Who knew? His June 18th column has some pretty good lines:
- [Grover]Norquist is the Zelig of Republican catastrophe. His method is always the same. He enforces rigid ultimatums that make governance, or even thinking, impossible.Brooks also takes on one of my targets, the radio gasbags:
- Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann produce tweets, not laws. They have created a climate in which purity is prized over practicality.
The Big Government Blowhards. The talk-radio jocks are not in the business of promoting conservative governance. They are in the business of building an audience by stroking the pleasure centers of their listeners.Conor Freidersdorf provides some telling gasbag pronouncements that leave no doubt in my mind that they are willing to see America default as long as they can keep their ratings.
