New York Times columnist David Brooks gets a lot of hate mail. And he doesn't read the comments section, according to Yahoo News.

Davey's such a douchebag that half of them were probably written by the assistant.

The libs hate him because they think he’s a conservative.
We hate him because he pretends to be a conservative.
RINOs love him, no matter what.

He’s hated by the Left because he poses as a conservative. He’s hated by the right because he’s about as conservative as the Pope is Muslim.

Hated?

Yes.

Why?

Because you pretend to be a Conservative, and get paid for it.

Sorry Brooks, but you’re slobbering love fest over Obama in 2008 meant you were dead to me thereafter. No true conservative would have supported Obama then or now.

Dave, buddy, I hate to break it to you, but you aren't read on a mass scale.

This is the guy who fell in love with Obama (I mean literally) because he had a crease?

Why would anyone bother with hate mail?

he doesn’t read them because they are psychologically damaging. His assistant reads them. Sounds like a can’t lose wooers comp case.
