[AlGore-08.com]

No LTTEs supporting Brooks or dissing Gore.

Wow.

1. A small thing, perhaps, but maybe indeed a harbinger of something larger. We can hope.

2. most of those letters

Mentioned the fact that the current resident can't even write (oh, all right, he can write notes to Condi asking permission to go to the bathroom) or speak, let alone write a book.

5. It was my favorite, too.

"I learned exactly one thing from David Brooks’s column: the Republicans are afraid of Al Gore."

10. Because everybody at DU got an opportunity to change their handles after the 2004 election

The rest, as they say, is history... :)

7. They let BROOKS review GORE?

Or did he do it in his op-ed? dang, go away for a few days and all hell breaks loose. How much longer can Brooks pull off his pseudo-intellectual BS? He doesn't knos shit, he makes it all up, he was only brought on board to promote the neo-con agenda and now that that's bust I think he should be on his way, shouldn't he?

[Major Hogwash]

8. Who is David Brooks, and why should I care what he says?

Because I don't think he would agree with what I would have to say about him.

9. perhaps the times are indeed a-chaning

we can only hope

11. If you want encouraging signs, check out Swampland

Time's readers are infinitely wiser than their writers. Sometimes there are two dozen cogent letters in a row arguing with Joe Klein, Jay Carney, or some other clueless idiot. Rarely does any reader support them when they write something stupid. Which is still, alas, quite often. But no MSM writer is more reliably stupid and awful than Brooks.

14. Brooks = Another Idiot WRONG On EVERYTHING

wrong on Gore - neocon, moran just like the rest of them.
