Our Mr Brooks

I list a blogger on my Blog Role who values anonymity above notoriety (I know, weird ain't it?) and so he writes under the moniker "driftglass".

He's been watching out for us by keeping a sharp eye on David Brooks.  Most of it's pretty good; all of it's readable; and sometimes he straight up blams it into the bleachers.
Full of that Yankee Doodle Dumb.

In that dim and distant Whig utopia of Long Ago we celebrated stick-to-itiveness, Jesus, the Torah, lunch-pail heroes, and people who got rich by gumption and grit.
Now everybody grubs for money, people wipes their heinies with the Book of Corinthians, the rich behave like assholes and nobody cares.
Nobody except David Brooks.

Congratulations, you have now read today's contribution to American journalism by David Brooks in its entirety.
He's also something of a PhotoShop genius.


And he's half of the The Professional Left podcast crew - sharing the mic with the lovely and talented BlueGal.
