In Brooks' case he willingly ignored all the evidence of his eyes and ears, and the pleas of whoever he was undermining to support war criminals, racists, and bigots. For decades. And now, the final glorious result of all his work turns out to not be to his liking? Great. Here's a shovel, David. You suck. Now get to digging. And no, we're not renewing your column next year.
