KENNEBUNKPORT, MA (IWR Satire) — New York Times columnists David Brooks and Thomas Friedman were married today in a private ceremony at the Bush compound in Kennebunkport.
The couple had been dating for several years after they first met at a PBS taping of the Jim Lehrer NewsHour.
“It was love at first sight, and when I found out Tommy was really an establishment shill and neocon like me, I just had to propose,” said an exuberant David Brooks.
“Oh hush, you big lug. You know how frisky I get when I see that huge pro-business, pro-Israel, pre-emptive and trickle down grin of yours.
We’re really like two peas in pod,” said Mrs. Brooks.
