I Am Shocked: A David Brooks Colum I Actually Like

In today's column, Brooks explains Hillary Clinton's vote and her comments on the Iraq war resolution. Clinton is a very intelligent person and she sees the complexities in important issues and appreciates that they need to be taken into account. Bush and most other people like to simplify things, sometimes to an extremely dangerous degree.

Brooks concludes that Clinton does not need to apologize for being who she is and liberal critics should consider whether they want for President a stupid blunderer like Bush or a careful thinker like Hillary Clinton.

I know what I want and I'm delighted that Brooks has helped to illuminate this critically important decision.
