William Kristol - Clinton would've handled Kristina Better

[RamboLiberal]

but the f'ing asshole is still glad Bush is President. BTW, that reminds me - you still hear anyone saying they're glad Bush is President and not Gore or Kerry? I grew so sick of that BS after 9-11.

William Kristol, the conservative publisher of The Weekly Standard, said of Mr. Bush: "I do think people think he could have showed stronger leadership." But Mr. Kristol expressed doubt that the hurricane would have much lasting effect on the president's personal and political fortunes, because "people are capable of saying, 'The president kind of screwed this one up, but I still basically agree with him.'"

Mr. Kristol added, "I think the Clinton administration would have done a better job in handling Hurricane Katrina, but I'm also glad Bush is president and not a Democrat."

1. WTF?!

What an absolute fuckin moron!

[glitch]

2. Kristol is a genuine, bonafide maroon. The real thing, through and through

he ain't faking that befuddled, glass-eyed look.

[The Backlash Cometh]

11. Well, he might change his mind once the body count is known.

[Frances]

3. And why is that Mr. Kristol?

Because your greedy little soul would rather have your tax cuts than save people's lives.

Now I understand why Jesus said that it is harder for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven.

[Field Of Dreams]

4. Clinton's penis would have handled this better!

Hell, I or anyone else on DU could have handled this better!

[SaveElmer]

5. And why?

Because of the big fat tax cut Bush gave people like him...it's all about money with those people...in my opinion!!!

[calimary]

15. Why wouldn't he be glad bush is president? william kristol is, I believe,

the chair of the Project for a New American Century. His bloody jones for world conquest is being serviced by little georgie. HIS plans are being carried out. He oughta be jumping up and down for joy. ASSHOLE.

[Fridays Child]

6. His statement proves that, for him, politics trumps people. Despicable.

[Gloria]

7. Insane. Just insane. And this is what most of these

jerks think....what unbelievable assholes. Intractable. Can't change one iota. This is why they do such a great job with everything...NOT

[Bumblebee]

8. Sanctity of human life...

So, even according to him, under Clinton more people would have been saved, probably in the thousands, but it's just a minor screw-up on the part of the president, who, as we all know so very well, respects and honors all human life (blah, blah, blah). They would still agree with him that it's more important to rush out of Crawford to save Schiavo than do the same for thousands in NO? Does K. seriously believe that crap? I never liked his politics but always considered him quite smart. I must have been blind!!

9. Kristol is an idiot

He was an advisor to VP Quayle -- nuff said.

[AlGore-08.com]

10. My cat would have handled Katrina better!

eom

[kentuck]

12. Clinton has already handled it better...

:shrug:

[magnolia]

13. I hoped that Logic 101 would be useful...

...someday since it was such a boring class.

1. Clinton can handle a disaster better.

2. Bush can handle the destruction of our democracy better.

3. Kristol wants Bush to be president.

4. Kristol wants the destruction of our democracy.

[johnnyrocket]

14. HAHAHA! That's the way to make an argument! Just say

I hate Democrats no matter how competent and able they are....just because...so screw you!

The Bush apologists are getting to the end of their rope....their arguments are running thinner and thinner....and are now basically conceding Bush is a shitheaded failure, but so what, he's not a Democrat.

That's pathetic.

[kodi]

16. shorter kristol: "my guy kills more innocents, but i love him anyway?"

of course a greasy lipped nazi like kristol would.

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. Ah this is TRULY the face of the Republican Party

[Raiden]

18. What an idiot!

WTF is wrong with these whackos!?

[jokerman93]

19. krystal should shut the f*** up n/t

[elperromagico]

20. Kristol has a habit of saying something in all honesty,

catching himself, and then returning to neocon mode.

Sort of like, "That son of a bitch killed my beautiful wife... but I didn't like my wife much anyway."

[Rambis]

21. He should have been there

At least 2 families could have camped in his nostril openings. What a freakin idiot. The world is falling apart and everything he touches turns to shit but I sure am glad * is prezdent. WTF?

[tomg]

22. Well, there is a kind of all-purpose insanity to it

Seriously, it goes well with anything. This is the original

Mr. Kristol added, "I think the Clinton administration would have done a better job in handling Hurricane Katrina, but I'm also glad Bush is president and not a Democrat."

And now

Mr. Kristol added, "I think the Clinton administration would have done a better job in handling the economy, but I'm also glad Bush is president and not a Democrat."

Or this, if you like,

Mr. Kristol added, "I think the Clinton administration would have done a better job in handling foreign affairs, but I'm also glad Bush is president and not a Democrat."

Or this

Mr. Kristol added, "I think the Clinton administration would have done a better job in handling education and health care costs, but I'm also glad Bush is president and not a Democrat."

Jesus, it even works for this

Mr. Kristol added, "I think the Clinton administration would have done a better job in handling my dysfunctional relationship with my parents, but I'm also glad Bush is president and not a Democrat."

[Mr Rabble]

23. Kristol is the worst of the bunch. Really.

His father and now him are vile neoconservative pigs.

I have nothing but contempt for him.

[sepia_steel]

24. Good!

Party lines are what they care about, not humans, and the more they express that, the more votes they lose.
