Bob, I don't dismiss Brooks; I disagree with him on this point. Different things altogether. In fact, taking the time to post a disagreement shows I don't dismiss him. Two problems with that column of his this morning: unusual, for Brooks, excessive hyperbole ("suicide march"); and usual, for him, claiming his views are "America's" views. As for your comments about openness and bipartisanship, contrast on the openness bit this presidency with Bush. Obama has been phenomenally open. The difference is so great he's simply playing a different game. On bipartisanship, it's the classic "it takes two to play" problem. The Reps have become the party of no. You can't be bipartisan with that.
