RINO virus

I was going to fisk David Brooks’ latest sortie against non-establishment Republicans, but Mickey Kaus has already done the job, and done it well.

Love this line:
Brooks thinks he’s a “mainstream conservative”? If so, he is an “insular information loop” of one.



“Pardieu, but this man Brooks is a fellow after my own heart!”

Update: RINO politicians may occasionally cast a conservative vote, and are otherwise sometimes useful in supporting party solidarity, but they will always find a way to let you down - usually at the worst possible time, and frequently out of spitefulness against the conservative wing of their own party (or even for no known reason at all).

There is something very Vichy about that face, I just can't seem to put my finger on it.

If a Republican Congressman would put a hand on David Brooks inner thigh more often then he probably wouldn't lash out and write columns like that.

Snow is "an iconic Senate moderate"?
Iconic I'll accept, but "moderate"? She just liked jerking the GOP around. Now they won't play her game, so she's going home.

Works for me.
