David Brooks sees a dark future ahead for some supporters of Barack Obama.
  • Babbling Brooks

    As if any more proof was needed that Brooks is a POS, here you have it. Isn't it funny that the elites (both the Republicans and Hillary's inner circle) who Brooks so sorely wants to be thought of as one, got us into the myriad messes we are in today: the economy, with its ever-increasing global shift of capital to the very very rich (Friedmanomics), to unprovoked wars of aggression (neocon wargame fantasizers). Their unrealistic views of how the world actually works are the ideological bases for many of our current ills; yet the Obama supporters who think it's not good to keep repeating the same mistakes over an over (Einstein's definition of insanity) are painted as starry-eyed dreamers. Sorry, this older white male has his feet firmly planted on the ground - even while I am inspired by Obama's eloquent calls for us to take a different path.
