David Broder Should Retire

Posted by libhom Tuesday, November 17, 2009

cake with WTF written on itWashington Post propagandist David Broder actually wrote this (bolding mine):

The more President Obama examines our options in Afghanistan, the less he likes the choices he sees. But, as the old saying goes, to govern is to choose -- and he has stretched the internal debate to the breaking point.

It is evident from the length of this deliberative process and from the flood of leaks that have emerged from Kabul and Washington that the perfect course of action does not exist. Given that reality, the urgent necessity is to make a decision -- whether or not it is right.

That is a really dumb thing to write. It's as if he doesn't even read over his columns before submitting them for publication.

People are already speculating that Broder might be senile. The quality of his column has been gradually declining for at least a decade. Whether the problem is senile dementia, burnout, or just a general malaise at not having his beloved George W. Bush illegally occupying the White House, Broder should give it up. He's just self parody at this point.

  2. It is the same bullshit, which is why Bush was so popular to begin with: John Wayne, Westerns, Military movies - you don't think. Thinking is for wusses and pansies. You act. Even if the action ends up being wrong. The media (even print media) might as well be nothing but "reality TV."

  5. I take great comfort in the fact that President Obama weighs out his options very carefully before making a decision; it's a sign of maturity and intelligence. Our last president shot first and asked questions later, and look where that got us.

    The header on your blog site only proves that you're clueless.

  9. When Colin Powell advised Obama on Afghanistan recently he said two things main things (from memory). 1) what ever the object, be sure you have a reasonable likelihood of achieving it, and 2) take your time making this decision.

    Who ya gonna listen to Powell or Broder?
