George Will is one of the most intelligent commentators of the day. The fact that he does not agree with a position of yours makes him no less intelligent.
I think he's lost a few IQ points over the years. I think it is an inescapable side effect of being inside 495.
George will is in the tank for Rudy and has had it out for Fred (whom he sees as a threat for Rudy) since rumors were out and about that Fred would win.
Just the fact that he is willing to sell out his conservative principals and tarnish his reputation with conservatives everywhere by supporting Rudy tells you everything you need to know.
Every hit-piece editorial that he does against Fred, and there have been many, is motivated by his FEAR OF FRED!
Also, the fact that he is willing to throw his principles away to support somebody so clearly antagonistic to his principles leads one to truly question your characterization of George Will as intelligent!!
I'll take Charles Krauthammer any day for raw intelligence.
I am sure that he is intelligent.
Let me pose this question - Who would you rather see on the lecture circuit - Him or Ann Coulter. I don’t doubt his smarts - it is his dry delivery that I have an issue with.
After reading this column, it seems to me that he is trying to score points with his ABC/WaPost buddies- must be a big gala that he wants to be invited to.
I couldn’t agree more. I don’t always agree with him, but for the most part, he brings a sharp mind and an outstanding command of the language to shine light on clearly and carefully thought-out arguments. It seems to me that he makes good points here. I’ve been busy, so I haven’t been following Fred’s entry closely, but I’ve heard other credible conservatives saying similar things as George Will has.
The fact that George Will is a shill for the liberal Rudy Giuliani, exposes a less than steller intellect. In fact, lets not pull any punches. Will is a royal Rooty butt kisser. Exactly the reason for Will offering up this hit piece on FredT.
No, but this column does. Levin dissects how he argues himself into knots here.

Fine...but he’s in the tank for Rudy.
