Was It Sen. Jeff Sessions Who Fondled David Brooks' Leg?

Well, it's about a one-in-forty shot for Sessions, anyway, and it's raised by one of his constituent/journos (see below) here, partly in good fun, but with edge.  You may recall that several days ago we posted here a video of the NYT columnist David Brooks on TV revealing, with a laugh,  that a certain (unnamed) GOP senator had fondled his leg under a table throughout a dinner. He was talking about the loss of "dignity" in D.C. And how.

Now the Tuscaloosa News Associate Editor and Online Editor Tommy Stevenson at his blog  has called on Brooks to reveal that senator's name, otherwise all GOPers in that body will be suspects, even his own Alabama reps. Or reporters could toss out names, such as Sessions, and see if Brooks will fail to deny: "And I would print his answer, in an effort to perhaps get him to clear the whole matter up."

An excerpt follows (the link above includes transcript of the earlier Brooks claims):

Now I am not trying to be snarky here about a fellow journalist. I am just trying to make the point that Brooks probably wouldn't let someone he was interviewing get away with a sensational allegation that tars a whole class of people with suspicion, or at least he wouldn't print it if he or she did spread such gossip.

Therefore I think he owes it to those who have not grabbed the inside of his thigh to exonerate them. That's only fair, isn't it?
