David Brooks is male Peggy Noonan. Also, remember his employer.
It is not hard to say whether Woodward does more harm than good.
I really don’t know why anyone listens to him.
Thanks for the links anita. I read this one [Jim Ronca being a “staunch Republican”] on FR last week. Not one “correction” or apology from the DBM. They are beyond scum these days.
This article makes my day!!!!! It’s the result of writing pieces like the Ronca above an never saying you were wrong, even though the proof is there.
Media General’s 2Q Profit Dips
My pleasure.
re: DEPSECDEF
He should’ve written:
Senator Clinton,
Due to the propensity of classified and other documents turning up with your fingerprints...
Due to your husband’s administration and the destruction of Ops and National Security...
Due to your seven sister organizations...

Woodward wants to reassure us that this notion that there will be a slaughter in Iraq is just being made up and probably won’t happen.
Timmy tries to bolster that idea. We were wrong about everything else, he says, so maybe we’re wrong about the potential for genocide. (No, we are not.)
Did anyone think to ask (why do I bother), why the Cornyn amendment re: senate sense of withdrawal turns Iraq over to AQ and others and it’s a bad idea, passed 90 something to four the day before the pajama party?
Has anyone asked yet, Why they asked for a change in strategy, took Petraeus through hell, approved him overwhelmingly, back in of extra troops in three weeks ago, success, then this... why?
Big Slap down to Juan by brit, and not a funny one, but quite a serious one:
JUAN: YOU NEED TO READ THE NEWS MORE CAREFULLY BECAUSE RIGHT NOW WE ARE WINNING (surge success).
Very serious smack down and a very well deserved one.
Exactly
Brit got the last word today, instead of running-out-the-clock Juan!
“Juan, you need to read the news more carefully.....”
Wow! It was beautiful.
Hillary Clinton is making a big mistake in this to please her nutroots. Kerry found out meddling with military is a dangerous thing. Unless she make amends this will come back to haunt her like SBV.
Brit got the last word on Fox .. after alot of yapping from Juan about we are losing and need to leave Iraq .. Brit suggested to Juan that maybe he should read the news more carefully and he might realize we are winning
Bah, how did you like Kerry’s Turneresque NK like statement on what happened after we pulled out of Vietnam?
What’s up with Brit... he’s not retiring and decided to stay? I hope.
You are welcome. Off to church now.
Juan was also talking about spouses on Beltway Boys yesterday. Sounds like he wants to be in the front row for whenever the purse fight starts. Wonder which member of the Edwards family will go in first.
Oh and one more thing that I found extremely interesting
Bill Krystol while making a point how far left the dems have gone ... mentioned how the DNC Candidates and leaders are going to the Daily Kos Convention in August ... but non are going to the DCL Conference .. a group that Bill Clinton start and was to be the new democrats
No idea. Some misunderstanding between him & the shouter who almost aquired several news controls @ NY. Did you note the shouter stopped coming in the middle to report HL on SR?
Did you see this?

You know, obviously the MSM has no respect for life or death, let the lady get cold already:

It would be an utter disaster and defeat for the US to have Pakistan, and it’s nuclear arsenal, fall into the hands of a hard line Islamist regime.
Iraq, like Italy in 1943, was the place we had the means, and the methods, to fight the this enemy. Contrary to all the senile stupid blustering from the DC Old Boy’s club, there WAS NO WHERE BUT IRAQ for the US to go to after Afghanistan.
EVEN if Al Gore won in 2000 and 09-11 happened we would STILL be doing the exact same thing in Iraq. There was NO other viable strategic choice for the USA.
Love the way the Do Nothings on both the Right and the Left desperately try to manufacture some reason to be against Iraq.
The dirty little secret here is that Wallace and Hillary and the rest of the DC Clown Posse don’t want US to be ANYWHERE. However, they KNOW the Country was demanding SOMETHING be done in the aftermath of 09-11 so they continually manufacture excuses why we should be anyplace but Iraq rather then admit they have been all wrong about International Relations since Vietnam.
