An historian in the future may want to know whether the public was aware of the hate campaign that the Lefty Fundamentalists at the New York Times were directing at the new leading public intellectual, David Brooks.
I noticed it and am letting my thousands of readers know about it. Joyce Maynard, on June 23rd, reviewing Brooks’ latest book: On Paradise Drive -- How we live now… goes out of her way to be a real smart ass. She smarmily commends Brooks’ book, a little, then tries to knife him in the belly with a favorable comparison to Michael Moore, the leading village idiot of our era.
I noticed and now we noticed this piece of N.Y. Times venom. Lefty hate seems just as hysterical on the east side of Manhattan as it is here in San Francisco. Thanks to Joyce Maynard, I’m buying extra copies of Paradise Drive to give to friends. To my delight, Brooks is such a brilliant writer that every Lefty Fundamentalist friend to whom I have given his early book, Bobo’s in Paradise, loved it.
After I first wrote this blog and two days after Maynard’s slime job, Brooks wrote a piece on Michael Moore. June 26th. Moore seems to provide absurdities for his critics to use, without his even knowing it.
