Kristol: I wish Bush had said "a little more about winning" and "less about helping the Iraqis"...
'During Fox News' panel discussion following President Bush's January 10 prime-time speech, Weekly Standard editor William Kristol declared, "I wish there were a little more about winning the war and a little less about helping the Iraqis." His comments came after he told host and Fox News Washington managing editor Brit Hume that "ne thing that sort of disturbed me about the speech" was that he did not think the president had "use the word 'war' in the speech." "I'm not sure, I didn't hear it," Kristol said. "I haven't done a word search here, but I didn't hear it. I wish there were a little more about winning the war and a little less about helping the Iraqis."'

i am disgusted, and have had a belly full of Bill Kristol making preparations for the observance of his high holy holidays within a bubble of insulated peace as his words are confounding the world with death & chaos

2. If there is anybody on earth who's as nutty as Bush, it's probably this guy.
And he's always got that shit-eating grin on his face.

12. Actually
it would be more accurate to say Irving Kristol is the architect, he and Gertrude Himmelfarb.

8. Someone remind this neocon nutjob that the operation was called "IRAQI FREEDOM".
And I apologize for the redundancy in calling him a "neocon nutjob".

17. Bill Kristol on why he doesn't teach: "It takes a lot of time and I am not interested in making that
Edited on Thu Jan-11-07 11:30 PM by nealmhughes
small amount of money in academia." Not a direct quote, but close enough. Some "intellectual," just like his little lap dog Ari Cohen...both pathetic losers who are just money grubbing lazy buttmunchers as far as I am concerned. And their little dog Bay, too!

21. How the hell...
are we supposed to "win" (by Kristol's definition) a war in which our objective is for the populace to not hate us just enough to stop fighting us so we can leave??!!?? Jesus Christ on a pogo stick!
