Through the kindness of a subscriber, we have the gist of David Brooks' column in which the popularity of The Vagina Monologues with liberals is juxtaposed to their righteous indignation over Foley's IM dialogues. I've never seen TVM, but I've read enough to get the idea. It's like an encounter group for frigid women.

What a hammer blow! Too bad the Times won't let that one through the fence, but it's out anyway, and it will be repeated endlessly to demonstrate the outrageous hypocrisy of Democrats over the Foley Scandal.

Foley should have written a play, left Congress and outed himself. He'd be a celebrity and liberal hero today, and performing The Phallic Monologues around the country.
