David Brooks?  Most interesting.

Just goes to show me that even people with whom you mostly disagree have observations and ideas worth considering.

It was interesting that he seems to assume carefully-rational-thought is the default and metaphorical reasoning is just a shortcut. I think Lakoff and Johnson would think that backwards.

(Watch out for Brooks: most everything he writes builds to the conclusion that existing power relationships are swell and should be reinforced.)
