OK, while I can, allow me to ask this question…

…is there anyone more useless, inane, or ridiculous as an opinion writer than David Brooks?

See this from NYT where he pontificates:
There’s a big difference between the Republican and Democratic campaigns: The Republicans have split on policy grounds; the Democrats haven’t. There’s been a Republican divide between center and right, yet no Democratic divide between center and left.

But when you think about it, the Democratic policy unity is a mirage. If the Democrats actually win the White House, the tensions would resurface with a vengeance.
R-i-i-i-g-g-g-h-h-h-t. This is the guy to write a really objective analysis of what a democratic administration would be like.

Sure. OK. It's like asking the Marquis de Sade to comment on the benefits of torture. He would be sure to condemn it while applying the lash to some hapless soul.
