I wish there was a liberal website where liberals could say what they really think about these motherfuckers

She gave it to him and the media. Dang. I could watch that every morning.

"Kristol should join the Iraqi army!" HA!

...would take too kindly to having anything she said called "cute."

Mr. Kristol can take Lindsay Graham with him.

I love KVH! The only thing surprising about this was the fact that she was even allowed on the panel. Outnumbered ten to one, but allowed to speak. I suppose that is an improvement of sorts.

these people have no credibility whatsoever and it is an insult to thinking people to even have to listen to that warmongering chickenhawk bastard

In front of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in February, 2002, this dope said -

The one point I would make is that I think in all the discussion of risks we have lost sight of some of the rewards of a reasonably friendly, reasonably pro-Western government in Iraq. It would really transform the Middle East. A friendly, free, and oil-producing Iraq would leave Iran isolated. I think Syria would be cowed. The Palestinians would, I think, be more willing to negotiate seriously with Israel after this evidence of American willingness to exert influence in the region. Saudi Arabia would have much less leverage, if only because of Iraqi oil production coming on line, with us and with Europe.


So, what in the HELL are you waiting for, Bill? Go! Go, be an ambulance driver on the front lines! It's gonna beat that armchair chicken-hawk role you played. You could actually go now and then report back how much better you've made your so-called, " war on terror" 12 years later.

Kristol should be tried with the rest of them… all the chicken hawk criminal fucks that never read their history nor cared what they bobbled about in front of the media. It didn't affect them physically or financially at all, much the contrary.

Remember when Lloyd Bentsen stuck a pin in Dan Quayle's comparison of himse;f to JFK: "Senator, you're no John F. Kennedy" and all Quayle could do was blurt out "That was uncalled for, Senator". You knew that Bentsen got the best line of the debate, and all Quayle could do was whine.

"That's a very cute line," is Bill Kristol's similar whining.
