4. Show me where an Obama supporter linked a guy like Brooks
to attack Hillary.

But look at the bright side, at least Broks and Hil both supported the war so there is some symetry to using him to tear down Obama.

11. Attacks go both way, the point is that the poster used David F'n Brooks
and linked him.

Show me where an Obam supporter linked an article by a right wing Neo-con war-monger to attack Hillary.

SHOW ME.

2. I thought it was a good article - though the poster's subject line was inflammatory
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 09:29 PM by Politicub
There's a lot of good (and bad) about Hillary and Obama in the article. I would suggest you read it. Brooks is just dissecting the exit poll results (and it's stuff we know - educated generally goes for Obama while less education, lower income goes for Hillary).

But he's a good writer, even though he's politically conservative.

7. You're right
It highlights the strengths and weaknesses of each campaign/candidate.

5. Dick Morris and Drudge are heroes around here, so why not David Brooks?

10. Since the poster only joined 3 weeks ago of course he didn't have a clue
of course he now has hidden his profile to hide this fact but what can ya do.

14. You are stalking that poster.
I am beginning to think you actually know him and he has rejected you.

17. I dislike bullshit, and that particular poster has posted lots of it
in only 3 weeks of being on DU.

This is apparent to many on this board.

15. I confess, I'm watching Fox right now
Because MSNBC was doing a story about prisons and I don't care for Larry King Live. But it balanced out because Juan Williams is on with positive talking points about Clinton.
