What a tool. I'd like to have him explain how this statistic is relevant to...anything.

David Brooks likes to do the same thing with gerbils that Richard Gere does.

Stick to gerbils, Dave. At least you know them firsthand.
To: Bloody Sam Roberts
More people saw their toes off and eat them as Hors d’uvres than know who David Brooks is or who care about his opinion.

IF that’s true, then there are more ferret owners than CNN,MSNBC, and all the other news channels combined. Makes for a lot of ferret poop.

David Brooks is no conservative.
He’s an intellectually dishonest, leftist enabling twit.

Hey David... many more ferret owners use the NYT for cage lining than read the rag... and I’d bet you I’m closer to the truth than you...

Looks like he ferreted out that factoid from this article
http://www.vailvalleyinstitute.org/amdiv/Fiorina.html
*******************
There were roughly ½ million people on this e-mail list. Now in absolute numbers, thats a big number — 560,000 people. That happens to be the same number of Americans who own ferrets. And since ferrets are illegal in California and in New York City that number is clearly an underestimate. So, in other words, if you go out and pick out a random American voter, the odds are higher that that person owns a ferret than that that person was on Howard Deans e-mail list.

To: Bloody Sam Roberts
i want to amend my earlier post. been thinking, ferrets don't strike me as particularly “liberal”.
so its probable most people who own a ferret watch fox news. therefore i think it unlikely that more people own ferrets than watch fox news since that implies that most of the non fox watching public is disproportionately ferret owning.
plus ferret owning is regional, and in those high ferret ownership (also right to work right to ferret states) fox watching is higher than the non ferret NY media market.
statistically speaking of course.
