Charlie Pierce (Esquire) eviscerates David Brooks
Earlier today some DUer posted a link to the truly vile Brooks column in today's NYT.
At this link: http://www.esquire.com/blogs/politics/david-brooks-charles-murray-6649112 Charles Pierce, the most excellent political blogger for Esquire, guts Brooks, and the equally vile Charles Murray, whom Brooks is b-j-ing in this column.
Sample:
"Which did not prevent the David Brooksies of the day from complaining throughout the 1950's and the 1960's that things were going to hell in a handbasket because of Commies in the schools, comic books at the drugstores, girls in tight sweaters, and Jerry Lee Lewis. This makes Brooks and Murray the latest in a long line of scolds. And if the only metric you cite for "behavior" is white kids born on the other side of the blanket, you really should stop thinking so much about how many people are fucking out there without your permission. "
Best snark on Brooks in the comments section: "It's like a chimp fucked a list of logical fallacies."
