Update: David Brooks is Still a Tool
More on today's column later, but here's a classic Brooksism:
Since 9/11, the U.S. has had little success in influencing distant groups.
I'd say we've done a great job in influencing distant groups. I'd say we've been pretty successful in further radicalizing some already scary extremists and we've done a terrific job of alienating almost all our former allies in Europe.
Ah, sweet success.

Yes, as my dear husband -- who has very little to say about such things as a rule -- said recently: "Well, Bush said you're either with us or against us, and he got his way. They're against us."
