David Brooks is a guy that liberals often point to as a "conservative that they like." I think he's a bit more honest than many - I don't think he's quite drunk the full "movement conservative" kool aid. Still, he quite frequently puts a happy face on some truly poisonous ideas. But, I think his biggest problem is that he really just doesn't have much to write about.
This column is almost incoherent, but to the extent that it is coherent it's actually profoundly offensive.
Arthur Silber has a few more comments.
