Kristol Nacht

Shameless blowhard William Kristol said on Fox News this morning, that Democratic congress members are

"so irresponsible that they can’t be quiet for six or nine months and say the president has made a decision, we’re not going to change that decision, we’re not going to cut off funds and insist on the troops coming back, so let’s give it a chance to work."

I'm interested to know what Kristol thinks the responsibility of the Congress is and why that responsibility necessitates silence in the face of continued Administrative irresponsibility and dishonesty. He's not stupid enough to think that adding 7000 combat troops and about another 13000 support troops will stop our inadequate vehicles from being blown to bits on a daily basis and he's not so stupid to believe that we need to wait nine months in silence before we decide that perhaps we need a few thousand more which will of course result in the necessity of another nine months of waiting and on infinitum. Kristol remembers Viet Nam and Kristol is not a complete idiot so what are we to assume about his honesty and loyalty to the best interests of his country but that he favors totalitarian, militaristic rule and hates the functions of government necessary to open, transparent, honest and democratic government.

Oh, hell why don't I just come out and call him the lying son of a bitch and enemy of freedom that he is? And why don't we line the Fox News Nazis and the bastard who owns them up against the same wall?

"We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. When the loyal opposition dies, I think the soul of America dies with it." That's Edward R. Murrow and not Kristol natch.

The good news is that people, like Kristol is becoming marginalized, where he belongs. The bad news is it's not happening fast enough. But even Joe Six Pack, who hasn't paid much attention up to this point, is starting to hear this crap, and instead of changing the channel, he's pausing a bit, ever more incredulous, bit by bit...

I have slightly more scatological ideas as to where Kristol belongs.

It's sad to think that a guy like Ed Murrow would be slimed, smeared and marginalized today - if he could get on the air at all.
