One fine day you will be a columnist for a large and well respected media outlet, one that cannot be controlled or intimidated by the left or the Kochs.
I can think of 3 possibilities now. Huffington Post, Mother Jones and maybe Sorkin could use a hand writing for Newsroom. Any of them could benefit from someone with the memory of a savant who remembers every hypocritical thing the right has ever done.
Nice touch with the Wolfgang Amadeus in the background.
Brooks is either suffering from dementia like his hero St Ron, or he's hoping his previous cheerleading the unjust war will go down the memory hole. Fat chance, Bobo.
Hey look, he's a very serious person! I'm sure he's always welcome at the best parties. He must be all that is good and decent and wholly American. He couldn't possibly be expected to actually answer that question, could he? That might tarnish his immaculate image. Not that the other very serious people would care or even notice.
So, Brooksie says what Brooksie got wrong was not the IDEA that the U.S. should and could take over an Iraq laden with WMDs and run by a sponsor of state terrorism, but that it would be a lot HARDER than he thought to do it.
"..no day will come when the enemies of this endeavor will turn around and say ,"We were wrong,Bush was right". Setting aside the rich irony of the statement,it also nicely illustrates exactly how Brooks and his fellow travelers viewed those who criticized the war in Iraq:not as opponents but as "enemies". Precisely how they continue to view the left in America to this day.

It just isn't done.
