Bo-Bo has gone off the deep end:
LITERALLY. David Brooks says, oh yeah, you liberals think the Foley scandal is bad, well, there’s an underage seduction in The Vagina Monologues but you liberals love that, don’t you?
Stunned onlookers point out to Brooks that The Vagina Monologues is a play, whereas Mark Foley is a real person. Ann Althouse — she takes pictures, you know! — responds:
The third letter notes Brooks’s omission of the “simple point” that what Mark Foley did was “real” and “The Vagina Monologues” is “make-believe.” But, again, the enthusiasm for “The Vagina Monologues” is very real.
Let’s see. Liberals like “The Vagina Monologue” which has a scene depicting an inter-generational seduction. Therefore, as a liberal, I’m a hypocrite if I criticize Mark Foley’s pursuit of young boys — despite the fact I’ve never even see the play (gay men are not its target demo). This is delusional thinking. Literally.
There are a lot of things you could say to this. You could try to explain to these people the concept of fictional characters. You could try to explain that not every character in every scene speaks for the author…
It would all be a waste of time. Some kinds of ignorance are so obviously the result of hard, patient work that all you can really do about them is marvel at God’s creation and move on.
Amen.
Trying to explain anything to do with reason to David Brooks is tantamount to explaining an “Iraqi Sunset” to a flat worm as Brooks, like his idol, George W. Bush, is cursed with the worst malady known to history, THE BLINDNESS OF THOSE WHO WILL NOT SEE!
This is why Brooks and all those blind fools are so willing to fallow the GREATEST KNOWN FOOL IN ALL HISTORY over the cliff to self destruction!
Brooks is so idiotic that it amazes me that he has a following. What next?
