This moron coupled with Mitt Romney's OP-Ed shows just how insane the Right is. There is no hope for these morons. They need to shut up and go away. If you don't read Charlie Pierce, you should. Well-known idiot Bill Kristol Just shut up and go away. "Can Republicans do no better than shamefully to emulate Somerset and Obama ("I assure you nobody ends up being more war-weary than me")? Will no brave leader step forward to honorably awaken us from our unworthy sleep?"Blow me, you monstrous, bloodthirsty fraud, you silly, stupid chickenhawk motherfker who plays army man with the children of people who are so much better than you are, and who would feed innocent civilians in lands you will never visit into your own personal meatgrinder to service your semi-annual martial erection. You and the rest of your cowardly cohort helped prepare the ground for the worst geopolitical mistake the country has made in 30 years. You fought the battle of the Green Rooms and the think tanks while other people's sons and daughters died for your fantasy of how the world would work if you really were the pimply, adolescent Zeus you see when you look in the mirror every morning. The country does not need you lectures any more. The country does not need your counsel. The country does not need your advice. And, as sure as human beings have become dead because of your lectures, and counsel, and advice, human beings about whom you otherwise care nothing, the country does not need your hectoring that it has become insufficiently bellicose to fulfill your newest, blood-drenched fantasies. Even here, even now, you hide behind the skirts of a woman from Indiana who, while I believe her to be wrong, seems to be genuine in her beliefs. You are unworthy of her intellectual camouflage. You should be driven from polite society, consigned to an ideological Molokai so you can no longer infect the rest of us. People should shun you. You should wear the bell for the rest of your miserable days.
He's just joining the chorus of armchair generals who'd like nothing better than for the United States to send more young men to die in the Middle East. It's absurd; these people bleat and yap and stamp their feet about 4 Americans who died tragically in Libya, yet apparently they're fine with the thousands who died as a result of the decision to attack Iraq, and clamor for more of the same, in Iran. Kristol is indeed a chickenhawk, and Niall Ferguson, whose war-mongering article in the Wall Street Journal he's supporting, never served his country in the military either. Two great exponents of the "let's you and him fight!" school of international strategy.
Hell, American combat deaths in Iraq were surpassed by the number of vets that committed suicide afterwards. 22 vets a day commit suicide. A good friend of mine had a son that went to Afghanistan and tried to commit suicide when he returned by stabbing himself in the chest with a pencil since that was the only sharp object they allowed him to have in the psych ward. This was a perfectly normal, very Right-wing kid from an extremely Right-wing family. These dumb ass GOP types spew their war nonsense and pretend it is all patriotism until it comes time to take care of the vets and then they cut funding for servicemen and women without a second thought. I think every time one of these idiots opens their mouths, we should just stuff a combat boot in it to remind them that we don't care what they think.
How could "they cut funding", but not the 55 Democrats in the Senate and whatever Obama is calling himself now? You don't seem to realize it take 3 to tango yet today.
They will not, not while their vile rhetoric strikes a chord within a significant portion of people in America...and the money continues to flow. The bottom-line is that they are making money by BSing, so why would they stop BSing? (See: Sarah Palin)
I'll guess the same reason you were not retro actively aborted at birth once they had a look at ya. Am I close? Hey, you asked a stupid question, and yes, some questions are stupid.
