did anyone else see Mitt take Lou Dobbs to school yesterday? The American voter did not deserve Romney and now have the candidates they deserve.

[grey_whiskers]

Separated at birth?

[grey_whiskers]

He's attracting the queers. /sarc>

"Tingle up the leg" and all that.

On second thought, belay that sarcasm tag.

Cheers!

[grey_whiskers]

...and the founding fathers, who also foresaw the possiblities for corruption, and planned for citizen government (cf. Buckley's government by the first 200 names rather than the Harvard faculty).

Brooks is merely a hagfish who worries that his parasitic sinecure as a member of the chattering class will be abolished and he will have to turn tricks in Thailand, should we ever return to the vision of the founders.

Cheers!

Brooks has gone completely native.

He’s Conrad’s Mistah Kurtz, lying feverish in his Upper West Side hut, muttering, “Palin...the horror! The horror!”

[bethtopaz]

I would say that Minus_The_Bear needs to scrape the scum off his brain so he can think more clearly.

[PerConPat]

Who is David Brooks...

He is just another excellent reason not to ever willingly contribute hard earned money to the Rat playground known as PBS.

[Tax-chick]

D Brooks is funny like Mel Brooks

He doesn't make me laugh.

[Hoodat]

You’re damn right. Romney and his supporters are scum.

That's "Mr." Scum to you, dipwad.
