David Brooks and Tom Friedman both annoy me sometimes but have a way of being right when they're right. But here's the thing about what Brooks said--quoting someone else--about how government shouldn't be transparent for the same reason middle-aged people should wear clothes. I'm not going to say there's nothing to that, but I also agree with Gail Collins' retort. I mean, even Madonna needs to wear clothes (as does Angus Young), but so does Lady Gaga.
This is the kind of debate over the D.C. bag tax I like to see.
