David Brooks Is An Idiot Of Immense Proportions
Just heard him say on Imus that the AG has 2 jobs. One is to be the president's lawyer. This was after he had dumped all over the Edwards', in the very nicest way of course, his concern for the Edwards' children was so touching. The same guy who thinks Americans shouldn't be the ones who determine the outcome of elections. How do people like him get any jobs, much less ones at the NYT?

2. Brooks is blind as a bat
But that is how they are going to get the Edwards; it's rather predictable. THey are going back to the Wellstone Memorial lies well again.

4. Two words always leap to mind whenever I see David Brooks: Sniveling. Weasel.

5. His schtick relies heavily on his "reasonable guy" demeanor
When you peel away at the onion he's pretty much Glen Beck.

7. Stupid me
I thought the WH counsel was the president's lawyer and the AG was the people's lawyer.

Funny how this admin has changed things around.

8. Perhaps We Should Inquire
as to what Fielding's job is, since Brooks says Gonzo is the President's lawyer, it can't be him. Perhaps we should alert the judiciary committee as they keep getting letters from him regarding Rove & Miers which we now know, thanks to Brooks, they can ignore.

11. I don't think he's an idiot...
I think he's worse. He's somebody who knows what's really happening, but has been hired to be a mouthpiece for the Repubs. His pretense at journalistic observations are much more dangerous than mere stupidity.

He's like a mob lawyer.
