Brooks doesn't nail it like this always, but he is a more consistent conservative than, say, Safire, and more often funny too.

David Brooks was with the conservative The Weekly Standard (Bill Kristol et al), until a few months ago. Guess NYT needed someone with a clear mind!

Thanks for the info. I will be looking for more of his work.
I'm surprised that the NYT prints him.

If you will allow, Mr. hellinahandcart, I'd like to refocuse our attentions on your post (#12), for I see that you realize Mr. Kerry's quote, from the article; Kerry noted, "I think that the president today made the right decision to try to establish a process which will maintain the capacity of our forces, protect them, and to disengage while simultaneously upholding the mission we have set out to accomplish." would have the result, in effect, of requiring our troops to perform the balancing/multiple juggle act, portrayed in your posted graphic---while under fire. Bring our troops home? Send in the clowns??? If it could only be so...
