I Am David Brooks

Thanks Ryan

David Brooks
You are David Brooks! You're exceedingly smart, but
your writing is as compelling as wallpaper. You
are a thoughtful though hard-line conservative,
but lack any of Safire's verbal pyrotechnics.
In addition, you dress like you're colorblind.
Fall down, juvenile.

Of course, I think David Brooks is far cooler than this quiz seems to think.

Here's what the quiz revealed: "You are William Safire! You're ruthless and cunning, and a conservative demigod. You used to write speeches for Nixon. Now you write another column on the English language which has made you the world's most popular etymologist. You hate media deregulation, but love the Bush administration. If only you weren't such a brilliant writer. You bastard."

I'm Thomas Friedman. Lexuses and olive branches, bitches!

Or is that Lexi? I need William Safire.

I'll go with Lexi. If you were a felon who owned more than one Lexus would that make you a lexicon?

I am Nicholas D. Kristof.

I'm Paul Krugman. I answered everything pro-war, and I still got Krugman, probably because I put the economy second to the war and am most likely to read the Economist.
