Fair enough, Brooks has turned himself into a joke, one who still hasn’t figured out what a mistake Obamao is, an intellectual legend in his own mind, a self-appointed prophet of the Republican Party who is snookered by the Obamarama spoof on America. ...Truth be known, Brooks voted for Obamao because he loves Biden’s mind. It can’t get any dumber than that folks.

David Brooks is a joke.

And that's coming from someone who isn't a Palinbot - or any bot.

I can’t take David Brooks seriously - he’s a joke. Why don’t the leftist tv shows have a REAL conservative on as their token “Republican.?

If she's such a joke, why does he care? If Palin was so insignificant, why does Brooks get so passionate in attacking her?

I have an answer for this. Tens of millions of Americans disagreed with Brooks and he basically fears that we're too stupid, that after all the efforts of the liberal media, WE still don't get it. So, Brooks has to escalate, shout louder in the hope that we'll finally get in and share his opinion about Palin.

Obviously, this strategy isn't going to work. Brooks, relax. If Palin is so incompetent, time will expose this incompetence and unsuitability for higher office. And conservative Americans, unlike all of your liberal friends, don't turn their political leaders into Messiahs. And how's that hopenchange working out with the 'serious', 'intelligent', 'literary', 'smart', etc. Obama aka Ofumble?

How the Presidential campaign with the 'experienced' McCain work out? Who, who was successfully portrayed as erratic and hot-tempered by the Obama campaign. Palin hasn't made any of these huge mistakes and she's the dummy? Okie-dokie.

David Brooks can’t help himself. He wants desperately to be part of the in crowd and dare not think for himself.

This is a quote from Brooks about his first meeting with 0bama in 2005:

“I remember distinctly an image of—we were sitting on his couches, and I was looking at his pant leg and his perfectly creased pant,”

Sounds to me that Brooks has been lusting after 0bama, with or without pants, for a good long while now, so I don’t take anything he says seriously.

-"...but the line “She's bad news for the GOP and everyone else.”"

Actually, there's alot of truth in that statement.

Because, as far I (and many here) are concerned, until there's a complete 'clensing', the current GOP 'brand' is very 'panty-waist' as represented by the "GOP Estblishment". So just ask yourself - and guess who is the only 'single person' who can destroy all that????

David Brooks is a joke. I just can’t take him seriously.

He’s just jealous because Sarah is a better basketball player than the Obamanation and has more executive experience.
