Brooks: Palin is ‘a fatal cancer’ to the GOP.

Thinkprogress:

Speaking at an Atlantic luncheon Monday, New York Times columnist David Brooks said Gov. Sarah Palin “represents a fatal cancer to the Republican party” because of her tendency to “scorn ideas entirely,” comparing her to President Bush:

[Sarah Palin] represents a fatal cancer to the Republican party. . … Reagan had an immense faith in the power of ideas. But there has been a counter, more populist tradition, which is not only to scorn liberal ideas but to scorn ideas entirely. And I’m afraid that Sarah Palin has those prejudices. I think President Bush has those prejudices.

My, my, my.. Brooks turns on Palin. Palin turned on NYT Brooks' employer.

Brooks is a sick man. When Bush gave Brooks a personal inview Brooks was drulling like he was in love. When questioned on PBS he was asked to calm down he was so excited.

When Sarah aka Betty Boop was announced as McCain's VP choice, Brooks again was drulling and said she was a better candidate then Joe Biden. After the flirting and wink wink at the VP Debate Brooks gave her and A and even PBS Jim Lerner question what Debate he had seen. It got so bad the camera man cut Brooks from the view.
Yes Sarah lied publicly about the New York Times and David had to choose between his job or Sarah. Brooks is on the no interview list by Obama supporters. I guess David will no longer be a White House insider.

Well Jackie, that is true Brooks won't be an insider anymore.

Falafel King will probably blow a gasket during the Obama term (let's hope,cough, cough I mean there is an Obama term.

And the Weasel Hannity will probably blow a gasket as well.

And Coulter will be foaming at the mouth.

They will have to set up a support group for Faux News and the like so these folks will be able to support each other through it all.
