OOOK. serial confabulator David Brooks on Lehrer right now

[buycitgo]

seen his stories, in which he ADMITS to have made stuff up?

daily howler has some good, recent bits on him

other, longer pieces too

COMPLETELY untrustworthy

not to mention smarmily delusional

good job hiring HIM, NYT, you liberal bastion

[buycitgo]

1. sadr is thug, brownshirt, opposing sistani

repeats brownshirt, thug

making desperate effort to take over!

take over?

are you insane?

he wants to create an Iranian style regime

are they gonna be with him, or are they gonna be with us?

we can win!

guess who said all that

[buycitgo]

2. even LEHRER wimp isn't buying it

he claims he actually talked to somebody

why believe A WORD you say?

LIAR

he says we can't allow "potential Hitler" like Sadr to gain power

good choice of words, twit

Shields, to his credit, makes fun of Brooks using Hitler comparison

[buycitgo]

3. Lehrer........quoting Kerrey about civil war in Iraq if we don't wise up

Brooks defends, by not being able to defend!

what's happening is worse than admin is letting on

on other hand this is NOT fullscale national war

duhhhhh, not YET!

no good answer, Dave

we're FUCKED, aren't we?

not to mention those poor people, whose country we are DESTROYING as you sit there with that halfwitted SMIRK on your lying piehole!

[buycitgo]

4. Shields: we have a DRAFT! now!

cause the soldiers can NOT come home

Brooks, of course disagrees, on draft

cites all the dems who wanted more troops

actually criticizes Rumsfeld for trying to "streamline" military

cites bogus poll that says people still support Bush/war

[TN al]

5. Was that an insight into what the RW really thinks when he said ...

..."The American occupation is impossible, er unpopular" and does it show Brooks to be just a mouthpiece of *

[MO_Dem]

7. Mr. Mo_Dem said that comment

"impossible, er unpopular" sounded like a Freudian slip!

[buycitgo]

6. hahahahahahhaa shields sites internal Bush polls

showing that support for him on his core issues, is "Dropping RIGHT through the floor!"

now, two 911 victims

one, Patty Casazza (one of the Jersey girls)

and a SMUG repricklican; EDIT......he started out looking like that, sang a different tune, which you'll see following

Casazza is HAMMERING condi, calling the admin liars, basically

Stephen Push says she wansn't convincing when Rice said they did everything they could. he believes CLARKE! surprised

[buycitgo]

8. Warner: were rumsfeld, beger, etal helpful in finding out what happened?

she SLAMS Rumsfeld for "being in coldwar posture"

why DIDN'T they look into alqaida at all?

Push: much info has come out already; how frequently admin current has said they couldn't have known, when info is out there showing that they COULD have, SHOULD have known.

he's shocked that they didn't DO something, that condi DIDN't KNOW something about planes/missiles

savaging her on Lehman's questions about alaaida cells, etc.

"if it's TRUE they didn't know this stuff, WHY didn't they?"

very effective nailing their asses, he was

[onecitizen]

9. but but but........

isn't David Brooks the guy who wrote "Blinded by the Right?" Or have I confused my Davids?


never mind. I have the book. BROCK wrote that book. I know who Brooks is now.

[buycitgo]

10. david brock.....brooks is a HUGH JASS!

he wrote some sort of Tom Wolfe ripoff about Bobos in America or something, and made half his research material UP, from the prices of meals at Red Lobster, to the rental price of tuxedos in some unhip PA town, IIRC. might have been Ohio

real lying ahole

[buycitgo]

11. now the liar brooks saying they're getting to some serious and

dramatic recommendations

sure, you jag

Shields says this whole thing is an absolute political loser for the monkeyboy

"rice did fine".....guess who said that!

he's defending her "planes as missiles" statement! says it woulda taken a SUPERMAN to have waded through all the data.

how bout if they even TRIED, like ONCE, to check stuff?

she already contradicted herself on that, you IDIOT! she wants no PART of that, you moron! is that the best you can do!

Shields hammering Rice on her unwillingness to take ANY responsibility

says it's her JOB to take nonspecifics and DO something with them

Brooks excuses her once again, saying it happened too SOON, she was understaffed! well WHY were they? not because of congress...they have no approval there, you IDIOT!

Lehrer: score Rice v Clarke.

MS: he was never playing defense (huh?), therefore set agenda. JFK had disaster, took BLAME, moved on.

DB: says he told admin to take responsibility. then cites Wolfo for taking blame for some ahole thing, with media jumping on him, pounding on him. therefore, admin reacted by never taking blame again.

yeah.....right. WHEN did anybody ever criticize them for ANYthing in media? I know, that's a stretch, but you get the idea
