Won't ANYONE Put David Broder Out to Pasture? Please!

Yet another data point for my case (as if another one were needed) that David Broder is an unfortunate combination of a pointless sap and someone who doesn't seem to know the first thing about the way politics and Washington actually work in 2006. He's too attached to the bipartisan/nonpartisan "civil" never-neverland that exists only amid the cobwebs in his mind. And that's before we even get to his seeming inability to get his facts straight (because of course those would get in the way of his dull,dearest fantasies about how DC really was, and should again, be as bland and congenial as a Methodist church social in rural Kansas). Ugh. What a continual waste of column inches. Why? Well, this fairly succinctly gets at the problem.

And in case any of you think I'm being a little nasty, consider Broder's column in which he makes a nasty swipe at Patrick Fitzgerald ... which he neglects to back up with even the vaguest shred of a fact or explanation. I think Broder should explain himself - or he should be the one apologizing, to Fitzgerald.
