I don't know how anyone who has heard Brooks on NPR over the last eight years can call him a liberal. Gary, have you heard any of his discussions there in that period?<br><br>Sunil<br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">From: philosopher.joe@gmail.com<br>To: jampot@roadrunner.com<br>Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2009 21:19:31 -0700<br>CC: vision2020@moscow.com<br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] NYTimes: In Search of Dignity<br><br><div>Brooks thinks that Obama is a model of dignity.

Since Brooks seems to stand in awe of your deity of the moment,
it really seems inappropriate to refer to him as conservative, moderate or
otherwise and it wouldn't seem to matter much to me whether he's offended or
not. As a BHO supplicant, he's part of the problem and none of the
solution.</font></div>

<div>Did you read the Huffington Post article, Crabtree? It was pretty funny
but I don't see any mention of Brooks being a "liberal lapdog" or having
"quasi-conservative credentials." Where did you get that from? Maybe he's not
offensive or narrow-minded enough to fit your definition! </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>But guess what? Repubican's LOST the last election for the White House
and Democrats now have a super-majority in congress. So you might consider not
offending the few moderate conservatives who haven't jumped the sinking ship.
Or perhaps not! Palin in 2012! <br><br>Sent from my iPhone</div>
