No Second Thoughts

I laughed out loud several times reading this satirical criticism of the Democratic party's response to growing discontent. Still, David Brook's witty humor couldn't mask the hypocrisy in his blaming the Democrats for the simple and unavoidable nature of political parties. Sure, no party likes to admit they're wrong. Furthermore, political parties do tend to focus on the weakest members of the opposing party in order to strengthen their image. None of this is ideal behavior, but if Brook's is trying to argue that only the Democratic party is guilty of this sin, I'm not buying it.
