Learning for some is always too late -- "Barack Obama is not who we thought he was." Speak for yourself, David.

On moderation....
A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice.

Dear Mr. Brooks,
You are an even bigger idiot than we knew you were.
Thank you, me

Barry O'bolshevik is precisely who I surmised he was.
What this creep does as regards the economy, the abortion issue; etc., does not suprise me.

Anybody that did ANY reading on Obama’s voting record would be able to tell he’s a Marxist, plain and simple.

On the contrary, Mr. David Brooks (aka “the apparently blind & deaf Jacka$$”), I knew who/what Mr. Barack Hussein Obama was the FIRST time I heard him speak.

What a total idiot. Anybody with a brain in his head knew he was a communist. He should say he is not who we knew he was and ignored it.
To: publius1

You CHOSE not to listen.
You can't fix STUPID!

If David Brooks didn’t know what Obama stood for all his political life, then he (Brooks) is too stupid to have a regular column in a major publication. There is no other possible explanation.

We support health care reform that expands coverage while reducing costs. Yes, we all like a little pie in the sky now and then.
To: publius1
Huh. Maybe David Brooks and these other “moderate” reporters and columnists will now see the value in vetting and investigating every politician who appears. Anyone who even scratched the surface of the Messiah would have seen the radical socialist.
Oh well, four years of his nonsense that this country has to bear.
Thanks for being a kool-aid drinking putz David!
