Judge Jeanine Pirro is kicking Obama’s azz right now on FNC. She’s not afraid to tell it like it is.

Instead of dismissing him...*listen* to him, he’s spot on!

Krauthammer said that if the problems plaguing the health care law eventually lead to its end, Obama’s lame-duck status would not be the liberals’ only problem.

“I would say that what’s really at stake here, is that if this thing really goes south, if ObamaCare truly self-destructs, I don’t know that it’s certain but I would say right now it is more than likely, it would really set back American liberalism for a decade at least,” he said.

Krauthammer explained that he believes ObamaCare is the “completion of the entitlement state” that began with the New Deal and the Great Society. If ObamaCare were to collapse, he said, it would “discredit the entire enterprise of the expansion of government, which is at the heart of ‘Obama-ism.’”

“That’s why I think the liberals are running scared,” he said. “It’s not just one election, it’s the whole ideology that the government knows best...”

If he’d had his way, it would be the Mondale Library.

"Krauthammer is one of our “best and brightest” that doesn’t have a friggin’ clue. If he did, he’d be supporting the tea party instead of the political establishment that has driven this country into the toilet."

I agree. The Kraut hasn't crawled over much broken glass to get from a Mondale Minion to a Juan defender.

falling on deaf ears.

He was very good. I liked his, “it’s the statue of Liberty, not the statue of equality”

Kraut threw the Tea Party a bone tonight, too, in his speech. Mentioned specifically its impact in invigorating and motivating the Right when it needed a boost [in the throws of the Error of Obama].

I was especially impressed with 1) how he views politics as overarching, even supreme to what we normally consider above-the-fray, intellectual, or grander pursuits and 2) his sense of high moral duty he finds in his work; particularly writing and commentary on all things political.

BUT, you know he was once associated with Mondale in the 70's, so we mustn't give him any fair hearing...

I don’t care what *stripe* of Conservative you are.

This is an out-n-war against socialism. Everyday it becomes more apparent, to even the sheep.

Kraut nails it.
I refer you to the 48 Laws of Power. Robert Greene. Napolean Bonaparte.

Geez! In college, I went to a lecture by Cesar Chavez and another one with Mario Savio.

Krauthammer’s roots are in liberalism. His reasoning moved him to the Right decades ago but not quite far enough. He is without question and independent thinker who enjoys the notoriety of archetypical opinion — opinion, however, not necessarily amenable to the often austere truths of conservatism.

Former Mondale people don’t impress me that much.

Well, if you had watched, you’d have heard how Reagan brought him over to the Conservative side.

You guys have been swimming in the sewer of NEOconservatism for twenty years.

Dr. K is an un reconstructed 60’s red. The neocons broke with the USSR back in the 60’s, but they didn’t change stripes.

He is conservative if you think unending American war and world domination is conservative. Do you?

He is pro-abortion.

He wrote that The Holocaust was caused by Christians.

He wants another $1/gallon gas tax because we’re all too free.

There’s nothing conservative about him. The little old ladies (and a few FReepers) who get their info from Fox News think “Oh! He’s so intelligent!”

Pol Pot was intelligent.

Krauthammer is a creep.
