David Brooks has an op-ed column in today's NYT titled "Why not Here?"
In this column he waxes eloquent about the transformations being wrought by Bush's War on Iraq from Lebanon to Syria to Iran.For thsi morally obtuse man, the irony of asking such question with regard to his own home when the election fraud perpetrated in two major national elections does not seem to have registered. I guess this is why he has gained the spotlight as an op-ed contributor to the newspaper of record: Ignoring the Obvious.

1. The man is a total and complete ass. If you would look up schmuck
in the dictionary I am sure it would have his picture next to the word as an example.

2. Just curious
Why does everyone insist that election fraud was committed? The election results weren't that far off from what national polls were saying prior to the election. Sure Diebold is creepy, but isn't it just slightly possible that the majority of people in the country did vote for Bush? If not, what evidence do you have?

3. Well 2000 was certainly fraudulent.
The "Felon" voter purge in Florida is enough to nullify it imo.

4. Good point
That needed investigation. But what about this election. Lots of DUers talk about it, but I haven't heard any convincing arguments. Its like they can't believe they lost. Like I said, never underestimate...
