This probably isn't the dumbest line in David Brooks's column about Kerry's speech, but it's the most mystifying:

He hit Bush from the right, and when he got around to bashing the Saudis, I thought I'd wandered into a big meeting of The Weekly Standard editorial board.

Hunh?

How long has Fahrenheit 9/11 been playing? Does Brooks not even know what's in it? Does Brooks literally not know that deep distrust of the Saudis is common on the left? Is he truly unaware that Democrats other than Kerry (e.g. Bob Graham) have expressed similar sentiments?
