I don't know how Lehrer can sit there and listen to him, or Mark Shields can control himself from strangling him each time they are on together.

5. He is a regular talking head on PBS NewsNight...and very, very
hard to listen to - because his logic is so singularly twisted.

2. David "Teeny Little Girly Hands" Brooks?
He's a genius in his own mind. I would really like to know why he is employed at PBS, NPR, and the NY Times. Is he the only conservative in the country who qualifies? Do the rest all drool on camera? What's the deal?

3. Isn't it amazing
That he collects a check for his oppinions? I'm rarely offended by things that he writes and says because I'm too busy trying to figure out his logic or get his point. I'm usually just left with my mouth open, amazed that anyone but his mother listens to him.

4. Welcome to DU.
On the rare occasions I bother to listen to him, I am left with my mouth open, too.

8. An institution who needs to be retired.....

before he makes an ass of himself like Novak.

Actually, that would be a good thing. :)

10. I saw this guy
Give a speech in front of some Yong Conservatives, and half the speech he spent trashing his employer the NYT, and bashing the city he lives in. I was very dumbfounded after that.
