the ad for timeselect--the pay service that gives you access to op-ed writers brooks et al-- boasts classic david brooks. and each time i see the ad on line i think--yes let's hear more from the neocon who cheered us on to war in iraq and then told us when things were going badly that the war in iraq had very little importance in the relative scheme of things. when offered the nyt promo deal to subscribe to timeselect i emailed the nyt and suggested they would certainly make more money by introducing timesdeselct--in other words more readers would pay not to read the likes of david brooks!

time for the times to get rid of david brooks, its in family failed publisher.
