David Brooks Is An Elitist Douchebag

NY Slimes Times columnist David Brooks is the very embodiment of what’s wrong with the GOP. He’s a pompous jackass who gets weak in the knees around other ivy league asshats like him.

In his latest column , Brooks waxes poetic about the current plight of the “educated class” in America. By “educated class” he’s of course referring to ivy league a-holes who talk like he and the president do.

Brooks and his hideous elitism make me want to vomit. It’s the so-called “intellectual class” that has brought this country to its f*cking knees.

What this country needs is a president and a party that relies on common sense rather than phony intellectualism.

Just because you went to Harvard or Princeton doesn’t mean you know dick about running the country. All it proves is that you’re good at going to school. Show me what you’ve done in the real world.

I’ll take a self-educated businessman who creates something from nothing over some jerk with a bunch of fancy degrees any day of the week.

    The same ones that force banks to make loans to people that could not be paid. the same “intellectuals”, who feel that allowing nuclear energy production can’t be allowed, but are crying about global warming and man-caused climate change, due to CO2 expellations.

    Mr. Brooks is a complete douchebag.

    A guy like Brooks would have been one of the high-collar fops having a coronary at Old Hickory’s inauguration 170 years ago when the frontiersmen camped out on the White House lawn with homemade whiskey and homegrown chew in their saddle bags.

    Remind me of the last time that anthropological studies of “subconscious racism” have been applied in any practical sense to solve a problem. Pray tell, when was the last time that a modern philosopher had an original idea that had merit, or substance?

    As far as I can tell, the “educated class” (by which I mean our “cultured” friends in the “soft sciences” and fluff academics) hasn’t contributed to society in any measure for some time now, and I don’t see that changing soon.

    If Brooks is a Republican…. then Rush Limbaugh is a Democrat.

    Brooks is a successfully-planted liberal in GOP clothing… a closet liberal Democrat ready to be
