Bill Kristol Claims That Republicans Haven't Politicized National Security

Bill Kristol isn't happy that John Brennan accussed the Republicans of playing politics with national security so of course his response is to claim it's actually the Democrats playing politics and claim that the Repubicans would never do that. His proof, they support the president on Iraq and Afghanistan. If I had a dollar for every time the Republicans played the terrorist fear mongering card for political gain I'd be a rich person. As David noted they've been playing this game since 9-11 and don't like that they're finally being called out for it.

7. Bill Kristol is a neo-con propagandist.
If it was up to chickenhawk Bill Kristol we would go to war with Iran.

Why anyone would give Kristol the slightest bit of credence I have no idea.

15. That really is the fool-proof formula, isn't it?
Works like a charm, 100% of the time.

16. I remember the George W. Bush version of the "Hi, Bob" drinking game...
...taking his radio address or any major speech and counting the "911" or "September 11th" references. He was like Kevin Nealon's "Mr. Subliminal" character on SNL, always trying to slip the references into context, and every one of them stood out like a big sore thumb.

:rofl:

17. That's right, Bill
Repukes can only win by "politicizing" (i.e. turning an issue into something it's not) and then selling it to really dumb people.

It's called lying. It's called cheating. It's called stealing.
